Series 4: Public Statements, 1956-1999
Collection Overview
Collection Description & Creator Information
- Scope and Contents
Series 4, Public Statements, 1956-1998, is divided into speeches, interviews, oral histories, conferences, and appearances. The speeches are a combination of texts of speeches given by Bundy and programs or newspaper clippings that give information about these speeches and other public appearances. Bundy created his own index for the speeches between 1956-1968. The index is accurate but a few speeches and appearances have been added that are not listed in the index. The index for these years can be found in box 11, folder 18 and box 12, folder 12. Included in the oral history is the transcript of the interview conducted by the JFK Library in 1964. Also included is information regarding conferences that Bundy attended but did not speak at. Of note is the Vietnam Roundtable Conference at the LBJ library in 1991. He also made frequent appearances on television and radio news programs, of which the transcripts have been included. An index for appearances between 1964-1968 is in box 16, folder 7.
