Gary J. Walters is a former White House Chief Usher, appointed by President Ronald Reagan in 1986 and serving until 2007, serving under four different US Presidents. The Charlotte Post wrote that he described his position as, "an all-encompassing job that requires understanding the likes and dislikes of the first family, learning the ways of a tradition-steeped White House, and interacting with a multitude of outside organizations such as the historical association and the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts".[1] Prior to this position, Walters served as an Assistant Usher at the White House since 1976 (appointed by President Gerald Ford), and between 1970 and 1975 he was a part of the United States Secret Service detail to the President. Walters is a graduate of the University of Maryland and former officer with the US Army.[2]
