Nixon Now Podcast

On this edition of the Nixon Now Podcast we explore how President Nixon made his improbable comeback for President in 1968 — 50 years ago — and what it was like to be in the inner workings of the campaign. There wasn’t anyone as closely involved as Dwight Chapin, then candidate Nixon’s personal aide. Chapin went on to serve as President Nixon’s appointments Secretary, and Deputy Assistant to the president. He’s been at the center of some of the most monumental events of the Nixon Presidency including serving as Acting Director of Protocol during the historic trip to China in 1972. He also oversaw the White House Television Office and Presidential Travel. Interview by Jonathan Movroydis.
