Presidential Libraries
November 10, 2008
What’s an ex-president without his own library?
Herbert Hoover has one. Richard Nixon has two. Even Gerald Ford (who, whatever his fine qualities, was never actually elected to the office) has seen his legacy spread over two different facilities.
Who else has one, and where are they all located?
Here’s the list:
Herbert Hoover: West Branch, Iowa
Franklin D. Roosevelt: Hyde Park, New York
Harry S. Truman: Independence, Missouri
Dwight D. Eisenhower: Abilene, Kansas
John F. Kennedy: Boston, Massachusetts
Lyndon B. Johnson: Austin, Texas
Richard M. Nixon: College Park, Maryland
Richard M. Nixon: Yorba Linda, California
Gerald R. Ford: Ann Arbor, Michigan
Gerald R. Ford: Grand Rapids, Michigan
Jimmy Carter: Atlanta, Georgia
Ronald Reagan: Simi Valley, California
George H.W. Bush: College Station, Texas
William J. Clinton: Little Rock, Arkansas
