Oral History Number: 396-029 Interviewee: Antoinette Fraser Rosell Interviewer: Bob Brown Date of Interview: July 6, 2005 Project: Bob Brown Oral History Collection Bob Brown: Okay we're interviewing Antoinette Rosell. Toni Rosell was elected first to the Montana House of Representatives in 1956 and served in both the Montana House and Senate. I believe you were the only woman in the '57 session. Antoinette Rosell: Fifty-seven, and I was not married then, so I was Antoinette Fraser. BB: You were Antoinette Fraser then. So Toni, what motivated you to run for the legislature? AR: To be honest with you, I always wanted to be...I read about Teddy Roosevelt for one thing. I was very inspired by him. I gave a speech when I was a junior in high school about him. I thought, "Wow that sounds like a pretty neat deal." He was out for the right, fair and all that kind of legislation. So when I got back to Billings and was here for a while and I noted that there were no women running on the Republican slate. I thought, "Well gee, maybe I'll try." So I started running really in 1954 when I first got back. I think it was '54. Of course I didn't know the ropes then.

  • Montana Historical Society Press Release— Lee Metcalf Photograph and Film Collections CLIR Grant Project
    Montana Historical Society Press Release— Lee Metcalf Photograph and Film Collections CLIR Grant Project Montana Historical Society announces the “Lee Metcalf Photograph and Film Collections Project” The Montana Historical Society Research Center is excited to announce the receipt of a two-year private grant from the Council on Library and Information Resources (CLIR) for a project to arrange, preserve, and describe the photographs and films of the former U.S. Senator from Montana, Lee Metcalf. The grant’s funding has provided for the hiring of a full-time project archivist, Matthew M. Peek, who will work for the duration of the project in the MHS Research Center’s Photograph Archives under the direction of its manager, Lory Morrow. The project began in April 2013, and will run through the end of March 2015. Although the MHS Research Center has processed and made available the Lee Metcalf Papers (MC 172), the senator’s photographs and films came to MHS in several deposits over the past thirty years, largely without description or organization. Most of the photographs and films were housed in and used by Metcalf’s office staff during his time in the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate. A substantial number of individuals and congressmen seen in Metcalf’s photographs are unidentified, inhibiting the collection’s usefulness to the public at present. The objectives of this project will be to unite all of Metcalf’s photographs from the various donations in one photograph collection to allow for better access, as well as to re-house all the photographs in appropriate archival enclosures.
