Former Secretary of State Warren Christopher dies
March 19, 2011 - 8:00 am
When he took over as secretary of state in the Clinton administration at age 68, Warren M. Christopher said he didn't expect to travel much. He went on to set a four-year mark for miles traveled by America's top diplomat. The attorney turned envoy tirelessly traveled to Bosnia and the Middle East on peace missions during his 1993-1996 tenure. Late Friday, the 85-year-old statesman died at his home in Los Angeles of complications from bladder and kidney cancer.
