California Quote by Cynthia Nixon
“When Nancy Reagan was newly the first lady of California, Joan Didion came and had an hour-long interview. She thought it went great, and then Joan Didion just eviscerated her in the most - possibly not inaccurate - but in the most devastating way.”
![“Nancy Reagan sort of downplayed that, you know - but she was quite successful. At the time she married Ronald Reagan, I think she was keenly aware that [Reagan's first wife] Jane Wyman's career had eclipsed Ronald Reagan's, so she was very determined not to have that happen.” quote by Cynthia Nixon](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/bd0/cynthia-nixon-3718_careers_nancy-reagan-sort-of-downplayed-that-you_2804428.jpg)
![“[Nancy Reagan] took that career, that obviously mattered to her, and just tucked it away in a box, because she thought, "That's over with now. I'm going to make wifehood my career."” quote by Cynthia Nixon](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/cab/cynthia-nixon-3718_boxes_nancy-reagan-took-that-career-that-obvio_1012924.jpg)
