  Margaret Truman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mary Margaret Truman Daniel (born February 17, 1924 in Independence, Missouri) is an American writer and the author of biographies, books on the White House and several best-selling mystery novels.
Margaret is the daughter of 33rd president Harry S. Truman and his wife, Bess Truman.

 American President
Truman served one term, was defeated for a second, and then became presiding judge in 1926, a position he held until 1934.
Truman won the presidential nomination of a severely divided Democratic party in the summer of 1948 and faced New York’s Republican governor Thomas Dewey in the general election.
Truman’s popularity sank during his second term, due largely to accusations of corruption, charges that the administration was “soft on communism,” and the stalemated Korean War.
