A Conversation with Tip O’Neill

Here’s a taste of one of the best local Cambridge television programs ever produced – the original Cambridge Inside Out. This was a 1992 conversation with Cambridge’s own former Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill. Host Glenn Koocher, Barbara Ackermann, Tom Rafferty, Saundra Graham, and Marty Foster join in the conversation.

These videos are taken from an aged VHS extended-play recording. The video quality may not be the best, but Tip O’Neill’s humanity and political savvy come through very clearly.
