This series consists of files created by Peter Benchley while he served as a Presidential speech writer and aide to Lyndon B. Johnson. The files contain statements and correspondence along with the drafts and notes used for their creation. The series includes drafts and copies of correspondence written for the President ranging from personal letters for family and friends to official correspondence such as transmittal letters that accompanied legislation to Congress. The files also contain drafts and copies of statements such as toasts; comments for bill signings, ceremonies, dinners, meetings, and social events; press releases; and proclamations. A small body of materials written for use in White House publications is included in the files.
