Contents: |
Eunice Lastinger Mixon was born in Tifton, Georgia, in 1931 to a family of farmers. She married Albert Mixon in 1948, and
beginning in 1956 she attended the University of Georgia, attaining a master's degree and specialist degree in education.
She taught eighth-grade science, and high school biology, chemistry and physics for thirty years in the Tift County School
System, and was an instructor at the Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College. In 1974, gubernatorial candidate George Busbee,
acquainted with Mixon through his advocacy for teachers in the legislature, appointed her as his Tift County campaign chairman,
and her success at grassroots organizing gained her a reputation as a valuable political ally in South Georgia. Since then
she has campaigned for President Bill Clinton, Senator Sam Nunn, Congressmen Charles Hatcher and Roy Rowland, and Georgia
Commissioner of Agriculture Tommy Irvin. She served as a delegate to the 1988 and 1992 National Democratic Conventions, and
as a member of the Georgia Democratic Executive Committee. The papers document Mixon's involvement with the state and national
Democratic Parties, her appointment to several state boards and commissions, and community activities in Tifton, Georgia.
