About Bamie Roosevelt
Anna Roosevelt Cowles was the older sister of United States President Theodore Roosevelt (T.R.) and an aunt of First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt. Her childhood nickname was Bamie, a derivative of bambina, but as an adult, her family began calling her Bye because of her tremendous on-the-go energy. Throughout the life of her brother Theodore, she remained a constant source of emotional support and practical advice. On the death in childbirth of her sister-in-law Alice Hathaway Lee, Bamie assumed parental responsibility for T.R.'s daughter, Alice Lee Roosevelt, during her early years.
