Oval Office, Lyndon B. Johnson Administration

This panoramic photograph of the Oval Office during the Lyndon B. Johnson administration was taken on October 29, 1968 by Michael Geissinger. Before 1909, the president's office was located in the Executive Mansion. During the William H. Taft administration, the West Wing doubled in size from the 1902 renovation and included a presidential oval office. In 1934, during the Franklin D. Roosevelt administration, the West Wing was expanded and renovated, with the Oval Office relocated to the West Wings southeast corner. The man in the photograph is unidentified.
