c-span: to san clemente? >> guest: to san clemente. and i we--i was in--doing another coverage at the time for mccall's magazine on mrs. nixon. and so while i was there in the house, i--i--you know, they were going to go on the beach, and i asked if i could go along and do some photography. and they said yes. and it was drizzling, and so mrs. nixon had on a raincoat and a--and a scarf, and--and they had this umbrella. and it was very warm--very warm view of the president and the first lady's relationship that most people, obviously, were not aware happened. c-span: where was this taken? >> guest: this was also at san clemente. when i had finished the beach shot and i had done some pictures inside the house, and then he asked me if i would do a photograph of him and the first lady on this bench that overlooked the pacific ocean, because he said it was their favorite bench and they spent a lot of time there together, so it had a lot of meaning to them. it had a lot of meaning to them. and now, to me, it also has a lot of meaning. c-span:

so nixon goes out to san clemente and comes back, and there were 500,000 demonstrators in october. they recognize we have to stand up, and you have to defy them. they're into the breaking of the president. david brodeur wrote a problem. he said they're out to break richard nixon, and there's a good probability they'll succeed again. i sent these in to nixon, and said this is a real presence on the line. nixon went out to the country and said i want the silent majority to stand with me. i'm bringing the troops home, and the country stood with him. that's when the networks got out there and started trashing him. that's when agnew counterattacked the networks and snit nixon by december riched 69% approval in this divided country which was the highest he ever achieved until the end of the vietnam war when he announced that. so what happened was did nixon basically every presidency, i think there's a moment when he becomes president in the mind of american people. i think with kennedy it was the missile crisis. with reagan it was when he was shot, and people who didn't -- people were ve

nixon in san clemente. he said that even when they went to visit his mother, he was wearing a suit. what was it about wearing formal attire was so important to the president and his manner? >> i don't think it was important to him. i think it was just -- i mean, i think it was generational. it was lots of things. but it was just what people did. a lot of people did. i can remember as an undergraduate of late '50s and early '60s, everybody wore coat and tie, jacket and tie. so it wasn't that unusual. he did have -- there was a very fine -- an artist, i guess, this infinite degrees within a single color and a palette, and there were infinite degrees of nixon' sartorial formality and informality. again, i think it's generational. i don't think there's anything weird about it. he would have smoking jackets that were for relaxation. and he would have sports jackets. but that would be -- when he'd go out and golf, he'd wear slacks and a polo shirt. so that was -- i mean, it got -- the image got sort of nailed down by some unfortunate things. the walk on the beach that was meant to be a se

the first call i had after san clemente, before he left, the smoking gun tape had him talking to colson about me in which he said between he and colson said he is not our kind of guy, he's got egg on his face. those were the kind of quotes. and i was playing golf with some friends and i got a call from a reporter who said you better get back to your office and see what's been said. the way i treated it was, we're friend and i've sure heard a lot of things said in a locker room which people don't really mean so i dismissed it that way. but it bothered me some and about the fourth day he got back he called me on the phone, said i want to talk to you about this and i'm sorry. which i thought was one of the more noble things that he did. >> did you visit him? >> i visited him, not right away but i did quite often, yes. >> he was very sick physically. >> yeah. we had the same doctor. >> was he pleased with his performance on the -- in the press interviews? >> he would never admit he was really pleased but i think he was. i think he did well. turned the public opinion around for quite a while
