Part 2 (M2008-106, Audio 1682A/18-21): Additions, 1946-2000
4.0 c.f. (2 record center cartons, 2 archives boxes, 2 card files boxes, and 1 floppy disk box), 4 cassettes, and 19 photographs
: Papers of Richard J. (Rick) Phelps, 1946-2000. The collection documents Phelps' role in revising the Wisconsin Children's Code and his work as head of the Office of the Wisconsin State Public Defender (1983-1988). The primary focus of the collection is on Phelps' work as Dane County Executive (1988-1997) and his campaign for Congress (1998). Campaign information, press clippings, mailing lists, and correspondence are included in the section on Dane County Executive. The campaign for Congress focuses on lists of supporters, special fundraising events, polling information, and press releases. Also included in the collection are Phelps' daily schedules which span 1975-1997. Most of the computer disks relate to Phelps' campaign for Congress. The photos are of Phelps' family, his work as county executive, the Children's Code, and his congressional campaign. The videocassette is of the special program, “Behind the Walls of Waupun,” which aired on WISN-TV in 1987. Phelps, the State Public Defender at the time, served on a panel of experts that discussed Wisconsin's prison system.
