Ronald Reagan: The Attack That Transformed a Presidency

In the flickering shadows of Hollywood's golden age, a young man from Illinois would rise to capture the hearts of millions not just as an actor, but as a leader of a nation. His name was Ronald Reagan.

Born in 1911, Reagan’s early years were far from the glitz and glamour that would later define his life. But by 1937, at the age of 26, he made a bold decision a decision that would set the stage for everything that would follow. He left behind the only life he knew and headed to Los Angeles, where he would soon find himself in front of the camera, chasing a dream that was as big as the city itself.
