SCOPE
& CONTENT
This collection contains five series.
While it includes speeches by the Vice President, the material does not
appear to be from Robinson’s time working for Vice President Bush, 1982-1983.
SERIES I: SPEECH DRAFTS, 1983-1988 (4.2 l.f., Boxes 1-11)
This series consists of material authored by Peter Robinson for remarks, speeches and tapings given by President Reagan and the occasional speech by White House staff members. The majority of folders simply contain the finished product – either the press release version of the remarks or the President’s teleprompter copy. For larger “topic” speeches they may contain some edits and various drafts. The material is arranged in chronological order of the remarks, speeches and tapings. It begins with an RNC Luncheon in September 1983 and concludes with in address in June 1988. More detailed drafting of Robinson speeches can be found in the Office of the Speechwriting: Speech Drafts.
SERIES II: SUBJECT FILES, 1983-1988 (2.2 l.f., Boxes 11-17)
This series consists of material related to general subjects. It is mostly dated from 1983-1988, but does include a few pre-1983 items including Reagan’s two most used speeches from the 1960s and book excerpts. The material consists of newspaper clippings, magazine articles and publications from the Department of State. It also contains a number of subject review papers and memos from the Office of Public Affairs, the Office of Management and Budget, other White House offices, Congress, the Republican Party and other outside agencies. Included are handwritten notes of Robinson meetings with various staff members including Lyn Nofziger and Don Regan. It also includes quotes and joke files. In only a few instances are included drafts or speech ideas for a particular subject. The material is arranged in alphabetical order by subject.
SERIES III: REFERENCE FILES, 1983-1988 (0.6 l.f., Boxes 17-19)
This series consists of material specific to certain speeches. The folders may contain Peter Robinson handwritten notes regarding a topic or specific speech, copies of some drafts, the final version of the speech and newspaper clippings on the reaction to the speech. It also contains input from outside sources similar to Series II regarding a specific speech. The material is arranged alphabetically.
SERIES IV: CHRONOLOGICAL FILES, 1984-1987 (0.1 l.f., Box 19)
This series consists of outgoing memos and correspondence to White House offices, public citizens and personal contacts. The material was removed from two 3-ring binders and foldered. Binder #1 (03/27/1985-10/28/1985) also contained a few news clippings, and speech drafts. The material is arranged in chronological order.
SERIES V: PERSONAL FILES, 1983-1988 (0.1 l.f., Box 19)
This series consists of personal material relative to Peter Robinson. It includes personal correspondence, notes on personal meetings, and notes on personal Catholic retreats. It also includes folders on possible outside employment in the private sector. The material is arranged alphabetically.
