A notable association copy between two United States Cabinet Secretaries. Paul O Neill (1935-2020) served as the 72nd U.S. Secretary of the Treasury from January 2001 to December 2002 under President George W. Bush. Before his government role, he was chairman and CEO of Alcoa from 1987 to 1999. O Neill joined the Office of Management in Budget (OMB) in 1967, serving as its deputy director from 1974 1977, before returning to the private sector when Gerald R. Ford lost the 1976 election. O'Neill joined the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Foundation in 1981, serving until his death in 2020. O Neill was known for his outspoken views on economic policy and opposition to the Bush administration s tax cuts. His tenure was marked by tensions with other officials, and he was asked to resign in December 2002. After leaving office, he criticized the administration s decision-making process in the 2004 book The Price of Loyalty.
