About Nixon and Elvis: The Story of a Photo
From the publisher's feed
One day in 1970, Elvis dropped in on President Nixon, unannounced. The resulting quick meeting created a piece of culture, and the most popular photo in the U.S. National Archives. How did it all…
happen, and why did both of them see in each other something they wanted? This podcast goes deep into the stories of both Elvis Presley and President Nixon. While Nixon was older, politics takes longer than show business and thus both were rising stars at the same time.
