68. Legacy Meader has been posthumously credited for having broken new ground in the area of political humor, particularly in impersonations of the President of the United States. In July 2006, nearly two years after Meader's death, the independent documentary First Impersonator premiered at the Maine International Film Festival in Waterville, Maine, Meader's birth town. The film chronicled Meader's life and death, his rise to fame and equally famous fall from it, and his influence on today's political impersonators.
