New York State Modern Political Archive

Elected officials, interest groups, and activists from New York State.
The New York State Modern Political Archive (NYSMPA) was established in 1982 to document the work of individuals and private interest groups concerned with New York State public policy issues in the 20th century. Originally named the Archives of Public Affairs and Policy, the NYSMPA collects, preserves, and facilitates access to primary sources pertaining to New York State public affairs and policy, and now includes the personal papers of members of the gubernatorial administrations of Nelson A. Rockefeller; papers of former New York Congressional members and elected officials who served in New York State Legislature; and the official records and papers of numerous private groups, professional associations, individuals, public-sector labor unions, community groups, and other organizations concerned with Empire State public-policy issues.

Transcriptions of recorded interviews in Series 1. The interviews cover events and personalities from the years prior to UUP's creation in 1973 through the first years of the administration of its fourth president, John M. Reilly, who was president when the interviews were conducted in 1990. Interviewees include individuals who served as president of UUP, as members of UUP's Executive Board, as officers of UUP, or who were otherwise active in UUP's creation and early history. Some individual names are spelled irregularly from transcript to transcript. Consult the records of United University Professions, particularly publications such as The Voice for the correct spelling of individual names. The researcher should note that not all individuals in this series participated in a formal interview.
