Theodore C. Sorensen spent nearly two decades closely associated with the ideas and ideals of John and Robert F. Kennedy as a trusted adviser and friend. Known as John F. Kennedy's "alter ego," lawyer, adviser and speechwriter for eleven years, he was Special Counsel to the President from 1961 to 1964. After the publication of his bestseller Kennedy, he went back into private law practice and continued to advise and consult old friend Robert F.
