'I was determined to break into the White House and, with the confidence of youth, I didn't see how anyone was going to be able to stop me.'
So how did a small-town girl from Muncie, Indiana, end up an assistant to and favourite of the President, joining George H. W. Bush for early morning runs and on the White House tennis court?
In this sparkling memoir, Annie Bracken takes readers straight to the heart of the action. How do the powerful live on Capitol Hill? What is Joe Biden really like and could he be a successful President? What is life like after the White House?
Packed with vivid personal portraits of Bracken's encounters with Presidents, gangsters, spies and even some Hollywood greats, this is a joyful insider account of one woman's journey from America's fly-over states, through tales of hilarity and intrigue in London and Cannes, all the way to the White House.
Annie Bracken was born in Muncie, Indiana, and studied at the University of Michigan and the London School of Economics. She served on Capitol Hill as legislative assistant to Senator Richard Lugar, then in the White House as an assistant to President George H. W. Bush. After working in the US Embassy in the Hague, she moved to public relations and advertising in Manhattan. She now lives with her family in London.
