Trivia: Which 1970s President hosted his daughter’s prom at the White House?
Richard Nixon
Jimmy Carter
Gerald Ford
Lyndon B. Johnson
The correct answer is Gerald Ford
So why is this answer correct? : Susan Ford was in the 1975 class of the Holton-Arms School in Bethesda, Maryland, while her father, Gerald Ford, was in office. When her prom committee asked if the White House could host, she conveyed the request to the head usher, who agreed conditionally. All 74 students who attended had to submit their personal information a month in advance. The President and First Lady were on a trip to Europe at the time, so Susan’s aunt Janet chaperoned.
