"Atiyeh" Author Dr James Moore Talk & Book Signing Free Event

Governor Vic Atiyeh, who led Oregon government from 1979-87, has sometimes been overshadowed by other major figures of the era in Oregon, such as Tom McCall and Mark Hatfield. But Atiyeh played a large and decisive role in transforming Oregon from its historical roots into the future-facing state it has become. This thoroughly researched biography fills in a critical part of the Oregon story - and shows in detail how a strong public executive did his work.
