Abraham Lincoln will be a definitive biography of the 16th president, the man who led the country during its bloodiest war and greatest crisis. Executive produced by world-renowned presidential historian and Pulitzer Prize-winning bestselling author Doris Kearns Goodwin and Emmy Award-winning RadicalMedia, it is based upon Goodwin's New York Times bestseller, Leadership: In Turbulent Times.

From Lincoln's impoverished childhood to his days as a young prairie lawyer and budding politician, through his unlikely election to the presidency and his assassination only five days after the end of the Civil War, "Abraham Lincoln" offers viewers new and surprising insights into the man consistently ranked by historians and the American people as the country's greatest president. Viewers will learn of the lesser-known aspects of Lincoln's life and leadership through premium dramatic live-action scenes where his humility, empathy, resilience, ambition, political acumen, and humor are on full display. Combined with expert interviews, archival photos and news accounts, Lincoln's letters, writings and speeches, and remembrances from his contemporaries, this miniseries provides a fresh, contemporary understanding of the complexities of young Abraham Lincoln who grows to become President Lincoln, the man who saved the Union, won the war and secured emancipation.
