The J. Sargeant Reynolds Conference
Friday, July 22, 2005
Richmond Marriott
For the past eight years, the University of Virginia Center for Politics and the Weldon Cooper Center for Public Service have examined the lives, administrations, and legacies of Virginia's recent former governors and legislative leaders. In a continuing effort to preserve an oral history of modern Virginia politics, this conference will bring together friends, family, political professionals, legislators, and the public to remember the life and political career of former Lieutenant Governor J. Sargeant Reynolds of Richmond, whose untimely death in 1971 altered the political landscape of Virginia, and perhaps the nation.
