The Washington Secretaries History Project

"This is Boom-Town-on-the-Potomac for secretaries. For every 'Mr. Big' in Government and Business there is a 'Miss Little' who backs up the boss. From the hills of New England, from Southern plantations, Midwest prairies, and the slopes of California, thousands of 'typewriter jockeys' have arrived on our wide avenues. Without them, the Government's business would collapse and most bureaucrats would go home." -- Marjorie Binford Woods, The Washington Post, April 28, 1946

Bravo, Joey!

Joey called last night after performing at the “Let Freedom Ring” concert at The Kennedy Center celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday. He said it was an "awesome" experience that included a warm "shake-a-leg" exchange with Smokey Robinson before going on stage. You can view the performance by clicking here. The introduction begins at the 21 minute mark; the performance at 22 minutes.
