CHARNEY Today, Leon Charney is renowned as a lawyer, author, broadcaster, real estate mogul, political advisor and philanthropist – but the self- made billionaire’s rise to international prominence is truly a tale of a man living out the “American Dream.” With just $200 in the bank and an entrepreneurial spirit, Charney started his own law firm representing sports and show business personalities. That same spirit, combined with good judgment and creativity, led Charney to success in New York City’s highly competitive world of finance and investment. Ranked by “Forbes” as among the wealthiest Americans and named by “Bloomberg Business Week” as one of twenty billionaires who started with nothing, Charney is not your ordinary billionaire. Considered to be among the foremost authorities on Middle East affairs, Charney first entered the realm of politics as a Special Counsel to Sen.

Executive producers, Donald Tanselle, Matthew Tollin, Arick Wierson. Co-producer, Vered Kollek-Meisel. Directed, edited by Harry Hunkele. Written by Jonathan Hicks, Hunkele, Matthew Tollin, Arick Wierson. With: Gerry Rafshoon, William Quandt, Wolf Blitzer, Samuel Lewis, Leon Charney, Boutros Boutros-Ghali, Andre Azoulay, Abdel Raouf El Reedy, Nabil El Araby, Mohammed Gohar, Henry Kissinger, Nabil Fahmy, Nabil Shaath, Avraham Tamir, Arye Naor, Yael Dayan, Patricia Kahane, Smadar Perry, David Landau, Dan Pattir, Shlomo Gazit, Hisham Khalil, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Jimmy Carter, Stuart E. Eizenstat, Ahmed Maher, Meir Rosenne, Robert Lipshutz. The behind-the-scenes negotiations leading to the first Camp David Accords between Egypt and Israel are revealed in all their riveting complexity in "Back Door Channels: The Price of Peace." PBS docu helmer Harry Hunkele gained unprecedented access to major players for an enthralling dissection of the unlikely path to the groundbreaking treaty, though he bites off more than he can chew and needs to rein in a tendency toward portentous explication, underscored by the incongruous music of Moby and Whale Hawk. Despite such annoyances, the docu deserves widespread exposure on PBS and satcasters. The Camp David Accords, signed in 1978, marked an unlikely moment when idealism briefly triumphed over obdurate stonewalling. Though never entirely satisfactory, the accords offered the hope of a brighter future in the Middle East; the failure of that initial promise in no way diminishes the achievement, whose memory can still bring a lump to the throat.

I want to welcome you all to the 13th annual International Advocate for Peace Award ceremony of the Cardozo Journal of Conflict Resolution. Today, the students of the Journal will present the International Advocate for Peace Award to President Jimmy Carter. [Applause].

MK: Ann Devroy? RL: No. Joe Kraft. Do you remember that name? MK: Sure. RL: One of the answers you’ll see on here is when they asked me about Executive Privilege, what was I going to do about that and I said, “Frankly, I don’t know; I’ve been in private practice all these years, I’ve really got to study the subject.” And Joe Kraft, I’ll never forget, wrote a blistering article about how could the President pick somebody as Counsel who didn’t know the answer to such an important question. MK: It’s certainly better to not have an answer than to stick yourself with an answer that you can’t get out from under.

MK: Thanks very much. RL: CBS sent me that years ago and I had some copies—I actually made the copies recently. I’ve had it all this time. MK: One of the documents that I came across, I think it was yesterday, was one by Jack Watson in early December of 1976, talking about White House staff. The general approach was in deciding who they were going to pick, and how they were going to treat the whole subject of White House staff: they wanted to de-imperialize the staff and, therefore, cut out the various perks and try to cut the numbers, according to the campaign pledge.
