#OTD 10/9/1972 First Lady Pat Nixon helped kick off the Nixon-Agnew reelection campaign. She reportedly christened "The Simply Amazing Three Dimensional Two Tone Transcontinental Nixon Agnew New Majority People Machine" bus by pouring water from a ceramic elephant on the front end. Mrs. Nixon also held a football for Tom Dempsey, placekicker for the Philadelphia Eagles, to punt toward the crowd. Senator Bob Dole (wearing a brown suit) is center in the football image.

For Women’s History Month this year we’re profiling some of the pioneering women of the Ford administration. Today, we are featuring Anne Armstrong, Counselor to the President and the first woman to serve as Ambassador to the United Kingdom of Great Britain.

Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, Armstrong attended Vassar College. She quickly rose to in prominence in the Republican Party, becoming the first woman to make a keynote address at a major political convention at the Republican National Convention in 1972 in Miami Beach. In 1973, she was the first woman to be named Counselor to the President. 

Armstrong achieved another first in 1976 when she became Ambassador to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. As Ambassador, she helped oversee U.S.-U.K. relations during the Bicentennial year and dealt with other issues such as energy. She was also the first U.S. ambassador to the Court of St. James to visit Northern Ireland.

After her time with the Ford administration Armstrong returned to government service in 1981, serving as Chair of the President's Intelligence Advisory Board until 1990. In 1987 she received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian award, from Ronald Reagan.

The Office of Women’s Programs

Presidential Counsellor Anne Armstrong created the Office of Women’s Programs (OWP) in the Nixon White House in February 1973 and brought it into the Ford administration.The office provided liaison between the President and women as a special interest group, encouraged recruitment of women for top-level government positions and initiated and assisted in the development of programs, policies, legislation and regulations supporting women's civil rights. In addition, the office sponsored a number of meetings attended by Mrs. Ford and occasionally sent her briefings concerning women's issues.

When Armstrong resigned in December 1974 the OWP was transferred to the Office of Public Liaison. Karen Keesling became Director of the OWP. Patricia Lindh, Armstrong's assistant, was appointed to the new position of Special Assistant to the President for Women and worked with Keesling during the United Nations' International Women's Year, 1975. Retired Major General Jeanne Holm succeeded Lindh when she resigned in March 1976.

During the Ford administration the OWP made contact with over 300 women's organizations, agency women's groups and program units, and advisory committees on women and women appointees. For more on their work, see the Patricia Lindh and Jeanne Holm Files.
