PRESIDENT DIAGNOSED WITH POLIO IN 1921

Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) was diagnosed with polio at age
39 in 1921 after falling ill while vacationing at Campobello Island,
Canada.

The illness resulted in permanent paralysis from the waist down,
though some medical experts now suggest his symptoms were
more consistent with Guillain-Barré syndrome.

Despite the crippling effects of the disease, Roosevelt used his
experience to create the Warm Springs Foundation to help
others with polio.

The grand opening of the Golden Gate Bridge | CNN Travel

The Golden Gate Bridge, which spans the San Francisco
Bay and connects the city to its northern suburbs, is one
of the world’s most famous structures. Its construction
78 years ago over a deep, treacherous channel was a
marvel of modern engineering.

In this photo, pedestrians walk across the bridge on May
27, 1937 — one day before it opened to vehicular traffic.
