| The Political Papers
Collection consists of the papers of Congressmen, Governors and
individuals who participated in the political life of the State
of Colorado and the United States Government. Many of the collections
have a special emphasis on issues important to Colorado and the
West, such as water rights and natural resources.
Among the collections are those of several graduates
of the University of Denver Law School, i.e. Wayne N. Aspinall (U.S.
Representative 1948-1973), John A. Love (Colorado Governor 1963-1973),
James D. (Mike) McKevitt (U. S. Representative 1971-1973), and Byron
Giles Rogers (U.S. Representative 1951-1971). Other collections
include Peter H. Dominick (U. S. Senator 1963-1975), Daniel Schaefer
(U. S. Representative 1983-1999) and Governor Edwin C. Johnson's
papers covering his years as a Commissioner on the Upper Colorado
River Commission (1957-1969). The papers accumulated by former University
of Denver Chancellor Maurice Mitchell as a member of the U. S. Commission
on Civil Rights from 1968 to 1974 will be made available as soon
as an inventory is available.
