Harry Truman’s legacy of decisive and principled leadership was frequently in the national spotlight during 2008 as the nation noted the 60thanniversaries of some of President Truman’s most historic acts, including the recognition of Israel, his executive order to desegregate the U.S.Armed Forces, the Berlin Airlift, and the 1948 Whistle Stop campaign. We are pleased to share highlights of the past year, all made possible byyour generous support of the Truman Library Institute and our mission to advance the Harry S. Truman Library and Museum.

• On February 15, the Truman Library opened a new exhibit on Truman’s decision to recognize the state of Israel. Truman and Israel: Insidethe Decision was made possible by The Sosland Foundation and The Jacob & Frances O. Brown Family Fund. A traveling version ofthe exhibit currently is on display at the Harry S. Truman Institute for the Advancement of Peace, The Hebrew University, Jerusalem, Israel.

• The nation bade a sad farewell to Margaret Truman Daniel earlier this year. A public memorialservice was held at the Truman Library on February 23, 2008; she and her husband, Clifton Daniel,were laid to rest in the Courtyard near the President and First Lady.

• Tom Brokaw drew a record crowd—more than 820 attendees—to Wild About Harry, the annualfundraising dinner of the Truman Library Institute. The April 2008 event raised $357,000 for theTruman Library’s acclaimed educational programs, public forums, and special exhibitions.

• On May 16, Lincoln: The Constitution and the Civil War opened to great fanfare. The dynamic andinteractive exhibit from the National Constitution Center attracted nearly 56,419 visitors during itsfour-month run. We are grateful for the title sponsorship of UMB Bank and for our media partner, TheKansas City Star.

• U.S. Rep. John Conyers, Jr. provided the keynote address for the Truman Library’s commemorationof President Truman’s desegregation order. A new online exhibit tells the dramatic story of ExecutiveOrder 9981; you can view it at TrumanLibrary.org.

• Along with preserving the artifacts in Truman’s Working Office, construction began on the exhibitgallery, which will afford the public unprecedented viewing of Truman’s office at his presidentiallibrary. Truman’s Working Office will officially re-open on May 8, 2009, the 125th anniversary of HarryTruman’s birth.

• In September, the Truman Library Institute was awarded a prestigious Legacy Fund grant by the EwingMarion Kauffman Foundation. The $250,000 grant was one of only eight legacy gifts awarded to“iconic organizations” for “innovative programs and initiatives that hold promise for advancing thecivic welfare” of Greater Kansas City.

• U.S. Senator and presidential candidate John McCain delivered an economic policy speech from theTruman Library on October 1, 2008, calling President Truman “a man of principle, of wisdom…. Hisaccomplishments in war and peace are among the most significant of any president.”

• Ted Sorensen and NPR’s Scott Simon headlined the second annual Howard & Virginia Bennett Forum on the Presidency. More than700 gathered to hear the panel discuss The Media and the Presidency on October 5, 2008.

The Harry S. Truman Library and Museum is a place of discovery, exploration, scholarship, and lifelong learning. With your ongoing support, theTruman Library will continue its mission to interpret our past, understand our present, and create an inspired future.

Truman Library andMuseum, engraving his name on the roster of presidentialhopefuls who have made a pilgrimage to the hometown andpresidential library of America’s 33rd president, Harry S. Truman.

Senator John McCain on Harry Truman“He was a man of principle, of wisdom and a deep and abidinglove for our country. His accomplishments in war and peaceare among the most significant of any president in thetwentieth century. He succeeded beyond everyone'sexpectations—perhaps, even his own—because every dayHarry Truman woke up determined to put his country beforeparty and self-interest. We would all be better public servants,and the country would be better served, if we tried a little moreoften to keep the example of this good American before us.”

forum on the presidency

On Sunday, October 5, 2008, the Truman Library Institute presented the second annual Howard & Virginia Bennett Forum on thePresidency. The event attracted an audience eager to engage and participate in the topic, The Media and the Presidency: PlayingPolitics. Scott Simon, host of NPR’s Weekend Edition, opened the discussion with a classic reference: “When you talk about thepresidency and the press, any of us in the press have to have a sense of humility. There was probably no more vivid illustration of thefact that the press is often wrong than that famous headline in the Chicago Tribune, ‘Dewey Defeats Truman.’”

