First Edition, First Printing. Paperbound, 416 pages. Signed and inscribed by the author James Jennings Sheeran to fellow Hollywood executive Jack Valenti: ÒTo Jack Valenti, Master of All he surveys! Best - JJ SheeranÓ. From the library of film executive Jack Valenti with a Certificate of Authenticity. Sheeran includes mention of Valenti five time throughout the book with a dedicated section, #42 ÒWho is the CapitalĠs most voluble and visible association executive?Ó on pg. 42 and a photo of Jack and his wife on pg. 331 with the caption, ÒJack and Mary Margaret Valenti - laudatory, luminous, and lasting.Ó Illustrated. Fine copy in printed wrappers. Jack Valenti (1921-2007) is best known in his long-time role as President of the Motion Picture Association of America from 1966 to 2004. During his 38 year position in the MPAA, Valenti created the MPAA film rating system which is still used today. In 1963, Valenti was in the John F. Kennedy motorcade in Dallas, and he is seen in the famous photograph of Lyndon Johnson being sworn in as President on Air Force One. Valenti flew back to Washington with Johnson and literally lived in the White House for two months helping Johnson take the reins of the presidency. He was the first special assistant to President Johnson and served at JohnsonĠs direction as a liaison to the Republican Congressional leadership. Hollywood mogul and Democratic fundraiser Lew Wasserman pressured Lyndon Johnson to let Valenti leave in 1966 to run the MPAA. A striking and articulate man who easily made friends, Valenti became a figure of considerable influence in both Hollywood and Washington. Few people have known as many famous and powerful people as Valenti.
