collections saved for the Library
The White House Gift Unit functioned as a unit under the supervision of the Office of Correspondence and the ultimate supervision of Anne Higgins, Assistant to the President for Correspondence. However, the Gift Unit had functioned as its own office prior to mid-1981 and was housed in a separate location from the Office of Correspondence. In addition, staffers Mary Powers and John Hilboldt were given the title: Director of the White House Gift Unit.
