Loleta Fyan
Loleta Dawson Fyan (May 14, 1894 – March 15, 1990) was the first professional librarian for the State of Michigan (1941 to 1961).〔Bartlett, Bernadette (2001) ''Changing the face of the State Library and libraries statewide: Loleta Dawson Fyan'', 1941-1961, updated 3 February 2004, http://www.michigan.gov (cited 12 May 2009), para 1〕 Long before the invention of the Internet she believed that information should be available to all. ==Background== Albert Foster Dawson, who was a U.S. Representative from Iowa (March 4, 1905 – March 3, 1911)〔''Biographical Directory of the United States Congress, 1771 – Present'', “Albert Foster Dawson.”〕 was Fyan’s father. Dawson’s political activity may have been an influence on Fyan’s lifelong participation in a variety of organizations, including the American Library Association, the Michigan Library Association, the League of Women Voters and the Michigan Rural-Urban Women’s Conference. Because of her father's position, she was able to meet Presidents Theodore Roosevelt and William Howard Taft.〔DALB (2003), pg. 102〕 Fyan's mother was Phoebe R. (DeGroat) Dawson, whose family came to Iowa via New York and the Erie Canal. She married Clarence E. Fyan on July 17, 1926.〔DALB (2003), pg. 103〕
