Niel Johnson as Harry S. Truman Senator John McCain Visits Truman Library

On October 1, 2008, Senator John McCain delivered an economic policy speech from the Harry S. Truman Library and Museum, engraving his name on the roster of presidential hopefuls who have made a pilgrimage to the hometown and presidential library of America’s 33rd president, Harry S. Truman. Senator John McCain on Harry Truman “He was a man of principle, of wisdom and a deep and abiding love for our country. His accomplishments in war and peace are among the most significant of any president in the twentieth century. He succeeded beyond everyone's expectations—perhaps, even his own—because every day Harry Truman woke up determined to put his country before party and self-interest. We would all be better public servants, and the country would be better served, if we tried a little more often to keep the example of this good American before us.” Senator McCain’s address from the Truman Library was covered by every major news outlet in the nation. Official Guestbook Each year, the Truman Library and Truman Library Institute host luminaries and dignitaries from around the world. During the past year, official visitors included U.S. Senator John Warner, House Majority Whip James E.

SAVE THE DATE WildaboutHarry! WildaboutHarry! 2009 On April 10, 2008, legendary newsman and best-selling author Tom Brokaw anchored the Truman Library Institute’s annual fundraising dinner, Wild About Harry, delivering a record-breaking event to Celebrating HST’s support the legacy of Harry S. Truman and the presidential library and museum which bears his 125th Birthday with COKIE ROBERTS name. More than 820 attendees filled the ballroom of the Muehlebach Tower, a venue with special significance. For nearly a decade, the Muehlebach Hotel’s Presidential Suite served as Truman’s April 23, 2009 headquarters. Sixty years earlier, on election day in 1948, Truman sat in the suite with his staff and Kansas City Downtown Marriott followed the news. When an advisor told Truman about Muehlebach Tower some good early results, Truman responded, “I’ve been HONORARY CHAIRS telling you I was going to win all the time.” Don and Adele Hall

Wild About Harry proceeds provide vital funding for the Truman Library’s acclaimed forums, educational programs, and exhibitions.

The howard & virginia bennett forum on the presidency

On Sunday, October 5, 2008, the Truman Library Institute presented the second annual Howard & Virginia Bennett Forum on the Presidency. The event attracted an audience eager to engage and participate in the topic, The Media and the Presidency: Playing Politics. Scott Simon, host of NPR’s Weekend Edition, opened the discussion with a classic reference: “When you talk about the presidency and the press, any of us in the press have to have a sense of humility. There was probably no more vivid illustration of the fact that the press is often wrong than that famous headline in the Chicago Tribune, ‘Dewey Defeats Truman.’” True to form, The Howard & Virginia Bennett Forum on the Presidency delivered a spirited dialog among the moderator and panelists, who this year included JFK’s speechwriter, Ted Sorensen; the director of the Nixon Library, Timothy Naftali; and political scientist Costas Panagopoulos. A pre-event reception offered the opportunity for West Wing Council and Buck Stops Here Society members to meet and visit with these special guests. “The Howard & Virginia Bennett Forum on the Presidency is the flagship public event for the Truman Library Institute and a must for the area’s thoughtful and engaged citizen,” said Alex Burden, Institute executive vice president. “We are extremely grateful for the vision and support of Mary and Michael Johnston, who generously endowed the series and continue to play an active role in planning and hosting the annual event.”

