Seller's Description:
Johnston, Frank (Photographer) Good in Good jacket. 185, [5] pages. Illustrations. DJ has some wear and soiling. Some page discoloration has been noted. For more than two centuries, the White House has been the home of American presidents. A powerful symbol of the nation, it is a uniquely private and public space. Since John and Abigail Adams first moved into the "President's House" in November 1800, hundreds of individuals have worked behind the scenes to help the White House fulfill its roles as a seat of government, a family residence, a ceremonial center, a museum, and an historic building. Witnesses to history and active participants in the nation's story, White House workers are a close-knit community, sharing a distinctive work culture in an exceptional work environment. The Working White House explores the occupational culture-the stories, traditions, memories, and skills-of the men and women who have operated, maintained, and helped preserve the Executive Mansion. Haynes Bonner Johnson (July 9, 1931-May 24, 2013) was an American journalist, author, and television analyst. He reported on most of the major news stories of the latter half of the 20th century and was widely regarded as one of the top American political commentators. Johnson won a Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting in 1966, for his coverage of the civil rights crisis in Selma, Alabama. The award marked the first time in Pulitzer Prize history that a father and son both received awards for reporting; his father, Malcolm Johnson, won in 1949 for the New York Sun series, "Crime on the Waterfront, " which was the basis for the film, On the Waterfront. The son of the Philadelphia Inquirer's chief photographer, Frank Johnston (born in 1941) became a photographer in his own right, covering such history-making stories as the Lee Harvey Oswald shooting, the war in Vietnam, the mass suicide of Jim Jones's followers in Guyana, and Richard Nixon's resignation. After stringing for United Press International while at the University of Pennsylvania and working as a Marine Corps photographer, Frank was hired by UPI in 1963. His photos of Lee Harvey Oswald's shooting were distributed and published throughout the world. Presidential campaigns and political conventions followed, then a stint as UPI News picture bureau manager and chief photographer in Philadelphia. Volunteering to be a combat photographer for UPI in Vietnam, Johnston spent thirteen months and forty-seven combat operations photographing the war. He joined the staff of The Washington Post in October 1968 and went on to cover Watergate, space launches, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and eight presidential administrations, from Lyndon B. Johnson to George W. Bush. Twice nominated for the Pulitzer Prize for his work with The Washington Post, Johnston is a three-time winner of the White House News Photographers' Photographer of the Year Award and received the Lifetime Achievement award from the organization in 2007. Other awards include honors from the Overseas Press Club, World Press Photo, and the National Press Photographers Association. He was also the first photographer to receive the Alicia Patterson Fellowship, spending a year traveling the United States photographing social and economic change for the essay "Faces of the 80s in America, a Nation in Transition." Johnston has co-authored two books, "The Working White House" and "Jonestown Massacre."
