In 1924, a year into his first term as president, his younger son Calvin Jr. died, and from then on he displayed the symptoms of clinical depression.
He didn’t accomplish much after that.
I challenged myself to find a Sondheim song that would be appropriate for Calvin Coolidge, so here is Norm Lewis singing “No One Is Alone” which seems to be the right sort of song to sing to a person who has just lost a son.