8 Truman Library Institute – 2008 Annual Report exhibitions

TRUMAN & ISRAEL 60TH ANNIVERSARY EXHIBIT February 15 – April 13, 2008 Marking the 60th anniversary of President Truman’s world-altering decision to recognize the fledgling state of Israel in 1948, Truman & Israel comprised two side-by-side exhibits, Inside the Decision and Portrait 2000. Inside the Decision brought 1948 dramatically to life with firsthand accounts of the political battle leading up to the recognition of Israel. Among the many original artifacts and documents included in the exhibit were President Truman’s Cabinet chair; President Truman’s statement offering “de facto” recognition to Israel, May 14, 1948; and correspondence between President Truman and several prominent people who offered him advice on the issues of displaced persons and the recognition of Israel. The companion exhibit, Portrait 2000, was organized by the Midwest Center for Holocaust Education with funding from the Jewish Community Foundation of Greater Kansas City and featured 50 black-and-white portraits of Holocaust refugees and survivors who settled in Greater Kansas City. The Museum welcomed 19,285 visitors, including 2,810 students, during the exhibition’s run. Sponsored by The Sosland Foundation And The Jacob & Frances O. Brown Family Fund LINCOLN: THE CONSTITUTION AND THE CIVIL WAR May 16 – September 14, 2008 Neither a traditional biography of Lincoln nor a conventional exhibit on the Civil War, Lincoln: The Constitution and the Civil War shed light on one of our nation’s darkest periods and a largely unknown drama. Although the Civil War was a military conflict waged between North and South, at base it was a Constitutional crisis—the severest test of the American experiment in popular self- government since the founding of the Republic. Lincoln understood this, and his constant focus on the Constitution enabled him to chart a course that, ultimately, saved both Constitution and country. Organized by the National Constitution Center in partnership with The Lincoln Museum in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and in cooperation with the Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Commission, the exhibition focused on the three constitutional crises which Lincoln faced as president: secession, slavery, and civil liberties during the Civil War. During its run, Lincoln: The Constitution and the Civil War attracted 56,419 visitors; 5,416 of these were students. Title Sponsor: Kearney Wornall Foundation, UMB Bank, n.a., Trustee Media Sponsor: The Kansas City Star

TO SECURE THESE RIGHTS 60TH ANNIVERSARY EXHIBIT NEW ONLINE EXHIBIT On July 26, 1948, President Harry S. Truman signed Executive Order 9981, which provided for equality of treatment and opportunity for all Americans serving in the armed forces. At great risk to his own re-election in 1948, President Truman was willing to raise the civil rights issue and to formulate and promote a reform agenda. His actions demonstrated his determination to correct the abuses of the past and to advance the rights of all Americans. Now an online exhibit tells this little known chapter in our nation’s civil rights story. The documents, photographs, and firsthand accounts in To Secure These Rights give insight into the political and cultural climate and the unlikely president who took a stand. To view To Secure These Rights, visit TrumanLibrary.org.

9 Truman Library Institute – www.trumanlibrary.org EDUCATION

The teaching of history matters. Truman biographer David McCullough has said, “History is a guide to navigation in perilous times.” And yet, a 2001 National Assessment of Educational Progress in U.S. history and civics showed that American students are failing to grasp the significance of people, places and events of history. With your help, the Truman Library Institute will continue to support the effective teaching of history—the future of our democracy depends on it. The programs offered by the Truman Library are designed to meet national academic standards and serve as the standard for our nation’s presidential libraries.

STUDENT OUTREACH The White House Decision Center During FY08, 5,394 students stepped into a re-creation of the West Wing and into the shoes of President Truman, his cabinet members and advisers, and members of the media.

Designed as a hands-on history lab, the WHDC strengthens student skills in information gathering and analysis, problem solving, decision making, leadership, and communication, while deepening knowledge of history and government.

First Place was awarded to Rock Bridge High School in Columbia, Mo. Second and third-place prizes went to Holden and Tarkio high schools, respectively.

During the past half-century, scholars have turned again and again to the Truman era, illuminating for today’s students, leaders, and thinkers the critical issues of Truman’s presidency. The enormously rich—and world-famous—archival resources of the Truman Library are instrumental in the continuation of future scholarship. The Grants & Awards Program opens the doors to these resources and is invaluable to emerging scholars. Scholar’s Award

The award—up to $30,000—is intended to free the applicant from teaching or other employment. About the Recipient Matthew Dickinson is a professor of political science at Middlebury College.

Past recipients include Dean Acheson, former secretary of state (1970); Walter Isaacson, president and CEO of the Aspen Institute (1988); Stephen Schlesinger, director of the World Policy Institute (2004); and John Lewis Gaddis, noted historian of the Cold War (2006).

Volunteers Since 1957, when the Truman Library opened, volunteers have played an instrumental part in the success of this presidential library.

23 Truman Library Institute – www.trumanlibrary.org Harry Truman left America an enduring legacy.

A legacy of values: responsibility, leadership, decisiveness.

And a commitment to the democratic ideals

that make our nation great.

Harry Truman’s story needs to be shared—now more than ever.

With your support, the Harry S. Truman Library and Museum

will continue to guide us as we journey forward into the

uncharted territory of the 21st century.
