I stand today to recognize and honor Jack Valenti: a man from humble beginnings who achieved widespread recognition and respect in a career of remarkable and memorable accomplishments. I would also like to introduce an article from the New York Times entitled. "Walking with Presidents and (Hollywoods) Kings." His recent passing is a great loss to his family and many friends. Jack Valenti. the son of a tax clerk and grandchild of Sicilian immigrants. was born September. 1921 in Houston. Texas. He admirably served the United States during World War II as a member of the Army Air Corps. earning the Distinguished Flying Cross. and later received his Master of Business Administration from Harvard University.
