Above is Jack Valentine by LBJ’s side after Kennedy’s assassination.
Today the WSJ has obtained the FBI files of Herbert Hoover during the LBJ era. Their findings are the following:
“But back in 1964, Valenti was a Houston ad executive newly installed at the White House as a top aide to President Lyndon B. Johnson. And J. Edgar Hoover’s FBI found itself quietly consumed with the vexing question of whether Valenti was gay.
“Previously confidential FBI files show that Hoover’s deputies set out to determine whether Valenti, who had married two years earlier, maintained a relationship with a male commercial photographer. … No proof was ever found.”
Three years after leaving Washington, Valenti became head of the Motion Picture Association. Click here for more details.
