The Outgoing Introvert

Not exactly an extravert himself, Richard Nixon describes his elder daughter Tricia, 24, as the introvert of the family. "She does not like the limelight," he said in a recent interview. Despite her passion for privacy, Tricia handles public appearances with great panache. This month she is featured in a six-page fashion layout accompanying her father's Ladies' Home Journal interview, and shares the center fold with her sister Julie in Vogue. She led millions of television viewers on a tour of the White House living quarters, displaying an enviable stage presence as she showed off family mementos and shared some family secrets. Then she was hostess to 2,000 children at a concert on the White House lawn. Questioned by reporters following the concert, Tricia said that her television appearance had brought her several offers of on-camera jobs. She turned them down. "What I'd really like," she said as she watched newsmen scribble down her answers, "is a job like yours."
