Support cspan as a public service. Good afternoon, my name is dr. Castillo and i serve as Vice President for white house history and Senior Historian for the White House Historical association. Its a pleasure to be with you today. I am excited for this panel. We have a great collection of talent, expertise, knowledge to approach this topic and i am excited to share the stage with three of you. Before that, i would be remiss if i did not add fun, historical anecdote to this session. I found this and thought it was amusing. Maybe you will agree or wont. November 6, 1947, harry truman held a press conference in the oval office. In between questions that were revolving around grain exchanges , there was inflation, price controls and also the marshall plan, one reporter piped up, mr. President , have you seen any good movies lately . Truman answered, never get a chance to see a movie unless they bring it to the white house. The only thing icr newsreels. I tried to go when i am not in them.
