  • The Committee for the Preservation of the White House is an advisory committee charged with the preservation of the White House, the official home and principal workplace of the president of the United States. The committee is largely made up of citizens appointed by the president for their experience with historic preservation, architecture, decorative arts, and for their scholarship in these areas. The Committee for the Preservation of the White House was created by executive order in 1964 by President Lyndon Johnson to replace a temporary White House Furnishings Committee established by First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy during the Kennedy White House restoration (1961–1963). The committee is charged with establishing policies relating to the museum function of the White House, its state rooms and collections. It also works with the White House Historical Association in making recommendations on acquisitions for the permanent collection of the White House and provides advice on changes to principal rooms on the ground floor, state floor, and the historic guest suites on the residence floor of the White House Executive Residence. The executive order states that the curator of the White House, Chief Usher of the White House, Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, the chair of the United States Commission of Fine Arts, and director of the National Gallery of Art serve as ex officio members of the committee. The director of the National Park Service serves as chair of the committee, and the First Lady serves as the honorary chair of the committee. In February 2010, Los Angeles interior designer Michael S. Smith was appointed to the committee; in August of that year, his makeover of the Oval Office was revealed to the public. (en)

Le comité est largement composé de citoyens américains nommés par le président pour leur expérience dans la préservation historique, l'architecture, les arts décoratifs et leur connaissances académiques dans ces domaines. Le comité fut créé par un ordre exécutif de 1964 du président Lyndon Johnson pour remplacer le temporaire Comité d'ameublement de la Maison-Blanche créé par la First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy lors de la rénovation Kennedy du bâtiment (1961–1963). Le comité est chargé d'établir les politiques relatives aux fonctions de musée que joue la Maison-Blanche, ses salles d'État et ses collections. Il travaille également avec l'Association historique de la Maison-Blanche pour faire des recommandations sur les acquisitions pour la collection permanente de la Maison-Blanche et fournir des conseils pour les changements dans les principales pièces du rez-de-chaussée, l'étage d'État (State floor) et les suites historiques des invités du second étage (l'étage de résidence). L'ordre exécutif déclare que le conservateur de la Maison-Blanche, l'huissier en chef de la Maison-Blanche, le secrétaire de la Smithsonian Institution, le président de la Commission des beaux-arts des États-Unis et le directeur de la National Gallery of Art sont membres ex officio du comité. Le directeur du National Park Service préside le comité (le site de la Maison-Blanche est inclus dans le President's Park, un des parcs nationaux de Washington gérés par le National Park Service) et la First Lady est présidente honoraire du comité.
