George Cole interviews Dorothy Eck for the Media West Oral History Project. Eck served for 20 years in the Montana State Senate representing the Bozeman area. At 88, she remains active in the political life of the state. In 1972, Eck was instrumental in the calling of a Montana State Constitutional Convention. Following the convention in Helena, the new constitution was challenged in the courts and was passed by Montana voters. The interview was conducted June 5, 2012, and the recording is also available at Bozeman’s Pioneer Museum.
