Reflecting On the Life and Career of 1960s Interior Secretary Stewart Udall
We’re saddened to report the loss of Stewart Udall, who died over the weekend at the age of 90. Mr. Udall served as Secretary of the Interior during the Kennedy and Johnson administrations and was instrumental in the passage of the 1964 Wilderness Act and dozens of National Parks and Monuments. Also, if you love the Grand Canyon, thank him: he kept it from being dammed in the 1960s.
