Hunter to Lead The American Archivist


CHICAGO-The Society of American Archivists is pleased to announce that
Gregory S. Hunter, PhD, CA, CRM, has been appointed Editor of The
American Archivist and will serve a three-year term beginning January
2012. Established in 1938 and published semi-annually, The American
Archivist is the premier professional journal for archivists. With
more than 6,600 readers, it enjoys the largest circulation of any
English-language archives periodical. Hunter will succeed Mary Jo
Pugh, who is stepping down after six years in the post.

"Greg Hunter possesses the skills and talents that we were looking for
in the next editor of The American Archivist," said SAA President and
Search Committee Chair Helen Tibbo. "His vision for the journal,
together with his demonstrated ability to collaborate and motivate
teams, will be critically important as we build on Mary Jo Pugh's many
accomplishments."

Hunter is Director of the Doctor of Philosophy in Information Studies
program at Long Island University's Palmer School of Library and
Information Science, where he also serves as Professor and Director of
the Certificate in Archives and Records Management program.

Hunter has earned distinction as an educator, consultant, editor, and
author. Named a Fellow of SAA in 2004, he has published widely in the
professional literature. He received the SAA Preservation Publication
Award in 2001 for Preserving Digital Information and the 2004 Waldo
Gifford Leland Award for writing of superior excellence for Developing
and Maintaining Practical Archives, Second Edition. His professional
background includes stints with the Chase Manhattan Archives, the
United Negro College Fund archival programs, and the ITT
Corporation. From 2004 to 2009, he served as principal archivist and
records manager on the team that designed and built the Electronic
Records Archives for the National Archives and Records Administration.

"I am honored that the SAA Council selected me as the next editor of
The American Archivist," Hunter said. "Mary Jo Pugh is leaving the
journal in excellent shape. I look forward to building upon her
success and working with SAA members to explore additional ways that
the journal can advance the archival profession."  Hunter has served
in a variety of leadership capacities. He was the founding president
of the Academy of Certified Archivists in 1989, received two
fellowships from the Bentley Historical Library to work with teams
trying to define the relationship between archivists and historians,
and served as editor of the book series The Archivist's and Records
Manager's Bookshelf for Neal-Schumann Publishers. He holds a MA and
PhD in American history from New York University and a BA in history
from St. John's University.

Hunter's selection as Editor of The American Archivist by the SAA
Council at its May 24-26, 2011, meeting in Chicago completes a
five-month process that included broad distribution of a call for
applicants.

The Society of American Archivists is a Chicago-based national
professional organization representing more than 6,000 individual and
institutional members. Founded in 1936, its mission is to serve the
education and information needs of its members and to provide
leadership to ensure the identification, preservation, and use of the
nation's historical record.
