Chief of Staff Herbert Brownell gathered a group of supporters, including former members of Hiram Johnson's staff. Dewey's inner circle includes former staffers and family members of Johnson, Willkie, and McNary, who all died rather close together. The remainder were Brownell, a handful of Roosevelts and Rockefellers, the Dulles brothers, and James Hagerty.
