HBO’S NIXON BY NIXON: IN HIS OWN WORDS
UPDATE: NOMINATED FOR THREE NEWS & DOCUMENTARY EMMY AWARDS IN JULY 2015!
On Aug. 9, 1974, Richard Milhous Nixon became the first American president to resign from office. From 1971 to 1973, he had secretly recorded his private conversations, purportedly “for the purpose of historical record,” but in the wake of the Watergate scandal the revelation of the tapes led to his downfall.
Presented in conjunction with the 40th anniversary of his resignation and featuring excerpts from the tapes, as well as original press reports and Nixon’s reflections a decade after the tapes were revealed, the fascinating documentary NIXON BY NIXON: IN HIS OWN WORDS debuted on HBO in August 2014 and is directed Peter Kunhardt (HBO’s “Gloria: In Her Own Words” and the Emmy-winning “Teddy: In His Own Words”) and edited by Phillip Schopper, the team behind HBO’s In Their Own Words films.
