Frances
When Baby tells Johnny that her real name is “Frances, after the first woman in the cabinet.” She isn’t kidding! Frances C. Perkins was indeed the U.S. Secretary of Labor from 1933 to 1947. President Franklin D. Roosevelt appointed her during his first term, and she continued to serve throughout all four of his terms. Including two years into Harry Truman’s Presidency.
