Alice Drought, Ph.D., Editor 0 EDITORIAL ....I SENIOR ACI'ION '86 0018 UWERWAY N::M IS THE TIME to see that every Arizona town and County Board of -(..) Supervisors proclaims 1986 as Senior Action Year, just as Governor z Babbitt has proclairred it for the State of Arizona. The mission statement shared at our March 11th Kick-Off luncheon for :::> this Senior ACI1ION Year set forth the following goals: to secure 0 maximum federal and state funding for long term care; to support (..) programs for health and fitness; to increase state support for pro­ grams helping older Arizonans; to promote work and service oppor­ tunities for senior citizens; to use the talents and life experi­ > ences of senior adults as a neans for inproving the quality of life a: for all; and to support community activities that will contribute 0 to intergenerational understanding among all age groups. en At the luncheon, reference was made to a recent Hugh Downs news release declaring that "Old people were tirne travellers, full of -> experience and ••• burnished with a patina of wisdom." But he !X)ints C out that the tragedy of age is often nonrecognition. Through concerted effort in meeting the goals of our mission statement, let's < change this attitude. Let's rally together in 1986 to demonstrate that older people..a.t:e "repositories of accumrrulated exi;erience" as Mr. en Downs contends. "' a: Let's step up our ma.rshalling for support of long term care financing. 0 Let's assist all senior organizations in their resolve to get all of our older citizens registered to vote. Let's identify our centenar­ z ians (and our junior centenarians ages 95-99). 'We are preparing a a: list of year-long events and want to include your activities in our master calendar.

  • ROSE MOFFORD Honored As a Historymaker 1999
    Arizona HistorymakersJ Oral History Transcript Historical League, Inc. 8 2018 ROSE MOFFORD 1922 - 2016 Honored as a Historymaker 1999 Arizona’s First Woman Governor The following is an oral history interview with Rose Mofford (RM) conducted by Reba Wells Grandrud (RG) for Historical League, Inc. on June 5, 1998, in the home of Pat Mason, chairman of the 1999 Historymakers Gala 5, Phoenix, Arizona. Transcripts for website edited by members of Historical League, Inc. Original tapes are in the collection of the Arizona Heritage Center Archives, an Historical Society Museum, Tempe, Arizona. RG: Governor Mofford has been named a 1999 Historymaker by the Historical League of the Central Arizona Division of Arizona Historical Society. Governor Mofford, as you know, the Central Arizona Division of the Historical Society has a great collection of oral history tapes, transcripts, and memorabilia that was gathered when we were celebrating the United States bicentennial. And at that time, CAD, or Central Arizona Division, was the Phoenix Historical Society. It was housed in the Shackelford House at 1 242 North Central. In 1 976, February, you were interviewed by Karin Ullmann. And, of course, the focus at that time was on the Phoenix area and, mostly, your long time service with Arizona state government. I'd like to supplement that interview with some of your thoughts on what has happened in the 20 years since that interview. But, first, could we start with some background on you as a native of Arizona. Now, we all know that you were born in Globe, county seat of Gila County, but maybe you could tell us your name, birth date, something about your parents, what brought them to Arizona, that kind of thing.

  • 100 Years of Public Service a Message from Our Secretary of State
    100 Years of Public Service A Message From Our Secretary of State For more than one hundred years, the Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records has dedicated itself to preserving our state’s rich history and providing continued public access to the historical documents that tell the story of our magnificent state. On March 24, 2015 we celebrate the Centennial Anniversary of the official creation of the Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records as an institution of the state. Few cultural institutions have the type of impact community libraries have on our society. With more than twenty-five million visits to more than two hundred libraries in Arizona each year, libraries are a critical thread in the fabric that forms our communities. Libraries make information and entertainment available to the masses whether it be the printed word or online access still unavailable to many in our state. Today, libraries are growing services to serve as job hubs for those seeking employment and as technology centers making advancements such as 3D printers accessible to everyone. In an era of unpreceded technological advancement, the State Library, Archives and Public Records division’s mission is more important than ever before. If we are to understand the present to plan for the future, we must have access to the past. Please enjoy this wonderful publication commemorating our one hundred years of public service! Michele Reagan, Secretary of State A Message From Our Secretary of State 100 Years of Public Service Published by the Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records, a Division of the Secretary of State, to commemorate the establishment of the State Library at the Arizona State Capitol by the Legislature in March 1915.
