eisenhower memorial. in 1999, congress authorized the dwight d. eisenhower memorial commission to consider a memorial to our 34th president. that commission is comprised of 12 commissioners, including eight members of congress and previously a member of the eisenhower family. as a result of this commission's work in 2002, congress authorized the commission to establish the eisenhower memorial. since that time, the national parks service has worked closely with the commission to establish the memorial in accordance with both the authorizing legislation and the commemorative works act. in our experience, the subjects of memorials can provoke strong emotional responses. because while many may agree on the value of commemorating a particular person or event, they may not all agree on the form that commemoration should take. the direction provided by the congress in the commemorative works act has been highly beneficial in guiding decision-making by memorial sponsors and federal agencies in determining both th

the memorial commission and gary intend to redefine what it means to build a memorial, far exceeding the congressional mandate to build one to honor eisenhower's accomplishments. to me this new literalism is the most important part in this hearing. we have an accepted rule. and either we stick to it or we throw it out. if you go this new direction, we might as well tear down the lincoln memorial and put a log cabin there. monuments should be built from materials that last for centuries. mr. gary does not typically respect this type of ma tefrment tefrment -- material. the gigantic fence is promoted as larger than the hollywood sign. acid rain, bird droppings and air quality will disintegrate this feature and likely cause security issues for pedestrians below. the only positive thing i can say about it is that most likely very few people would go there. and so there is less chance that a piece of kansas would fall on some one's head. trash collects in public spaces. the wind blows and visitors are careless. gusts will blow, standard city trash, all over the 600-foot long fence. we hav

that's more about photographic memory.e remember the last scrabble game we had. >> let's put this to the test because i find this gripping. >> okay. >> so if i was to say to you what did you do on august the 16th, 1977. >> oh, okay. august the 16th, of 1977, i was just flying back from las vegas. my boyfriend at the time, lloyd allen, was performing there in vegas at the aladdin hotel. i was flying back and i was driving from the airport and i found out -- and that was -- that was a -- '77, that was a tuesday and i heard on the radio that elvis presley had died. >> my god! >> isn't that the truth? yes. >> it's shocking to me that you can remember that elvis died that day. even though i vaguely knew it was in the '70s, the fact that you remember your day is even more extraordinary. >> i remember where i ate the night before, i remember what i did that weekend. at one point he was in the show "grease" and the little -- the car during greased lightning went off and into somebody's table. it's like all of a sudden everything s

is that e-memorial a way to thank the donors, or what's that all about? could you elaborate. >> we are working on an e-memorial, yes. >> what will that be like? >> don't know yet. >> we'll stay tuned. >> yes, i was wondering to what extent do you expect or actually intend for the viewer at the memorial to come away with a good sense of the historical context within which eisenhower was an actor? will there -- i don't know whether it will be like writing and some inscriptions about the historical aspect of these times, and/or do you expect there to be like the usual brochures available there where people will be able to get a better sense of him in history? >> well, i think in some aspects, yes, we'll do that, but, you know, we have that in history books. we have that in a chip. and i think as artists, and frank's an artist, myself, we're not there to do what history books do. it's not a lesson in history. i see it as something more poetic. so content related to the history of the man, yes, there will be references to it. that is not our main objective. th

eisenhower legacy and the r president and general's memorialization. i regret that there isn't time to recognize more of you. i would like to thank the archivist of the united states for adding this evening's event to the memorialization of this great general and this great president.as someone that dabbl history for a period of time, i think of the archivist of the united states as the keeper of the nation's memory, and if you will, of its identity. the participation of the national archives and of that special outlier unit in abilene, the great library that karl weisenbach leads so effectively, is a huge fundamental contribution for us being able to look to the future and the continuing first class reinterpretation of the eisenhower legacy through the decades and centuries. as we move forward, the archivist has tonight in his own way created his own historic event. the national memorialization of a president is a historic event, but this evening i think we are part of an unprecedented level of cooperation between elements of the government's action.

we take a look at the proposed memorial designed by architect frank gehry. after that president eisenhower's granddaughter, susan eisenhower, talks about her opposition to the frank gehry memorial design. that's followed later by an archival film about his military career produced by the u.s. army. >> this past october frank gehry, the architect behind the proposed eisenhower national memorial, spoke at the national archives about the ideas behind his design. he was joined by wilson. this is about an hour. >>> thank you for the introduction. i know how much you're looking forward to this great program we have this evening. my remarks will be brief. but as a representative of the eisenhower memorial commission, i'm happy and pleased that tonight we have with us three commissioners, chairman rocco sicilianio from beverly hills, california, commissioner alfred godelburg from new york city and commissioner susan baines harris from washington, d.c. i see around the room other distinguished supporters of the eisenhower legacy and the president and general's memori

and particularly a type of memory called working memory is a problem for them. in addition, they are impaired with what we call executive functions, so they're unable to do the every day sorts of things that we need to do to be effective in our daily life or at work, et cetera. and therefore very difficult for many patients with schizophrenia to be gainfully employed. often difficult for them to marry and have families. so the cognitive symptoms and negative symptoms are really often the most troubling. and ones that we, right now, don't have terribly effective treatments for. >> rose: introduce to us danny. >> so danny, welcome and thank you for being with us. >> thank you for having me. >> we have danny hurley who is a person who has experienced schizophrenia firsthand. and so danny, i thought we'd start by having you tell us a bit about how you were doing before you became ill with schizophrenia. what happened when you became ill. and tell us a little bit about how things have been going ever since. >> well, before the onset of the disease i had almost unlimi

the collective memory, the public memory that we know today of shiloh and there's been some revision, we heard some revision of that up here in a lot of different ways. mr. sword talked about the new material that's coming out, the new ways of looking at the battle that we just heard about. all of that is predicated on the official story that if you ask pretty much anybody out in the public, if jay leno went jay walking and asked anybody about shiloh, they would, anybody that knows anything about it, they would mention the hornet's nest and the sunken road, of course,ing the dominant things at shiloh. a lot of that goes back to the original preservation movement and the people that did the preserving originally and most of these folks ironically are from iowa of all places. tennessee didn't get a whole lot of cloud in this. most are from iowa. the chairman of this veteran commission that establishes the park in 1890s from iowa. and as dominant a figure is the congressman that sponsored the bill to establish the shiloh national military park his name is david henderson. he was a repres
