Question: Which film has the director born first, Backstairs At The White House or Her Husband'S Secretary?

Elizabeth Jaffray( December 26, 1860 in Ontario, Canada – May 2, 1934 in Ontario, Canada) was an American employed as a servant at the White House in the early 20th century. Jaffray was retained as White House head housekeeper in 1909, a position then equivalent to that of a majordomo. Recruited from an" exclusive New York employment bureau", she became the first female chief servant in White House history. One of Jaffray's earliest, and most controversial, moves was to order the segregation of dining among White House staff. Prior to Jaffray, Caucasian and African- American butlers and valets would dine together, while lower- ranked servants such as maids and footmen would dine separately, though also at a racially integrated table. Jaffrey ordered that the two dining tables be arranged by race, instead of rank. When servants rebelled against the move she threatened mass firings, gaining their ultimate obedience. During her time at the White House she came to be regarded by employees as" a real terror". According to Major Archibald Butt, the aide de camp to President William Howard Taft, Jaffray claimed to have" seen and felt" the ghost of a child she believed was William Wallace Lincoln on several occasions in 1912, around the fiftieth anniversary of his death. The same year she would fret over the corpulent Taft's eating habits, prompting him to promise to go on a diet. Jaffray used horses as a means of transport longer than anyone else at the White House, continuing to be chauffeured in a brougham for her daily shopping excursions into the mid 1920s. Jaffray remained at the White House for 17 years and left in 1926 during the presidency of Calvin Coolidge. Jaffray had reportedly become disgusted by Coolidge's austere spending on White House entertaining; Coolidge, in turn, referred to Jaffray by the nickname" queenie". Grace Coolidge expressed relief at Jaffray's departure, musing that" she has come to consider herself the permanent resident and the President and his family transients". Following her departure Jaffray wrote" Secrets of the White House". Published by" Cosmopolitan", the book was a tell- all about her time at the executive mansion. She was portrayed by actress Cloris Leachman in the 1979 NBC mini-series" Backstairs at the White House". She died May 2, 1934 and is buried in an unmarked grave in Ontario, Canada. <SEP> Backstairs at the White House is a 1979 NBC television miniseries based on the book "My Thirty Years Backstairs at the White House" by Lillian Rogers Parks (with Frances Spatz Leighton).

Eleanor Roosevelt encouraged Rogers to write a diary about her experiences on the White House staff. Those experiences were memorialized in the book "My Thirty Years Backstairs at the White House" written by her daughter, Lillian Rogers Parks, who also worked at the White House as a seamstress. The story was later produced in 1979 as the NBC miniseries "Backstairs at the White House" by Ed Friendly Productions. The role of Maggie Rogers was played by actress Olivia Cole.
