William “Bill” Jordan (1929-2015) served for 13 years as the Administrative Assistant to Senator Richard B. Russell. Senator Lyndon Johnson was the protege of Richard Russell, with Russell helping to pave the way for Johnson to become Senator Majority Leader. Johnson and Russell often dined together, with Bill Jordan being a frequent companion and first-person witness to history. Jordan went on to serve on the professional staff of the Senate Appropriations Committee, retiring in 1980.
