ca. 1972. Portrait of Governor Daniel J. Evans. Copy print ordered by Glen Graves Advertising in October, 1972. Seattle-born Daniel J. Evans was Washington State's first governor to serve three consecutive terms of office from 1965-77. He was the keynote speaker at the Republican National Convention in 1968, following in the footsteps of the last Republican governor before him, Arthur B. Langlie, who delivered the keynote address in 1956. Following his terms as governor, Mr. Evans was the president of Evergreen State College before returning to politics as U.S. Senator in 1983. In 1989, he was selected as a Fellow for the Institute of Politics at the Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University. For the next few years, while becoming chairman of Daniel J. Evans Associates, he appeared as a political analyst for KIRO-TV in Seattle. Mr. Evans is currently a regent for the University of Washington; he was reappointed by Governor Gary Locke for a term expiring in 2005. The university's graduate school of public affairs, in his honor, was renamed the Daniel J. Evans School of Public Affairs in March, 1999. ALBUM 10.
