White Seminar Wednesday morning (Oct. 29) at the Kennedy School of Government (KSG). Pulitzer Prize-winning biographer of Johnson, Robert Caro, joined a panel of prominent media figures for a lively discussion that probed Johnsons ascent from the U.S. Senate to the vice presidency to president and his engineering of successful policies, such as his Great Society and the Civil Rights Act, and disastrous ones like the countrys involvement in Vietnam.https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/wp-content/uploads/2003/11/09-carp1-450-2.jpg