True to form, The Howard & Virginia Bennett Forum on the Presidency delivered a spirited dialog among the moderator and panelists,who this year included JFK’s speechwriter, Ted Sorensen; the director of the Nixon Library, Timothy Naftali; and political scientistCostas Panagopoulos. A pre-event reception offered the opportunity for West Wing Council and Buck Stops Here Society members tomeet and visit with these special guests.

“The Howard & Virginia Bennett Forum on the Presidency is the flagship public event for the Truman Library Institute and a must forthe area’s thoughtful and engaged citizen,” said Alex Burden, Institute executive vice president. “We are extremely grateful for thevision and support of Mary and Michael Johnston, who generously endowed the series and continue to play an active role in planningand hosting the annual event.”

premier events | highlights

On April 10, 2008, legendary newsman and best-selling author Tom Brokaw anchored the TrumanLibrary Institute’s annual fundraising dinner, Wild About Harry, delivering a record-breaking event tosupport the legacy of Harry S. Truman and the presidential library and museum which bears hisname. More than 820 attendees filled the ballroom of the Muehlebach Tower, a venue with specialsignificance. For nearly a decade, the Muehlebach Hotel’s Presidential Suite served as Truman’sheadquarters. Sixty years earlier, on election day in 1948, Truman sat in the suite with his staff and

followed the news. When an advisor told Truman aboutsome good early results, Truman responded, “I’ve beentelling you I was going to win all the time.”

The fundraiser, led by event chairs Kay and Tom Martinand honorary chairs Mary and John Hunkeler, raised$357,000 in support of the Truman Library. And in ayear when pundits and presidential hopefuls arerecalling Truman’s decisive and courageous leadership,Kansas City proved it is still Wild about Harry:attendance jumped nearly 25 percent over the previousyear; record-breaking revenues were vaulted by 23 newindividual and corporate sponsors.

The Truman Library Institute gives a presidential saluteto the stellar volunteer leadership, underwriters and sponsors of Wild About Harry, all of whomhelped “smash to smithereens,” as emcee Nick Haines declared, all previous revenue andattendance records.

Wild About Harry proceeds provide vital funding for the Truman Library’s acclaimed forums, educational programs, and exhibitions.

TRUMAN & ISRAELFebruary 15 – April 13, 2008

Marking the 60th anniversary of President Truman’s world-altering decision to recognize thefledgling state of Israel in 1948, Truman & Israel comprised two side-by-side exhibits, Inside theDecision and Portrait 2000. Inside the Decision brought 1948 dramatically to life with firsthandaccounts of the political battle leading up to the recognition of Israel. Among the many originalartifacts and documents included in the exhibit were President Truman’s Cabinet chair; PresidentTruman’s statement offering “de facto” recognition to Israel, May 14, 1948; and correspondencebetween President Truman and several prominent people who offered him advice on the issues ofdisplaced persons and the recognition of Israel. The companion exhibit, Portrait 2000, was organizedby the Midwest Center for Holocaust Education with funding from the Jewish Community Foundationof Greater Kansas City and featured 50 black-and-white portraits of Holocaust refugees andsurvivors who settled in Greater Kansas City.

LINCOLN: THE CONSTITUTION AND THE CIVIL WARMay 16 – September 14, 2008

Neither a traditional biography of Lincoln nor a conventional exhibit on the Civil War, Lincoln: TheConstitution and the Civil War shed light on one of our nation’s darkest periods and a largelyunknown drama. Although the Civil War was a military conflict waged between North and South, atbase it was a Constitutional crisis—the severest test of the American experiment in popular self-government since the founding of the Republic. Lincoln understood this, and his constant focus onthe Constitution enabled him to chart a course that, ultimately, saved both Constitution and country.Organized by the National Constitution Center in partnership with The Lincoln Museum in FortWayne, Indiana, and in cooperation with the Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial Commission, theexhibition focused on the three constitutional crises which Lincoln faced as president: secession,slavery, and civil liberties during the Civil War. During its run, Lincoln: The Constitution and the CivilWar attracted 56,419 visitors; 5,416 of these were students.

Harry Truman left America an enduring legacy.

A legacy of values: responsibility, leadership, decisiveness.

And a commitment to the democratic ideals

that make our nation great.

Harry Truman’s story needs to be shared—now more than ever.

With your support, the Harry S. Truman Library and Museum

will continue to guide us as we journey forward into the

uncharted territory of the 21st century.
