ROBERT SIEGEL, Host:
Sixty years ago, an only child living in the White House had to endure this...
M: Unidentified Woman: How do you like the Secret Service men following you around on tour?
MARGARET TRUMAN DANIEL: Unidentified Woman: Do you want to take a bet on that?
TRUMAN DANIEL: Oh, I'm positive they don't. I've put my foot down on that in the beginning.
MICHELE NORRIS, Host:
Margaret Truman Daniel, the daughter of President Harry Truman, died today in Chicago. She was 83 years old. In 1950, she embarked on a singing career and was panned by a Washington Post critic. Her father famously pans back, sending the critic this handwritten threat.
SIEGEL: Someday, I hope to meet you. And when that happens, you'll need a new nose.
NORRIS: Margaret Truman survived both her first daughter status and her failed music career. In later life, her name appeared on a string of successful mystery novel.
SIEGEL: And to our knowledge, "Give Him Hell Harry" never again corresponded with his daughter's critics. Margaret Truman Daniel died after a short illness. Again, she was 83 years old.
