During the Nixon administration (1969â74), First Lady Pat Nixon refurbished the Green Room, Blue Room, and Red Room, working with Clement Conger, the curator appointed by President Richard Nixon. Mrs. Nixon's efforts brought more than 600 artifacts to the house, the largest acquisition by any administration.
The room is used for the President's staff meetings as well as larger meetings involving Congress. Increasingly over the past few decades, the Roosevelt Room has been used to announce new staff members or promotions. Since the room is in close proximity to the Oval Office, the Roosevelt Room is often used as a Green Room where people, delegates or dignitaries with meetings with the President wait.
