Margaret Ronayne Hahn Personal Papers
MRHPP-AU01-AU001-010201
Sound recording of Margaret Ronayne Hahn's recollections of her work on John F. Kennedy's 1960 presidential campaign. The recording continues from side 1 of tape 1. Hahn talks about the support that Polly (Pauline) Fitzgerald and campaign manager Robert F. Kennedy provided to her and other campaigners. Hahn speaks about her experiences and challenges serving as a Kennedy-Johnson advance person and a "tea lady" on the campaign trail in Ohio, Illinois, and Indiana. She also talks about attending a party hosted by Jacqueline Kennedy to view on television John F. Kennedy's first presidential debate against Vice President Richard M. Nixon. Hahn speaks about her advance campaign work in Indiana, a reluctance among Democrats there to publicly support a Catholic candidate for president, and the decision by the Kennedy-Johnson campaign not to have the tea ladies hold receptions in Indiana. This is side 2 of 2 on tape 1 of 3. The recording continues on tape 2.
