This politician was one of the more well-known governors of Indiana but also was a politician who had close ties with Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) over a 12-year period, inclusive of the Depression years and WWII. He had a complicated relationship with FDR, which likely hindered his political advancements. His life story is a blend of triumph and regrets - most significantly having the democratic nomination for president just out of reach on numerous occasions. But McNutt had an impressive accomplishment record – both nationally and internationally. He was very involved in the international politics of the Philippines over 2 decades and helped save 1300 German Jews from the Holocaust. For a number of reasons, very little is widely known about him, and this podcast will highlight his fascinating career. Most of the podcast will be an interview with Dr. Dean Kotlowski, who wrote the in-depth biography on McNutt - "Paul V. McNutt and the Age of FDR": link at Amazon.
Another book by Dr. Kotlowski:
Nixon's Civil Rights: Politics, Principle and Policy
