Everett Frederic Morrow (1909-1994) was the first African American to hold an executive position at the White House. He served President Dwight Eisenhower as Administrative Officer for Special Projects from 1955 to 1961. After serving on Eisenhower's 1952 campaign staff, Morrow served as an advisor at the U.S. Commerce Department. The White House Historical Association wrote of his tenure: "As the sole African American on a staff dealing with racial tensions related to integration, Morrow faced difficult personal and professional struggles at the White House. The Supreme Court's landmark Brown v. Board of Education ruling, the Montgomery bus boycott, and the Little Rock crisis were the backdrop of Morrow's White House years. On a staff with a civil-rights policy that was at best cautious, Morrow was often frustrated and angered." In 1964, Morrow became the first African American vice-president of Bank of America, retiring from the company in 1975. Incredibly important American history - inscribed by author. Gift quality.
