Henry Nominates Hunter For School Land Post

Governor Henry today nominated former legislator and Secretary of State Mike Hunter to serve as the new secretary and executive director of the School Land Office.

If approved by the Commissioners of the Land Office, Hunter will replace Clifton Scott. Scott, former State Auditor and Inspector, announced his retirement earlier this year.

Hunter served in the House and as general counsel for the Corporation Commission. He served as Secretary of State under former Governor Frank Keating. Hunter has spent the last seven years as executive vice president and chief operating officer of the American Council of Life Insurers, continuing to work with Keating, who heads the organization.
