About
His politics was "unabashedly conservative, Republican and pro-American". He had close associations with leading Republicans of the era, including Barry Goldwater, Richard Nixon and Spiro Agnew. Copley's presence was a chief reason that the 1972 Republican National Convention was originally planned to be in San Diego.
Copley resided in La Jolla, California, and often stayed at a second home in Borrego Springs, California.
