Alice Roosevelt Longworth. Alice was daughter of President Theodore Roosevelt and was well know for her boisterous personality. Amongst other things her smoking caused shock amongst high society. When it was brought to Roosevelt’s attention that his daughter was out of control he is said to have replied; “I can be President of the United States, or I can control Alice. I cannot possibly do both.”
