Pennsylvania Avenue is the most important address in the world. Chances were slim that I'd be able to ask a question. At every chance, For one midsummer night recently, I was a part of the White House press reporters were on their feet, hands held high, attempting to get the President's corps. Editors and reporters from outside of the normal Washington atmosphere attention. were invited to attend a nationally-televised press conference with two to three At 9 p.m. the President from Georgia strode to the front of the East Room as hundred reporters. the national television and radio networks were on the air. He appeared calm and After having viewed proceedings at the White House on television for years, relaxed. The most exciting thing for me was to take the tour of the White House visiting this historic and history-making building seemed like second nature.
