As a Certified Speaking Professional\, the highest earned designation from the National Speakers Association\, he is recognized for sustained excellence\, professionalism\, and impact on the speaking stage. A graduate of Stanford University and Georgetown University Law Center\, Adrian began his career in public service. From 1999 to 2001\, he served as a special assistant to President Bill Clinton with the Initiative for One America – the first free-standing office in the White House to address issues of racial\, religious and ethnic reconciliation. He later worked as a senior policy analyst for Colorado Governor Bill Ritter Jr. \nAdrian has authored four acclaimed books examining soul food\, barbecue history\, and the stories of chefs who shaped presidential cuisine. His work has earned two James Beard Awards and numerous national honors. His most recent book\, Cooking to the President’s Taste\, published by the White House Historical Association in 2025\, expands his scholarship into Asian heritage chefs in White House history. \nDaniel Vaughn is the author of The Prophets of Smoked Meat: A Journey Through Texas Barbecue\, the coauthor of Whole Hog BBQ: The Gospel of Carolina Barbecue\, and the barbecue editor at Texas Monthly. He has traveled the world sampling smoked meats at over 1\,800 barbecue joints\, most of which are in Texas.\nBook sales and signing \nThe Store at LBJ will be selling copies of several of Adrian Miller’s books\, including Black Smoke: African Americans and the United States of Barbecue; Soul Food: The Surprising Story of an American Cuisine\, One Plate at a Time; and The President’s Kitchen Cabinet: The Story of the African Americans Who Have Fed Our First Families\, from the Washingtons to the Obamas. Miller will sign copies purchased onsite following the program. \nBy purchasing through the Store at LBJ\, you support a local cultural institution. All proceeds from sales support our programming\, exhibits\, and educational initiatives at the LBJ Presidential Library.\nAbout The American Experiment exhibit \nThrough an exceptional partnership with the National Archives and Records Administration and the Briscoe Center for American History\, the LBJ Presidential Library will showcase extraordinary original documents that have shaped the course of American history. Across four rotating exhibitions on display May 30 through January 10\, visitors will encounter defining moments—from the Brown v. Board of Education decision and the Fourteenth Amendment to the Louisiana Purchase and the Wright Brothers’ Flying Machine Patent. \nDocuments on display on the evening of July 23rd will include the Bill of Rights (Senate Amendments) from September 14\, 1789; the Dred Scott v. Sandford Judgement; Voting Rights Act of 1965; and the original design for the Great Seal of the United States\, 1782; among others. \nThe American Experiment initiative pairs these iconic artifacts with dynamic public programs featuring leading historians\, authors\, and thought leaders. Together\, we hope to explore how the American story has unfolded over 250 years—and where it may go next.\nLocation and parking \nThe conversation will be hosted in the 10th floor Atrium of the LBJ Presidential Library. Free parking will be available at the LBJ Library visitors’ lot located at 2313 Red River Street.\nRegistration \nAdvance registration is requested as space is limited. Please register here.
