Alice Lee Roosevelt Longworth (1884-1980) was an American writer and prominent socialite. She was the eldest child of U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt and the only child of Roosevelt and his first wife, Alice Hathaway Lee.
Longworth led an unconventional and controversial life. Her marriage to Representative Nicholas Longworth III of Ohio, a party leader and 38th Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, was shaky, and her only child Paulina was from her affair with Senator William Edgar Borah of Idaho.
