Gregory Peck, Honorary Chairman, The Sarah and Jim Brady Society For many years, long before he became a White House press secretary, Jim Brady was affectionately known as "The Bear," due to his lovable manner. Thanks to Jim and Sarah and their heroic struggle against adversity, since the assassination attempt on President Reagan's life, "The Bear" has come to symbolize the growing strength and size of the entire gun violence prevention movement.
