Donald M. Stinson

“Downstairs at the White House: A teenager, an Oval Office, and a ringside seat to Watergate.” (2017)

At the age of 17, Don Stinson accidentally landed a job in the White House during Watergate, the largest political scandal in American history. A truly insignificant member of the Nixon White House staff, he frequently loitered outside of the Oval Office to watch it unfold. What he saw throughout the White House ran  the gamut from the deeply profound to the wildly hilarious. A funny, fast-paced memoir, Downstairs at the White House is richly decorated with presidents, first ladies, celebrities ... and events that shook America.
