Links for the Friends

Dear Friends,

We will kick off the 2009-2010 season with an American hero. Captain Eugene Cernan, the last man to walk on the moon, will join us September 14 to give his personal, riveting account of traveling to the moon. Please mark your calendar! An invitation will be mailed soon.

Also coming soon, we will celebrate the opening of the new exhibit, School House to White House: The Education of the Presidents.

On July 28, President Obama nominated David S. Ferriero to the position of Archivist of the United States. Mr. Ferriero currently serves as the Andrew W. Mellon Director and Chief Executive of the research libraries of the New York Public Libraries. The Archivist oversees the National Archives and Records Administration, including the presidential libraries.

Sincerely,

Tina Houston
Interim Director
