Today is the 100th anniversary of Pat Nixon's birthday. She was born Thelma Catherine Ryan in Ely, Nevada, just hours before St. Patrick's Day in 1912. Pat Nixon graduated in 1929 from Excelsior High School in Norwalk, California. This is the same high school I graduated from and she was the First Lady during my high school year, so we heard a lot about her. I live a couple of miles from the Nixon Library and am anxious to go visit the new exhibit dedicated to her. The exhibit will be open from March 16th to September 3rd. If you plan a homeschool field trip to the Library, email me and I'll tag along.
