Brian Williams anchors an NBC News special "Inside the Obama White House" which will air in one-hour installments next Tuesday and Wednesday night at 9pmET/PT.

More than a dozen crews and cameras will be placed throughout the White House this Friday. And Williams will interview Pres. Obama next Tuesday, the day before the president leaves for a trip to the Middle East and Europe.

This is the seventh installment over the last 40 years of this NBC News series. "This is one of the greatest traditions in all of broadcast television," said Williams in a press release. "We will show aspects of life in the White House — the Obama White House — that no one on the outside has ever seen before."

NBC's last "Inside the White House" special was in 2002 during the George W. Bush administration and was anchored by Tom Brokaw.
