Panel and Preview: The American Vice President
Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum
Grand Rapids, MI
Wednesday, September 18, 2024 - 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. EDT
Join us for a film preview and discussion of American Experience PBS’ The American Vice President, which tells the little-known story of the second-highest office in the land, tracing its evolution from a constitutional afterthought to a position of political consequence. Focusing on the fraught period between 1963 and 1974, the film examines the passage and first uses of the 25th Amendment and offers a fresh perspective on succession in the executive branch.
The American Vice President premieres on PBS stations nationwide on October 1 at 9/8c.
A panel discussion with filmmakers and participants will follow the film preview.
