“Lander’s Governor-Lester Hunt: Blackmail & Suicide-70 Years ago” May 28th 7pm
Lester Hunt was the only Wyoming Governor from Lander. A well loved figure who was responsible, among many other things, for the Wyoming bucking bronc license plate, he ran afoul of rabid anti-communist Joe McCarthy in the 50’s and tragically died. Senator Cale Case and author Roger McDaniel will talk about the life and legacy of Hunt.
