Oklahoma Voices: Former Governor George Nigh on Oklahoma’s Past and Future (Jun 24, 2007)
Former four-term OK Governor George Nigh was honored as “Oklahoma’s Oldest Futurist” at the State Chamber’s annual meeting last Tuesday at the Skirvin Hotel in Oklahoma City. In this Centennial year, Nigh was invited to share with business leaders his memories of the state’s unique history and his perspective on where to go from here. While calling Oklahoma’s first century “an era of great progress and achievement,” he said he believes the best is yet to come. We listen back to an edited version of his remarks and also hear from historian and Nigh biographer Bob Burke.
