It's Christmas. Do you think there are 3 wise men or 6 wise men? Or 6 wise men and women? Ever heard of Tuxedo Park, NY? How about the name Harriman?
This is Mary Williamson Harriman. Interesting woman. She donated quite a bit of land and sold other parcels and businesses that now make up unincorporated Tuxedo Park.
One of her sons is Averell Harriman. Served as Secretary of Commerce under Harry S. Truman. Potus and Flotus are standing under Harry S. Truman. He was also JFK's Asst. Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs and also Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs.
As a member of "The Wise Men," he helped create bi-partisan foreign policy based on the resistance to Soviet Expansion. The Wise Men were the "hidden architects" behind The Truman Doctrine, The Marshall Plan and Cold War containment.
After Kennedy's assasination, Averell was heavily involved with Vietnam under Johnson and then became affiliated with organizations like the Club of Rome and the CFR. The Skull and Bones Yale Grad went on to form Harriman Brothers and Company with his brother, Roland.
