1 George Bush Presidential Library 1000 George Bush Drive West College Station, TX phone: (979) fax: (979) Inventory for FOIA Request Joseph Shattan Files Extent 204 folders Access Collection is open to all researchers. Access to Bush Presidential Records, Bush Vice Presidential Records, and Quayle Vice Presidential Records is governed by the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)(5 USC 552 as amended) and the Presidential Records Act (PRA)(44 USC 22) and therefore records may be restricted in whole or in part in accordance with legal exemptions. Copyright Documents in this collection that were prepared by officials of the United States government as part of their official duties are in the public domain. Researchers are advised to consult the copyright law of the United States (Title 17, USC) which governs the making of photocopies or other reproductions of copyrighted material. Provenance Official records of George Bush s presidency and vice presidency are housed at the George Bush Presidential Library and administered by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) under the provisions of the Presidential Records Act (PRA). Processed By Staff Archivists, April Previously restricted materials are added as they are released. Scope and Content The materials in FOIA are a selective, not necessarily all inclusive, body of documents responsive to the topic of the FOIA. Researchers should consult the archivist about related materials. FOIA contains materials created and assembled by Joseph Shattan covering the years 1989 through Shattan served Vice President Dan Quayle as a speechwriter. These documents are found in five subseries: Approved Activity, Invitation, and Schedule Files; Meeting Files; Press Release Files; Speech Files; and Subject Files. 1

2 The Staff and Office Files contain routine government forms such as Approved Vice President Activity Sheets and scheduling logs. These documents tracked information such as event type, date, time, location, contact person, remarks required, and press coverage. There are also routine memos exchanged between staffers discussing the requests for Vice President Quayle to speak on various topics at numerous locations. Many letters between Vice President Quayle, his staffers and private citizens are also present in this collection. Mainly, the correspondence covers requests for the Vice President to receive awards, speak at various events, and meet with administrators and subject-matter authorities. Also present are transcripts of speeches, note cards, press releases, and lists of attendees at some of the Vice President s speaking engagements. Vice President Quayle addressed a wide variety of topics and appeared at many venues (both domestic and foreign) so there are many transcripts of speeches in the collection. He spoke at inaugural dinners, the dedication of the Strom Thurmond Institute at Clemson University, the swearing-in ceremony for the President s Council of Advisors for Science and Technology, the Republican Governors Association Annual Conference, and the National Endowment for Democracy Awards Dinner. Several of Vice President Quayle s speeches were addressed to religious audiences, particularly to those of the Jewish faith. Vice President Quayle also spoke to audiences on foreign affairs topics such as U.S. policy in Asia, the role of international broadcasters in East-West relations and public diplomacy, the new political leaders in Latin America, globalization of agricultural markets, and newly-established democracies throughout the world. In his official capacity as Chairman of the National Space Council, Vice President Quayle addressed many groups on the administration s vision of space exploration. Of particular note are the remarks Vice President Quayle made upon the return of the remains of Col. William Higgins and Lt. Col. William Buckley, who were both killed while serving the U.S. in Lebanon. Patriotism was another widelyaddressed topic when Vice President Quayle spoke to groups such as the Veterans of Foreign Wars, attendees at the Memorial Day Service conducted at the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National Cemetery, National Young Republicans, graduates of the United States Military Academy, families of soldiers stationed at Fort Bragg and Pope Air Force Base, attendees of the National League of POW/MIA Families Annual Meeting, and the National Guard Association. Foreign visits brought Vice President Quayle to South America, the Far East and Eastern Europe. His remarks covered such topics as the inauguration of newly-elected officials, cooperation between Europe and the U.S., free trade on the international front, and Operation Desert Storm. Other transcripts are present, including Vice President Quayle s appearances and interviews with news outlets such as press conferences, and television programs. The note cards and press releases contain speaking points that Vice President made at some of his personal appearances. System of Arrangement Records that are responsive to this FOIA request were found in one collection area Quayle Vice Presidential Records: Staff and Office Files. As policy, Staff and Office Files are processed at the folder level, that is, individual documents are not selected and removed from a folder for processing. While this method maintains folder integrity, it frequently results in the incidental processing of documents that are not wholly responsive to the subject area. The following is a list of documents and folders processed in response to FOIA.
