RUSSELL WILSON
Russell L. Wilson and Governor and Senator Hughes were close friends for many years. “He was like a brother to me,” Wilson said. Their families remained friends throughout Hughes life.
In 1962 when Hughes was governor, he appointed Wilson to the Iowa State Board of Control that administered thirteen state institutions including prisons, training schools for youth, mental hospitals, and several residential institutions. In the four years that Wilson served on that board he accompanied Hughes on several state and political trips and administered several special projects for the Governor including the Iowa Comprehensive Alcoholism Project.
Wilson, a retired clergyman, has co-authored two additional books and has published many articles. His personal contact with Hughes provides many insights into Hughes’ career and life. He also shares many stories about Hughes that have never been published.
