GOOD MORNING SAN DIEGO (KUSI) 
​
BY MILO LOFTIN

SAN DIEGO (KUSI) - It isn't oft-photographed like the White House. It's not the site of celebrity-filled black-tie state dinners. It's not the backdrop for our selfies. Yet Camp David plays a crucial, and often unheralded role in the modern presidency, one that hasn't been examined closely, until now. INSIDE CAMP DAVID: The Private World of the Presidential Retreat, by Rear Admiral Michael Giorgioni, takes readers inside the gates of the private retreat atop Maryland's Catoctin Mountains.

Answer by Michael Giorgione, author of Inside Camp David, on Quora:

During my time at Camp David from 1999 to 2001, the crew and I had the privilege of serving President Bill Clinton and President George W. Bush, plus their families, friends and administration officials. My family and I also had the great fortune to meet President Jimmy Carter and his family and President George H.W. Bush and his family, the Bushes on several occasions.
