This year’s speaker is Phil Talmadge, who served in the Washington State Senate from 1979 to 1995 and on the Washington Supreme Court from 1995 to 2001. The title of his talk is “Reflections on the Legislature and the Supreme Court.”
The Guild’s annual award honoring a Pacific Northwest historian will be given to Junius Rochester. For decades Junius Rochester has actively contributed to history – especially Seattle history – in its most local aspects: neighborhoods, buildings, and institutions. Author of numerous books and articles, he lectures authoritatively on various topics. An independent, self-supporting historian, member of the Pacific Northwest Historians Guild since its inception and an early president, and officer in many other community organizations, he richly deserves the Guild’s highest honor.
