Archival Resources in Wisconsin: Descriptive Finding Aids

Container	Title
	Subseries: Cherkasky, William Scope and Content Note: Bill Cherkasky was legislative director (1967-1969) and an administrative assistant (1971-1974) and was responsible for legislation related to many topics. He was also responsible for office and staff administration. As such, Cherkasky's files are organized by his position and his materials are dispersed throughout the collection. Present in this subseries are “early” files from his time as legislative director and “later” files from his time as administrative assistant. The earlier files relate mainly to tax issues. The later files contain background on Nelson's legislation and his interests. The files are more referential containing background material, copies of speeches and statements, press releases, and miscellaneous correspondence. These later files, subject and correspondence, are remnants of some larger filing system which is not present here in its totality. Cherkasky's office management files are within the OFFICE MANAGEMENT series; he also maintained Nelson's drug hearings files (found with the COMMITTEE FILES) and his financial records which form a separate series.
