Synopsis

From his early days living in small-town poverty, young Dutch Reagan’s (1911-2004) thoughts were always on the future.

Achieving success as an athlete, sports announcer, and actor, Ronald Reagan discovered his greatest role late in life -- as the fortieth president of the United States and “The Great Communicator,” a man with the ability to reach out to the American people and leave a lasting legacy.
