WIFE OF MARTIN VAN BUREN // #8
Like Van Buren, her first language was Dutch
Died nearly two decades before his presidency
Not mentioned in his autobiography
Heather isn’t a historian, an academic, or an impartial storyteller… but she has read more than one book about every U.S. president. Out of spite. She was dubbed America’s Preeminent Presidential Doodler by one of her favorite authors and she’s been repeating it ever since. When she’s not reading or doodling history books, she’s a freelance graphic designer and illustrator.
