Society for Science unveils collection of White House Photos

Society for Science has launched a collection of photos featuring finalists in the Society’s science research competitions, Society staff and program sponsors with presidents, vice presidents and first ladies. The gallery, which includes more than 120 photos and captions, dates back to the Society’s first visit in 1942. At that time, Vice President Henry Wallace met with the very first Science Talent Search class.
The photo gallery features photos with nearly every President since 1942 from President Truman to President Kennedy to President Bush to President Obama. First Ladies include Eleanor Roosevelt, Elizabeth Truman and Michelle Obama. Meeting with the President or a White House representative has been a highlight of the Washington, D.C. experience for many finalists in the Science Talent Search and the Broadcom MASTERS.
The Society was also honored to have finalists from three of our competitions – the Science Talent Search, the International Science and Engineering Fair and the Broadcom MASTERS – participate in White House Science Fairs, hosted by President Obama.
