Grenander Department of Special Collections and Archives, University Libraries, University at Albany, State University of New York. ^ Return to Table of Contents Biographical History Daniel Evan Button was a U.S. Representative from New York. Button was born in Dunkirk, Chautauqua County, NY on November 1, 1917. He graduated from Wilmington High School (Delaware) in 1933, received his A.B. from the University of Delaware (Newark, DE) in 1938, and his M.A. from Columbia University in 1939. Button was an author and journalist who worked at newspapers in Wilmington, with the Associated Press in New York City (1939-1947) and as executive editor of the Albany Times-Union (1960-1966). He served as the assistant to the president of the State University of New York (1952-1958) as well as on the staffs of the University of Delaware and Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Button was elected in 1966 as a Republican in the 29th district, which includes Albany and Schenectady counties, as well as part of Rensselaer County. At this time, the 29th district's population was approximately 462,338 citizens. Button was part of the 90th and the subsequent Congress (January 3, - Page 3- Button, Daniel Evan; Papers apap231 1967-January 3, 1971), but was an unsuccessful candidate for reelection in 1970. While serving as a U.S. Representative, Button was on the Merchant Marine and Fisheries, and Post Office and Civil Services Committees. While in office, he was critical of the war in Vietnam. Button wrote two books, Lindsay, A Man for Tomorrow (1965) and Take City Hall (2003). He also was editor for Science Digest from 1976 to 1980. Button was the president of the board of directors of the Clinton Square Neighborhood House and Citizens Committee for Albany Public Schools as well as for the Arthritis Foundation (1971-1975). He was director of the Council of Community Services, a trustee of the Mohawk-Hudson Council on Educational Television, and active on the boards of the World Affairs Council, as well as the American Association for the United Nations, Albany Fair Housing Committee, the Albany YWCA, and Citizens Planning Committee. In addition, Button was co-moderator for the television program, "Speak for Yourself." Button died of pneumonia on May 7, 2009 at age 91 and is buried in Albany Rural Cemetery in Menands, New York. ^ Return to Table of Contents Scope and Contents This collection documents the political life of Daniel Evan Button. This collection represents Button's administrative actions during his two terms as a U.S. Representative: his contributions to legislation, files he received concerning domestic concerns and foreign relations, a sizable amount of correspondence he received from Albany residents, military case files for every military branch, as well as press releases and teleprompter papers for televised events. Button served on the Merchant Marine and Fisheries Committee as well as the Post Office and Civil Services Commission. Materials related to these assignments are dispersed throughout the collection, primarily in subject files and subject correspondence. Button also sponsored several bills pertaining to these two committees. While in office, Joseph or "Joe" Parillo was Button's personal assistant in his Schenectady office. Also, Button had at least two secretaries who assisted him with his correspondence and case files. There are a number of records that contain notes regarding cases from these personnel. Please note there is no material concerning Button's two books in this collection. There is also no material about his work at Times-Union, University at Albany, or his contributions to different societies. The entirety of this collection is from his time as U.S. Representative. ^ Return to Table of Contents - Page 4- Button, Daniel Evan; Papers apap231 Arrangement of the Collection The collection is organized into the following series: 1 Series 1 - HR, Legislation and Bills, 1964-1971, Undated 2 Series 2 - Subject Files, 1962-1971, Undated 3 Series 3 - Subject Correspondence, 1966-1970, Undated 4 Series 4 - Correspondence, 1967-1970 5 Series 5 - Case Files, 1965-1971, Undated 6 Series 6 - Communication, 1965-1970, Undated Series 1, 2, 3, and 6 are arranged alphabetically.

Innocent but Incarcerated: Reforming Oklahoma’s Criminal Pretrial Procedures to Combat Discrimination Against Indigent Defendants Introduction Imagine a woman of thirty-two years of age. She works hard to make ends meet as a single mom, working two jobs and raising her two school- aged children. But she can be too trusting and finds herself arrested for receiving stolen property.1 Unable to post $500 cash bond,2 let alone hire a private attorney, she sits in the local jail while her case trudges through the district court’s backlogged criminal docket. She loses both of her jobs and, adding insult to injury, accrues a daily jail fee that she would unmistakably prefer to avoid—if only she could afford to leave. She applies for free representation through her state’s contract attorney system and is declared indigent, but she faces a predicament once her family manages to scrape together enough money to secure her pretrial release.

Johnson presidency is unique in its collection of recordings of the chief executive’s activities. In the 1960s, the White House Naval Photographic Unit (NPC) began producing films that highlighted special presidential trips, visits, and events. Commander Thomas Atkins produced these films for the NPC, starting in 1963 in the John F. Kennedy administration and continuing through the Johnson years. About 43 of the 70+ films are available for viewing on the Lyndon B. Johnson Library’s YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL853F6EAB74B64D1D . Hofstra University’s Peter S. Kalikow Center for the Study of the American Presidency has a full digitized set of the Atkins films, which are available for research in the Joan and Donald E. Axinn Library’s Special Collections room. In the summer of 2013, Ms. Nancy Lindemeyer (who, along with her husband, Robert Lindemeyer, served with Commander Atkins in the Navy) contacted Hofstra on behalf of the Atkins family to see if the Kalikow Center might be a suitable repository for the collection. Thanks to the generosity of the Atkins family and the cheerful, unstinting efforts of the Lindemeyers, the original 16 mm films were transferred to DVDs and became part of Hofstra’s holdings in 2015.
