KEISLER, PETER
D.: Files, 1986-1988
Counsel
to the President, Office of: Associate Counsel to the President, Assistant
Counsel to the President
Biography
Keisler was born on October 13, 1960 near his
family’s home in Woodmere, New York, one of the Long Island suburbs of New York
City. His first paid work consisted of roles in television and radio
commercials during his high school years. In June 1981, Keisler
graduated magna cum laude from Yale
University, with a B.A. in Political Science. He did a summer volunteer
internship (June-September 1981) in the White House Office of Public Liaison,
under Public Liaison staff member Morton Blackwell. In November, he took a
position in the Leadership Institute, the private educational foundation
founded by Blackwell.
Keisler left the Leadership Institute in the
fall of 1982 to attend Yale Law School. In 1984, while Keisler
was still in law school, President Reagan appointed him to the National
Advisory Council on Women’s Educational Programs, a
group of private sector and government representatives that recommended
policies to achieve educational equity for women and girls. Keisler completed his National Advisory Council term, and
obtained his law degree in June 1985. He then worked as a law clerk for Judge
Robert H. Bork, a judge on the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia
Circuit, until August 1986.
In
September 1986, Peter Keisler joined the Reagan White
House Counsel’s office as an Assistant Counsel. He was promoted to Associate
Counsel in June 1987, and remained in this position until he left the White
House staff effective February 15, 1988. Keisler’s
specific assignments included working with the Independent Counsel
investigating the Lyn Nofziger/Wedtech
matter, responding to Freedom of Information Act and Privacy Act requests
addressed to the White House, creating the background briefing books on Robert
Bork, Douglas Ginsburg, and Anthony Kennedy, creating and implementing
confirmation strategy for the Bork, Ginsburg and Kennedy nominations, reviewing
legal and dealing with the release of Nixon Presidential materials, and working
on the Legal Analysis Team reviewing the legal statutes covering the actions
taken in the Iran-Contra Affair.
After
Keisler left the White House, he worked for a year as
a law clerk for Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy. From 1989 to 2002 Keisler was in the Washington, DC office of the law firm
Sidley, Austin, Brown & Wood, first as an associate (1989-1993), then as a
full partner (1993-2002). In 2001, President George W. Bush nominated Keisler for a seat on the US Court of Appeals for the 4th
Circuit which had traditionally gone to a Maryland resident. However,
Maryland’s two Democratic Senators successfully blocked the nomination, in part
on the grounds that while Keisler lived in Maryland,
he was not licensed to practice law in that state. In June 2002, Keisler took a position in the Department of Justice. In
April 2003, President Bush nominated him to be Assistant Attorney General for
the Department of Justice’s Civil Division. The Senate confirmed Keisler in June, and he was sworn in on July 1. In this
position Keisler argued cases before many federal
courts, including the Supreme Court, on behalf of the Administration. For six
months he was Acting Associate Attorney General, the third-ranking position in
the Justice Department. In June 2006, President Bush nominated Keisler to the US Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, to
fill the position vacated by John G. Roberts when Roberts became Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court. Keisler’s nomination has been
returned to the White House twice by the Senate. The President has renominated
Mr. Keisler three times, the last being January 9,
2007. As of this date, his nomination is
still pending.
Scope and
Content Note
Keisler’s records from his White House
Counsel employment are somewhat different from other attorneys working within
this office. His subject files rarely
contain the actual work or response he conducted regarding the specific
subject. This material is more likely
found in the chronological file. Subject
file folders often contain only citation and precedent material regarding a
particular issue. Fuller documentation
for issues is found in the specific series regarding the Supreme Court
nomination for the Powell Court vacancy, Legal Analysis Team for the
Iran-Contra affair and the investigation of Wedtech/Welbilt.
The
collection consists of five series: Series I: Peter Keisler
Chronological File; Series II: Subject File; Series III: Supreme Court
Nominations/Confirmations (contains four subseries); Series IV: Iran
Contra/Iran-Contra Legal Analysis Team; Series V: Investigations
SERIES I:
CHRONOLOGICAL FILE, 1986-1988. (2.8 l.ft., Boxes 1-7)
This
series consists of correspondence, notes and, memos from Peter Keisler to White House Counsel staff,
other White House staff, agency personnel, Congress and the general
public. It contains the most complete
set of Keisler’s direct work product for his time in
the White House Counsel’s office. Background material is often attached to his
correspondence including full White House Records Management Subject File case
files where Keisler was the action officer.
The
material is arranged in chronological order.
SERIES II:
SUBJECT FILE, 1986-1988. (6 l.ft., Boxes 8-22)
This
series consists of mostly journal and newspaper articles, Lexus/Nexus searches,
speeches, Congressional testimony, court decisions and filings and copies of
Executive Orders, Public Laws and White House press release & signing
statements. Subjects covered are the
task Force on Regulatory Relief, Sentencing Commission & reform, conflict
of interest and ethical issues, the ineligibility clause, Independent Counsel regulations, judicial selection, affirmative action,
Fairness in Broadcasting Act of 1987, some specific court cases and other
selective subjects. As stated above, the
material within this series tends to be background information rather than
actions or decisions made by the Keisler or the White
House Counsel’s office. It is arranged
alphabetically.
