Lawrence Spinelli discusses his new book "Watergate's Unexpected Hero: The Life of Peter Rodino Jr." Rodino was a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from New Jersey for forty years- and was chair of the House Judiciary Committee for the impeachment hearings against President Richard Nixon in 1974. Those televised hearings made Rodino one of the most famous men in America for a time. This is the first full-length biography of Rodino, who chose not to capitalize on his newfound fame in any way. Rodino is widely praised for the sense of restraint and care with which he chaired the committee during that tumultuous time in our nation's history.
