The late twentieth and early twenty-first century transition to digital culture and the subsequent rise of social media transformed photography yet again, and in doing so transformed the ways presidents interacted with it. Highlighting moments in the presidencies of Harry Truman, Dwight Eisenhower, John Kennedy, Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Barack Obama, and more, the chapter explores the impact of television and the internet, examines the push-pull relationship between the visual press and the presidency, and outlines the history of the job of official White House photographer. |
