Summary

On today’s episode, Jack is joined by Clint Hill and Lisa McCubbin Hill.

Clint is a retired United States Secret Service Special Agent and Assistant Director who served five presidential administrations from 1958 to 1975: Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, and Ford.

The defining moment of his career came when he jumped onto the back of the presidential limousine in an effort to protect President Kennedy and First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy during the President’s assassination.

Lisa McCubbin Hill is an award-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author.

In 2009, while working with Gerard Blaine on The Kennedy Detail: JFK's Secret Service Agents Break Their Silence, Lisa met Clint Hill, convincing him to share the memories he buried for 50 years. Today, Clint credits Lisa with helping him “find a reason to live, not just exist.”

Together, Lisa and Clint have co-authored several New York Times bestselling books including Mrs. Kennedy and Me, a memoir of the four years Clint spent with Jacqueline Kennedy, Five Days in November, an account of the Kennedy assassination, and Five Presidents: My Extraordinary Journey with Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon and Ford, covering the period from 1958 to 1975.

Their latest My Travels with Mrs. Kennedy is available now.
