Ultimate Insiders: White House Photographers and How They Shape History
Author Talk: Ken Walsh
The Ford Library welcomes White House Correspondent Ken Walsh, who will talk about presidential photographers—those who shape fundamental impressions and public images of the presidents through the art of photography.
Walsh’s new book, Ultimate Insiders shows how official White House photographers have morphed into visual historians, building pictoral chronicles of the presidency, and gives an insider’s view of this unique group of people virtually unknown to the public. Walsh will reveal how White House photographers can make or break a presidential administration as well as define an era.
Ken Walsh is one of the longest-serving White House correspondents in history and has traveled to more than 70 countries as part of his job. He joined U.S. News in 1984 as a congressional correspondent and has covered the presidency, presidential campaigns and national politics for over three decades.
Free Admission. Free Parking. Book sales, book signing and reception follow program.
