‘LBJ’ SCREENING The National Archives | PHOTOS BY BEN DROZ A PRESIDENT REVEALED During a private screening of “LBJ” actor Woody Harrelson, who plays the title role, was seen laughing alongside the 36th president’s eldest daughter, Lynda Robb. The film’s director, Rob Reiner, was pleased with her high spirits, expressing to the audience post-screening that Robb’s opinion of the biopic was paramount. The viewing was a reunion of sorts for administration staffers who included Johnson administration chief of protocol Lloyd Hand and current and past members of Congress from both sides of the aisle, including Sen. Susan Collins and Chris Dodd

TRANSCENDING FAITH Once disillusioned with his church, Mark Shriver came out of his “Catholic funk” after a new pope arrived on the scene three years ago and his recent book, “Pilgrimage: My Search for the Real Pope Francis,” chronicles the pontiff’s journey from humble parish priest to the world’s most powerful religious leader. “It’s less a historic book and more a story of his friends and colleagues,” Shriver told guests, adding that he preferred to focus on Francis’ “faith, humility and mercy.”
