I am returning the material you sent me about Bob Casey. As I understand it, arrangements have now been made to have his nomination resubmitted and to have the Senate confirm the nominee for appointment as soon as the Senate returns. I talked to Bob Casey last week and explained the situation to him. I would appreciate your following up to be sure that the necessary steps are taken. cc: Max Friedersdorf Jim Connor ~· ~ .- i,; /;' /) (\ THE WHITE HOUSE ) f ) WASHINGTON j .; I I December 17, 1975 MEMORANDUM FOR: PETER MCPHERSON FROM: PHILIP BUCHE~(? w.13. SUBJECT: Nomination, of Congressman Casey to fill position on Maritime Commission This memo will confirm our telephone conversation of today. The Justice Department advises that the statute which provides that the salary of an appointee to the Maritime Commission, who is a Member of Congress, shall be at the level prevailing before the current session of Congress, has not yet passed both Houses. It is also pointed out that inasmuch as the Casey nomination came before the adoption of this statute, it may be invalid even though the statute is passed before he is confirmed and takes office. Therefore, the xecommendation is that his nomination be allowed to lapse at the close of the current session so that it may be resubmitted in January only after the new statute has been passed. cc: William Kendall ! t I THE WHITE HOUSE v j WASHINGTON November 13, 1975 MEMORANDUM FOR: DOUG BENNETT FROM: PHIL BUCHE/f?

Oliphant, senior member of the Stock Exchange firm of James H. Oliphant Co., and one of the best-known brokers in this city, was shot, and mortally wounded in his office at 20 Broad Street yesterday afternoon by Dr. Charles A. Geiger of Beaufort, S.C., a ruined speculator, who for two years or more had been a customer of the Oliphant firm. Dr. Geiger then turned the revolver on himself and sent the bullet into his brain, dying instantly.” My “Pilgrims meter” tells me that Oliphant was a member, though he wasn’t a charter member as of January 1903--- The 2005 Who’s Who in America, page 3502, shows David Olyphant (note spelling variation) as a member of The Pilgrims. He was a Citibank executive, an officer of the English Speaking Union (direct Pilgrims subsidiary) and involved with the American Trust for the British Library. John Charles Straton Jr.

Brooks Interview Conducted by Carole Kolker, PhD June 30, 2010 This collection of interviews, Venture Capital Greats, recognizes the contributions of individuals who have followed in the footsteps of early venture capital pioneers such as Andrew Mellon and Laurance Rockefeller, J.H. Whitney, and Georges Doriot, and the mid-century associations of Draper, Gaither & Anderson, and Davis & Rock — families and firms who financed advanced technologies and built iconic U.S. companies. Each interviewee was asked to reflect on his formative years, his career path, and the subsequent challenges faced as a venture capitalist. Their stories reveal passion and judgment, risk and rewards, and suggest in a variety of ways what the small venture capital industry has contributed to the American economy.
