Revisiting the George H. W. Bush presidency

President George H. W. Bush is often remembered for his role in ending the Cold War and ushering in a new era of U.S. foreign affairs. He is also remembered for his domestic policy accomplishments, including the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Clean Air Act amendments. To reflect on Bush’s presidency, the Miller Center brings together Fred McClure, the White House’s chief liaison to Congress during the Bush administration; Mary Kate Cary, who served as a White House speechwriter in the Bush administration; and Spencer Bakich, who authored a book on the Gulf War and Bush’s foreign policy strategy. The program will be moderated by Barbara Perry, codirector of the Miller Center’s Presidential Oral History Program, and will feature excerpts from the George H. W. Bush Oral History Project.
In celebration of the Miller Center’s 50th anniversary, a series of special public events highlights the Center’s contributions to Presidential Oral History and the study of the U.S. presidency, featuring every presidency for which the Center has conducted an oral history.
