FOIA 2022-0197-F is a request for all photographs taken on May 13, 1994, by White House photographers. The photographers assigned to follow the President on this day include Sharon Farmer, Ralph Alswang, and Barbara Kinney. Photographers would turn in their daily rolls to the White House Photograph Office for processing and roll number assignment, meaning while images are roughly in chronological order to how they were taken some minor discrepancies will be present depending on what order the material was turned in. FOIA processing for this case will maintain the integrity of the roll numbers assigned. Key events responsive to this case include the President making a phone call to Judge Stephen Breyer, remarks at a commencement ceremony at Gallaudet University in Washington, DC, meeting with senior staff regarding foreign policy at the White House, greeting the “Arkansas Travelers” at the White House, and announcing the nomination of Stephen Breyer for the Supreme Court. Individuals photographed include President William Jefferson Clinton, Vice President Al Gore, Jr., Vicki Radd, Joel Klein, Mack McLarty, George Stephanopoulos, Lloyd Cutler, Strobe Talbot, William Perry, Phil Lader, Tony Lake, Wendy Smith, Harold Ickes, Senator Tom Harkin, Loraine Miller, Clifford Bruffey, Jeanette Anne Pereira, and Andre Laurent Thibeault, among others.

Photographs

Records that were responsive to this FOIA request were found in one collection area and one series—Clinton Presidential Records: Photographs of the White House Photograph Office and the series therein—Photographs Relating to the Clinton Administration. Processing is done at the Folder/Contact sheet level. While this method maintains folder/contact sheet integrity, it frequently results in the processing of photographs that are not wholly responsive to the subject area.

Collection is open to all researchers. Access to Clinton Presidential Records is governed by the Presidential Records Act (PRA) (44 U.S.C. Chapter 22, as amended) and the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552, as amended) and therefore records may be restricted in whole or in part in accordance with legal exemptions.

Official records of William Jefferson Clinton’s presidency are housed at the Clinton Presidential Library and administered by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) under the provisions of the Presidential Records Act (PRA).
