Collection Overview
Scope and Content Note
Judith Ann Johnston, a former legal secretary, joined the Domestic Council staff as a secretary in February 1973. She first worked in the office of the Executive Director, Kenneth Cole, but from October 1974 on she was staff secretary for the Domestic Council under the Deputy Director for Operations.
As staff secretary, Johnston was responsible for maintaining the Domestic Council administrative files. She supported the staff in their day-to-day operations and, with the Domestic Council reorganization in February 1976, assumed further duties from her former supervisor, Warren Hendriks. She handled routine administrative tasks such as compiling budget figures and tracking numbers of personnel on duty and staff details from other agencies. In addition, she retained personnel files on some former Domestic Council employees.
