Truman Library Institute – Wild About Harry
The Muehlebach Tower of the Kansas City Marriott Downtown was the spot where the Truman Library Institute’s 20th annual Wild About Harry took place on May 2nd. Former Secretary of State Dr. Madeleine K. Albright was the Harry S. Truman Legacy of Leadership honoree, and she and President Harry S. Truman’s grandson, Clifton Truman Daniel, had a fascinating onstage conversation.
