Biographical Note
Dr. Jack Louis August Jr. (January 7, 1954 -- January 20, 2017) grew up in Lutherville,
Maryland, as the eldest of five children. As a boy, he was friends with the noted film
director John Waters, with whom he attended a private elementary school. An accomplished
athlete and scholar, Jack was a Central High graduate (1971) and a collegiate swimmer
and diver at Yale (1971-1975). He earned his master's from UA (1979) and his PhD from
the University of New Mexico (1985). August was named historian and director of
Institutional Advancement at the Arizona Capitol Museum in early 2016, shortly before
his death.
His research and scholarship focused on regional and environmental history of the
southwest and Arizona. As a Pulitzer Prize-nominated author, he authored ten books and
numerous articles on a variety of topics relating to the American West.
He appeared on numerous television and radio programs, including "Horizon," "Arizona
Illustrated," the KAET/PBS documentary "Arizona Memories from the 1960s," the HBO
documentary "Barry Goldwater: Mr. Conservative," and National Public Radio features,
including "All Things Considered" with Robert Siegel. He was a frequent contributor to
newspapers, magazines, and historical journals including the Arizona Republic, Arizona
Highways, Phoenix Magazine, Journal of Arizona History, Pacific Historical Review,
Western Historical Quarterly, and many others. He also wrote a popular monthly column,
"Around Arizona History" which carries the tagline "You need your food, you need your
water, and you need your history" for the Arizona Food Industry Magazine.
Dr. August taught classes at both the undergraduate and graduate level as well as
authored many articles and books on well-known figures in Arizona's history. Some of his
most popular works include Vision in the Desert: Carl Hayden and Hydropolitics in the
American Southwest (Ft. Worth: Texas Christian University Press, 1999); Senator Dennis
DeConcini: From the Center of the Aisle (Tucson: University of Arizona Press, 2006); and
co-authored with former three-term US Senator from Arizona, Dennis DeConcini, Dividing
Western Waters: Mark Wilmer and Arizona v California (Ft. Worth: Texas Christian
University Press, 2009). He also co-authored with Beth Murfee, Play by Play: Phoenix and
the Buildings of the Herberger Theater (Ft. Worth: Texas Christian University Press,
2010). August also completed a comprehensive one-volume work entitled Norton Trilogy: A
History of Water and Agribusiness in the American Southwest. Many of his additional
articles and works focused on Carl Hayden and his water politics.
August served as Executive Director of the Barry Goldwater Center for the Southwest, a
non-profit and non-partisan 501 c3 corporation dedicated to the collection,
preservation, and dissemination of the history and culture of the Arizona and Southwest
(also known as the Arizona Historical Foundation; the Foundation became defunct in June
2012 and its archival collections were transferred to the Arizona Historical Society at
Papago Park). He also worked with Snell and Wilmer LLC as a Visiting Scholar in Legal
History as well as serving as a litigation consultant/expert witness for Resolution
Copper Company LLC, a division of Rio Tinto Limited in London, England.
Previously a historian in Northern Arizona University's Statewide Programs, he taught
courses in Western Water Policy and the New American Est for the Master's in Liberal
Studies Program and undergraduate history courses focusing on the American Environment,
American West, Far Southwest, and Arizona, via interactive instructional television and
satellite cable for Northern Arizona University. He is a former Fulbright Scholar,
National Endowment for the Humanities Research Fellow, and Pulitzer Prize nominee in the
history category for 2000. He has served as historian and expert witness in the Natural
Resources Section of the Arizona Attorney General's Office where his work focused on
Indian versus non-Indian water issues and state trust lands.
Jack August passed away in 2017 after a sudden illness at age 63. At the time of his
passing, he was working as the state historian and the director of Institutional
Advancement at the Arizona Capitol Museum. He is survived by his wife, Kathy Flower

This subseries includes research files on Chilton. The Chilton family arrived
in Arizona in 1888 with several hundred cattle in tow, setting up a ranch near
Livingston, near current Roosevelt Lake. Jim Chilton would later grow up on the
Arizona ranches and graduates from Camp Verde High School. He received three
degrees (BS, MS, MA) from Arizona State University. He is known for his work
with the Salt River Project as an economic analyst, and for joining Carl
Hayden's staff. However, his roots were in ranching and he became a full
partner at the Chilton Ranch in 1979, after the purchase of Diamond Bell Ranch.
Jim would purchase several more ranches, including the Flying X Ranch, and
settled in Arivaca. Jim would eventually be named "Rancher of the Year" in 2003
by the Arizona Cattle Growers Association, and the "True Grit" award in 2005 by
the same organization. Items are arranged alphabetically.
This subseries includes research files relating to Wade Church and the Church
V. Phoenix Newspapers case. Wade Church (1908-2002) served as the Attorney
General of Arizona (1959-1961) and is one of the few incumbent attorney
generals to have lost a general election in Arizona. Church graduated from UCLA
(1933) and Harvard Law School (1938) before becoming an assistant in the city
attorney's office in Phoenix. After giving an AFL-CIO speech in Flagstaff,
Arizona, the Arizona Republic published a piece that accused Church of
being a communist. Church went on to sue the paper, winning. The ruling was
challenged but upheld by the Arizona Supreme Court in 1968. In 1976, Church
received nearly $650,000 in libel damages. Materials are arranged

