Meeting

Okamoto's Office, White House, Washington, DC

All 3 seated, informal mood. ES smokes cigarette, YO holds pipe & gestures. Photos on wall behind them. Oke's office in basement of West Wing WH. Per Mike G: "Oke’s office was in the basement of the west wing, near the stairway leading to the hall way outside the cabinet room. The office was about 6x10’, maybe 8x10’, really small…there were those who wanted to move the photo operation to the OEOB but Oke resisted and succeeded…
The whole office wasn’t that big…" WM was LIFE photographer.
