The White House china refers to the various patterns of china (porcelain) used for serving and eating food in the White House, home of the president of the United States. Different china services have been ordered and used by different presidential administrations. The White House collection of china is housed in the White House China Room. Not every administration created its own service, but portions of all china services created for the White House are now in the China Room collection. Some of the older china services are used for small private dinners in the President's Dining Room on the Second Floor. Wikipedia Martha Washington Service Pieces Rutherford B. Hayes Lyndon B.

  • White House Oval Office Scavenger Hunt for All Ages
    White House Oval Office Scavenger Hunt for all ages Facts about the Oval Office: This is a full-scale replica of The White House Oval Office. The West Wing where it is located was built in 1902 during President Theodore Roosevelt’s presidency. The first Oval Office was built in 1909 during the presidency of William Howard Taft. Painted green, it included a skylight that was later removed. The West Wing burned in 1929; only the fireplace mantel survives from that earlier era. To improve private access and light, President Franklin Roosevelt moved the room to its current location in 1934 and added the three French doors leading to the Rose Garden. The room’s architecture has changed little since except for the flooring. Presidents decorate the office to suit their own personal tastes and needs. Neither President Eisenhower nor Carter changed the room as furnished by their predecessors. President Obama added a striped wallpaper in 2010. A portrait of George Washington is always present in the Oval Office. The painting over the mantel here is a reproduction of an original by Rembrandt Peale done in 1853. The Presidential desk is a reproduction of “The Resolute Desk”, a gift from Queen Victoria to President Rutherford B. Hayes in 1880. The plaque on the face of the desk tells its story. It first appeared in the Oval Office of President John F. Kennedy. While many have used the desk in their private study, it was also in the Oval Office of Presidents Carter, Reagan, Clinton, George W. Bush and the current President, Barack Obama.

Johnson presidency is unique in its collection of recordings of the chief executive’s activities. In the 1960s, the White House Naval Photographic Unit (NPC) began producing films that highlighted special presidential trips, visits, and events. Commander Thomas Atkins produced these films for the NPC, starting in 1963 in the John F. Kennedy administration and continuing through the Johnson years. About 43 of the 70+ films are available for viewing on the Lyndon B. Johnson Library’s YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL853F6EAB74B64D1D . Hofstra University’s Peter S. Kalikow Center for the Study of the American Presidency has a full digitized set of the Atkins films, which are available for research in the Joan and Donald E. Axinn Library’s Special Collections room. In the summer of 2013, Ms. Nancy Lindemeyer (who, along with her husband, Robert Lindemeyer, served with Commander Atkins in the Navy) contacted Hofstra on behalf of the Atkins family to see if the Kalikow Center might be a suitable repository for the collection. Thanks to the generosity of the Atkins family and the cheerful, unstinting efforts of the Lindemeyers, the original 16 mm films were transferred to DVDs and became part of Hofstra’s holdings in 2015.

Department of Education and Public Programs Examples of White House China Abraham Lincoln China This was the first china chosen by a first lady. First Lady Mary Todd Lincoln helped to design this china, as she felt it symbolized the strength of Lincoln’s administration to those who visited the White House. The Lincoln china has an eagle above a shield with the national motto in the clouds. The Coat of Arms of the United States is centered on the china. Lyndon B. Johnson China Mrs. Lady Bird Johnson was passionate about the beautification of the White House. As first lady, helping to design the Johnson china was one of the first things she did.

  • Four Years to Forever: One-Term Presidents
    FOUR YEARS TO FOREVER: ONE-TERM PRESIDENTS AND THE RHETORICAL POWER OF PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARIES by MADISON GREEN JESSY J. OHL, COMMITTEE CHAIR MEREDITH M. BAGLEY CYNTHIA C. PEACOCK COLIN RAFFERTY A THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Communication Studies in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2020 Copyright Madison Elizabeth Green 2020 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Presidential libraries are sophisticated sites for public memory designed to affirm democratic values, convince audiences of each president’s accomplishments, and enshrine a leader’s legacy in a favorable light for future generations. Although these memory places are consequential for every president, they are pivotal for those only granted one term in office. This study explores the ways that the libraries of Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, and George H.W. Bush rhetorically elevate the respective presidents in public memory. This study blends traditional narrative criticism with calls for ‘field rhetoric’ to examine how the three respective libraries utilize space, place, and verbal discourse in order to narrate the most compelling case for why each president deserves praise and admiration in public memory. I demonstrate that each library invests in different persuasive strategies: 1.) The Ford Library presents him as a victim of circumstance by focusing on emotional appeals to pity and nostalgia, 2.) The Carter Library excuses his presidential missteps by emphasizing his post-presidential achievements, and 3.) The Bush Library lauds his place as the patriarch of a political dynasty created using the American dream myth.

  • AN ANALYSIS of the KENNEDY WHITE HOUSE RESTORATION by LAURA SMITH (Under the Direction of John C. Waters)
    A PUBLIC HOUSE: AN ANALYSIS OF THE KENNEDY WHITE HOUSE RESTORATION by LAURA SMITH (Under the Direction of John C. Waters) ABSTRACT The Kennedy White House restoration is quite possibly one of the most recognizable projects undertaken by a first family while in office. More than any other public building in the United States, the White House stands at the center of the nation’s public life and even the slightest changes are immediately recorded. This work is intended to make a case for the validity of the Kennedy White House restoration, while recognizing the forces that worked against the integrity of the project. While some elements of the final product certainly can be described as a redecoration, the overall goals of Mrs. Kennedy’s project were achieved—to restore the historic integrity of the White House as a living museum and to provide protection henceforth. Mrs. Kennedy’s work also contributed to the restoration of interiors at other historic sites across the nation and to the national historic preservation movement, which was just beginning to take shape in the United States.
