Abstract:

Governor Michael Easley grew up on a Nash County tobacco farm in the 1950s and 1960s, where hunting and fishing was a family tradition. In this interview, Easley, who entered office in 2001, discusses how his sporting background helps to shape his thinking on conservation of the state's natural resources and public lands.