This subseries includes research materials related to Barry Goldwater. Barry
Goldwater (1909-1998) served in the US Air Force before becoming a five-term
Senator from Arizona, and would later become the Republican Party nominee for
President in 1964 (an election he did not win). He inspired American
conservative political movements, and likely helped pave the way for the
"Reagan Revolution." Goldwater was born in Phoenix where he helped manage his
family's department store. During World War II, he was a reserve in the Air
Force and trained as a pilot. Upon his return, he was elected to the Phoenix
City Council (1949) and soon after was elected to the US Senate (1952). He
rejected the New Deal legacy, supported the NAACP and the Civil Rights Act of
1957, and later the 24th Amendment. He supported environmental protections, gay
rights, abortion rights, the legalization of medical marijuana, and believed
all individuals, regardless of sexual orientation, should be able to
voluntarily serve in the military. He retired from the Senate in 1987.
Goldwater suffered a stroke in 1996 and was later diagnosed with Alzheimer's
disease. He passed away at his home in 1998 after complications from a stroke.

This subseries includes research materials related to Carl Hayden. Carl Hayden
began his political career as an Arizona Representative (eight terms) before
becoming a seven-term Senator (1927-1969). He set the record as the
longest-serving member of Congress long before his retirement. He was an
Democrat who supported legislation dealing with public lands, mining,
reclamation, water, and other projects like the federal highway system. He was
born in Hayden's Ferry in 1877 (renamed Tempe in 1878) to a merchant father
who, at one time, had also been a probate judge. The family owned several
businesses in the area, including a gristmill, general store, and agricultural
businesses. Carl Hayden would later serve in the US Army and US National Guard.
He studied economics, languages, history, and philosophy at Stanford University
and became interested in law school. During his junior year at Stanford, he
lost an election he ran in for student body president—the loss would forever
inspire his motto "always run scared" and turned out to be the only political
loss he would suffer in his career. In his early career, he was interested I
the Salt River Project and other water-related legislation in Arizona. He
worked closely with indigenous peoples of Arizona when it came to state water
rights. He would later champion the Central Arizona Project, which worked to
allot Colorado River water to several states. He also worked on the Boulder
Canyon Project, Grand Coulee Dam, Central Valley Project, Hayden-Cartwright
Act, Glen Canyon Dam, and others. After retiring from the Senate, Hayden
continued to give opinions on important legislation. He passed away after an
illness in 1972 and speakers at his memorial included Barry Goldwater and
Lyndon B. Johnson, amongst others. Materials are arranged alphabetically.

This subseries includes research materials related to Evan Mecham. Evan Mecham
(1924-2008) was a businessman before he became the Governor of Arizona. He
served as governor from 1987 until his impeachment on April 4, 1988. He was the
first Arizona governor to be impeached. As governor, he worked to open trade
with Taiwan (focusing on cotton exportation), drug abuse prevention programs,
and raising the speed limit on rural highways from 55 mph to 65 mph. However,
he also supported controversial changes like canceling paid Martin Luther King,
Jr. Day holidays for state employees under the rational that "Kind doesn't
deserve a holiday." He was also quoted as telling a group of Black community
leaders that they do not need more holidays but they instead, "What you folks
need are jobs" (see Steve L. Hawkins' "Inside the Wacky World of Evan Mecham,"
1988). This led to the cancellation of several events in Arizona as Black
entertainers decided to boycott the state. Famous rock band U2 even publicly
announced at a concert at ASU that they had donated to the impeachment campaign
against Mecham that was underway. In an attempt to right his comments, Mecham
offered a non-paid holiday on the third Sunday in January and, unfortunately,
this gained him no favor or forgiveness. Mecham continued to appoint
individuals with questionable morals and motives to positions (example: Alberto
Rodriguez, who was under investigation for murder at the time and flat earth
believer James Cooper, who was an "education advisor"). Mecham continued to say
racist things while in office, including defending the word "pickaninny" and
others, made several anti-Japanese statements, and also disparaged Jewish
peoples. He was impeached but continued to remain in the spotlight for other
blunders and questionable dealings. Mecham later suffered from Alzheimer's
disease, Parkinson's disease, and dementia. He passed away in 2008 and is
interred at the National Memorial Cemetery of Arizona, alongside his wife,
Florence, who passed away in 2012. Materials are arranged chronologically.
