Preview:
When Ronald Reagan left office in January 1988, journalist Bob Schieffer reflected that even after eight years in office, there still remained "an air of mystery" about the 40th President--just who was Ronald Reagan and what made him tick? While no historian would be so bold as to say he or she can define Ronald Reagan the man, this two-hour special constructs a portrait using the defining moments of his 93 years. From his impoverished and nomadic childhood to his arrival as a Hollywood star; his ascent as a union president to a voice for the conservative movement; his position as Governor of California to his ultimate role as Commander in Chief, the special provides insight as to how each moment informed the man and shaped a President. Interviewees include Former White House Correspondent Sam Donaldson, CNN Political Analyst David Gergen and Former Secretary of State George Shultz.
