These sons of loggers, shipyard workers and farmers overcame tremendous hardships — psychological, physical and economic — to beat not only the Ivy League teams of the East Coast but Adolf Hitler’s elite German rowers. Their unexpected victory, and the obstacles they overcame to achieve it, gave hope to a nation struggling to emerge from the depths of the Depression. Enjoy encore broadcasts of six AMERICAN EXPERIENCE biographies from the Peabody Award-winning collection “The Presidents.” The special series begins on Monday, August 8 with a two-night special on JFK, and concludes Thursday, August 18 with George H. W. Bush. “These films offer a chance for Americans to explore the lives of the leaders who shaped our country and see how each dealt with many of the same issues we face today — war, poverty, healthcare, immigration, and education,” said Mark Samels, AMERICAN EXPERIENCE Executive Producer.
