This week's episode welcomes Brooke Clement, director of the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library and Museum.

Brooke Clement began her career with the National Archives as an archives technician at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library in Ann Arbor, Michigan. She then held archival and supervisory positions with the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum, the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum, and the Barack Obama Presidential Library.

Brooke joined us to discuss their current major exhibit, “Ford at 50,”… Decisions That Defined a Presidency. The exhibit features artifacts, documents, photographs, and much more to help tell the story of the Ford Presidency.

We also discussed the Betty Ford “mini-exhibit” profiling the “Betty Blip.” The exhibit gives visitors a chance to learn about Betty Ford’s breast cancer diagnosis just six weeks into her husband’s presidency.

Finally, the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Express display returns for the holiday season. It's a model train exhibit with Ford-related pieces built by talented volunteers. The train is in the museum lobby and free to check out!
