Which President was in office during both of Tuchman's Pulitzer wins?

  • Kennedy

  • Nixon

  • Johnson

  • Eisenhower

Answer

Nixon is the answer you seek, for he held office when both of Tuchman's Pulitzer wins came to pass. Tuchman's first Pulitzer win was for "The Guns of August" in 1963, and her second was for "Stilwell and the American Experience in China, 1911-1945" in 1971. Nixon's presidency spanned from 1969 to 1974.
