allen writes that because gates looked like he was 13, they decided allen should go alone to pitch theirare. sitting by an old original altair, he showed me how he fed the computer a paper strip with their code punched into it and typed, "print 2+2." >> and then i hit return to send it, and lo and behold, it printed "4." and a wave of relief surged over me because i couldn't--i almost couldn't believe it had worked the first time. so that night, i call bill up and i say, "billy, it's unbelievable; it worked." and we were just over the moon. >> it was the beginning of the age of a computer in every home on every desk. almost overnight, people started buying these small computers, and their software was in high demand. in 1977, gates was even interviewed on a tv show. >> there's a lot of people who are forecasting that there'll be software stores just like there are record stores today and that there'll be thousands and thousands of those. and i think i'd have to agree with that. >> allen writes that gates had a rare gift for programming. he was also the shrewder businessman. from the begi

eugene allen. and i just started cold calling every eugene allen in, say, you know, all of the neighboring cities -- i mean towns outside of d.c., virginia, maryland. because if he was catching a taxicab, then i just said, well, he must live in the region. and on the 57th call, a gentleman answers the phone. i say my name is wil haygood. i'm a reporter for the "washington post" and i'm looking for mr. eugene allen, who i think worked at the white house with three administrations. he said i am that eugene allen. however, i worked for eight administrations. from harry truman to ronald reagan. and i almost dropped the phone. >> so then you knew you had a story. >> yes. >> and no one had talked to him in 34 years of service in the white house? >> 34 years. i went over there, of course, the very next day. a day later, because his wife said, yes, we'll talk to this writer, but you tell him that we both have doctors' appointments tomorrow. and so i waited a day, fairly nervous, hoping that they wouldn't c

tom allen is here, tell us what you thought. he stands up and the first thing he says is "well, you threw my mother under the bus." and then we all go, oh, lord, what's he going to say? he actually liked the film. and i said "well, i certainly took some liberties with your mother." his mother smoked a couple packs of pal malls everyday and, you know, i don't think she was -- she wasn't a drinker and not to that extent and certainly wasn't tiptoing out with the next door neighbor because the next door neighbor wasn't terence howard. so we took some liberties because what she loved to do is watch "the price is right" and watch the soap operas so -- >> rose: you got that. >> we got that. >> rose: so you finally said yes because something -- >> because -- >> rose: because this was a busy time in your life. you did own. >> i was trying to get the network going and i said to lee no, no, no, then finally said yes. my entire life i've been a student of the history. when i was a young girl i knew all of langston hugh's poems. i knew all

inspired by eugene allen's story. here's the trailer for lee daniels' "the butler." >> we have no tolerance for politics at the white house. >> i'm cecil gaines. i'm the new butler. >> you hear nothing, you see nothing. you only serve. >> you know he got that job, the white house called him, he didn't call the white house. >> i want to hear all the stories. >> i don't know how many stories you're going to hear because they done swore him to some kind of secret code. i'm so proud of you. >> did you go to an all-colored school, says still >> i didn't go to school, mr. president. i grew up on a cotton farm. >> get back to work! >> don't you lose your temp we are a that man. it's his world, you're just living in it. >> you looking for some help? >> he done stole our food and now you're asking far job? >> i know how to serve. they say this new white boy is smooth. >> i'll thrilled to be working with all of you. >> what did your daddy do. >> he's a butter whether. >> the black domestics played an important role in our histo

allen.president truman called him gene. president ford liked to talk golf with him. he saw eight presidential administrations come and go, often working six days a week. he was there while america's racial history was being remade, brown versus the board of education, the little rock school crises, the 1963 march on washington, the city's burning, the civil rights bills, the assassinations. when he started at the white house in 1952 he couldn't even use the public restrooms when he ventured back to his native virginia. the writer of that article, wil haygood joins us now. he's also the author of the new book "the butler: a witness to history." ronald reagan knew eugene allen from his father's white house years. wil, i remember that tremendous column you wrote. i think we all do. how did you first get on to the story? >> i had wanted to find somebody who worked in the white house during the era of segregation because i thought that then senator obama was going to win. i just felt it in my gut

eugene allen, had not seen the film before. and he stands up at the screening at the end and -- because gayle is hosting this screening and she says "mr. charles allen is here, tell us what you thought?" and he stands up and the first thing he says "well, you threw my mother under the bus." and then we all go, oh, lord, what's he going to say? he actually liked the film. he loves it. and i said "well, i certainly took some liberties with your mother." his mother is smoked a couple packs of pal mall everyday and i don't think -- she wasn't a drinker, not to that extent and certainly wasn't tiptoing out with the next door neighbor because the next door neighbor wasn't terence howard. so we took some liberties because what she loved to do was watch "the price is right" and watched the soap operas. so -- >> rose: you got that. >> you got that. >> rose: so you finally said yes because something -- >> because -- >> rose: because this was a busy time in your life. own -- >> i was trying to build a network and i said to lee no, no no.

allen beautifully.llywood, the great director lee daniels, has taken some artistic license, but i think it all serves the story quite well, and i think everybody will realize that the movie is unequivocally based on the life of this astonishing man who served eight presidents. >> ron reagan, what do you remember about meeting the real eugene allen? >> well, eugene allen would have been one of the first people my parents encountered when they entered the white house in 1981. in fact, i remember meeting him there after the inauguration. and they developed an immediate and really profound respect for him, not as a butler per se but as a compendium of knowledge about the white house. he was an immensely dignified, enormously competent man. and you realized really that you were in his house in a sense when you were in the white house. you were just passing through. all these presidents that come and go, you know, that's one thing, but eugene allen stayed. and he made you feel like you're in his house but as
