Not since Jacqueline Kennedy's iconic work on the White House has a designer of Michael Smith's stature been commissioned to bring a new design spirit to the mansion. Through extensive photography, behind-the-scenes stories, and rich archival material, the book places the Obama White House within the context of the building's storied past and its evolution over the past two centuries. The book beautifully documents the process of updating the country's most symbolic residence, revealing how Smith's collaboration on the decoration, showcasing of artworks, and style of entertaining reflected the youthful spirit of the First Family and their vision of a more progressive, inclusive American society. Ultimately, this book will serve as both a historical document and a voyeur's delight, capturing a specific moment in time for the White House, the Obamas, and the American experience.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 747.09753 Sm Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 747.09753 Smith Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 747.09753 Sm Checked In Add Copy to MyList
