Los Angeles, Calif: General Pub. Group, c1996. First Printing [stated]. Hardcover. 24 cm, 288, illus. pages., index, front DJ flap price clipped, some soiling to DJ. Intro by Sam Donaldson. Inscribed by the author (McClendon). Sarah Newcomb McClendon (July 8, 1910 – January 8, 2003) was a long-time White House reporter who covered presidential politics for a half-century. McClendon founded her own freelance news service as a single mother in the post-World War II era, and became known as a model for women in the press and as a vocal advocate of various causes, particularly those of United States military veterans. McClendon was best known, however, for posing sharp, blunt questions at United States presidential press conferences. In June 1944, after McClendon's discharge from the Women's Army Corps, famed newspaperman Bascom N. Timmons hired McClendon as a Washington, D.C. correspondent for the Philadelphia Daily News. In 1946, when Timmons discharged McClendon to make room for reporters returning from service in World War II, McClendon started her own service, the McClendon News Service, which provided Washington dispatches and columns to member newspapers and personal subscribers. For the next several decades, McClendon attended White House press conferences on behalf of the McClendon News Service. More
