Washington, DC
Richard Nixon (b. January 9, 1913; d. April 22, 1994) was the 37th President and 36th Vice President of the United States. While President, from 1969 to 1974, he was credited with both escalating and ending US involvement in the Vietnam War, creating a more robust federal environmental program, and ending the draft. The US also saw the first moon landing while he was in office in 1969. Midway through Nixon’s second term, revelations around the Watergate Scandal led to his 1974 resignation. While serving as vice president, Nixon lived in this fieldstone tudor home located at 4308 Forest Lane NW, from 1957 to 1961.
