## HEADING: HISTORICAL ## LEFT COLUMN 1271. "L B J" THE AMERICAN EXPERIENCE: "LBJ" Part 1. 9/30/91 LBJ PART 1 9/30/91 Return: The fourth season begins with writer-pro- ducer David Grubin's four-hour political biog- raphy of Lyndon Baines Johnson--a mover, a driver, a charmer [and] a bully who also was narrator David McCullough says, the central character in a struggle of moral importance end- ing in ruin. Part 1 opens by examining LBJ's start in Texas politics as a New Deal Congressman in the late 1930s; the "stolen" Senate election of 1948, in which "Landslide Lyndon" beat Gov. Coke Ste- venson by 87 votes; and his rising power in the '50s as Senate majority leader. During these years, one-time Presidential Press Secretary George Reedy notes, Johnson mastered the art of persuasion through "an incredible blend of cajoling cajolery, reminders of past favors [and] promises of future favors. LBJ's failed Presidential bid in 1960 led to a frustrating stint as John Kennedy's Vice Presi- dent. "My future," he told an aide, "is behind me." It wasn't, and Part 1 concludes with the early days of LBJ's Presidency, which saw bold initiatives on domestic issues. It also saw the es- calation of an "inherited" conflict in Vietnam. Among those interviewed: Lady Bird Johnson George Ball, Clark Clifford, John Connally, Dan- iel Ellsberg, J. William Fulbright, Dean Rusk, R. Sargent Shriver, Roger Wilkins. (2 hrs.)
