The Georgia House of Representatives Communications Office, previously known as the Georgia House Public Information Office,
provides media credentials and workspace for journalists who cover the Georgia House of Representatives. The Director of Media
Relations for House Communications, under the direction of the Director of Media Services, supervises the Communications staff
to facilitate the coverage by reporters of legislative activity. The staff provides bill texts and reports of pending legislation
and disseminates press releases and calendars of business to accredited reporters. In addition, the office maintains taped
excerpts from floor debates and online daily activity feeds. The majority of the collection consists of audio recordings (see
separate AV finding aid) documenting the regular and special sessions of the Georgia House of Representatives, as well as
some Senate proceedings, and photographs maintained by the House photographer. This collection includes biographical sketches
of legislators, legislative reports, speeches, research materials, press releases, slide show scripts, audiovisual materials

Contents: |
This collection documents the life of William H. (Bill) Burson (1928-1997) and the various positions he held under Senator
Herman Talmadge; Governors Carl Sanders, Lester Maddox, and Jimmy Carter; and Lieutenant Governor Zell Miller. Burson graduated
from the University of Georgia with a BA in Journalism in 1948 and served as a war correspondent in the Korean War. After
the war, Burson served as an aide to Senator Herman Talmadge and later to Governor Carl Sanders. In 1967, the newly elected
governor, Lester Maddox, appointed him to be director of the Georgia Department of Family and Children Services. Over the
next three years Burson fought a "War on Hunger" attempting to create food stamps programs across Georgia. Burson was elected
as State Treasurer in 1970 and campaigned for the U.S. Senate in 1972. After losing the senatorial campaign, Burson worked
as a lobbyist for business interests in the Southeast. In 1975, he became Zell Miller's administrative and special assistant,
a position he held until his retirement in 1991. The collection is comprised primarily of twenty-five scrapbooks that detail
Burson's life and career from 1933 to 1991. Also included are photographs, editorial cartoons, books, certificates, and plaques.
