People in Public Service: Sid McAlpin, Longtime Washington State Archivist
On February 5, 2020 Washington lost Sidney (“Sid”) McAlpin, who had led the Washington State Archives as State Archivist from 1963 to 1994. Mike Saunders broke the sad news to Secretary of State’s office employees in an email, writing that, “To those of us who worked in the State Archives in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, Sid was not only our leader, he was [a] friend and a mentor.”
