In 1969 Jeb Magruder began working as a special assistant to President Nixon. After doing some work on the midterm elections of 1970, he became the deputy campaign director with the Committee for the Re-Election of the President and then went on to work for the Commerce Department. In 1974 he was sentenced to prison on Watergate related charges, prompting him to publish a memoir, An American Life: One Man’s Road to Watergate. Mr. Magruder discussed his early work in politics and the Nixon administration and the re-election campaign.
