Today the?American Enterprise Institute will host an event?Moynihan in the White House?sponsored by the Richard Nixon Foundation. It begins very shortly (1:00?3:00 PM)
From the AEI invite:
Daniel Patrick Moynihan (1927-2003) was one of the most accomplished and admired statesmen of the past half century, serving in senior positions in the Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, and Ford administrations, as U.S. ambassador to the United Nations and India, and as U.S. senator from New York for twenty-four years. His years in Richard Nixon's White House (1969-71) are receiving increased attention this year with the release of his papers by the National Archives-Nixon Presidential Library and Museum and the publication of Steven R. Weisman's Daniel Patrick Moynihan: A Portrait in Letters of an American Visionary. At this event, one of a series of Nixon Legacy Forums sponsored by the Richard Nixon Foundation, four members of Mr. Moynihan's White House staff will discuss his relations with Nixon and their collaborations on welfare reform, education policy, and other issues.
Fordham Institute's own Chester Finn will be one of the panelists?Moynihan was Finn's doctoral advisor at Harvard, then his boss on the White House staff during the first two years of the Nixon administration (and later at the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi and in the Senate).
