2 Thyra Thomson It is a privilege to dedicate the 2014 Wyoming State Government Directory to the first woman elected Secretary of State in Wyoming, Thyra Thomson. As the second highest state elected official, she served 24 years which is the longest tenure of any statewide elected official in Wyoming history. Thyra Thomson was a woman who was both a part of her time and ahead of her time. While at the University of Wyoming, she met and married her husband, Keith Thomson, and graduated cum laude with a BA Degree in She received a President s citation for her war work at home while her husband was serving in WWII. When her husband ran and won the first of his three terms to the U.S. House of Representatives, Mrs. Thomson organized his campaign. In Washington DC, she informed Wyomingites about the activities in the nation s capitol with a weekly column, Watching Washington. Although tragedy struck and her husband suddenly died at age 41, a month before taking the oath for his first term as U.S. Senator, she had the tenacity to carry on. Thyra Thomson returned to Wyoming with her three sons and continued her public service. In 1962 Thyra became Wyoming s 16 th Secretary of State. Among her many honors, she was named an International Woman of Distinction, a UW Distinguished Alumni, and a Woman of Achievement by Wyoming Press Women. During her tenure as Secretary of State, Thyra Thomson led efforts for equal pay for women and recognition of the comparable worth of women s jobs. She was an advocate for adequate daycare at affordable prices; was noted for regulation on the sale of new issues of securities so that Wyoming investors had a fair balance between risk and reward; traveled to foreign countries (such as Taiwan, Republic of China, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Egypt) to promote Wyoming products and business and to secure overseas scholarships for Wyoming high school seniors. Thyra Thomson held national offices including President of the North American Securities Administrators and Vice President of the National Conference of Lieutenant Governors. She also sat on several international, state and local committees. Thyra Thomson was an elegant, well spoken stateswoman. As an elected official she handled her office with integrity, professionalism and warmth. She was an inspiration to generations of women who looked to her example of how to be a woman in the public eye. Wyoming is the better because of her many years of leadership.

Every color is a different piece and type of stone, down to the iris of the eye of the people shown.
