The cast of ‘Hidden Figures’ took a trip to the White House to tell the stories of the brave women who made history in the fields of flight and science.

Co-stars Octavia Spencer, Taraji P. Henson and Janelle Monae accompanied by their director, met with the President and First Lady to celebrate the film and the accomplishments of women.
