T. Rogers Wade discusses Herman Talmadge's early life, the 1946-47 "three governors controversy," segregation, his career in the U.S. Senate, the 1980 senate race, and personal struggles.
T. Rogers Wade served as chief of staff to Senator Herman Talmadge from 1973 to 1980 in Washington, D.C. He then returned to Georgia, and became vice president of Watkins Associated Industries. In 1985, he helped open the public affairs law firm of Edington, Wade and Associates, from which he retired as senior partner. He was a founding member of Leadership Georgia.
