Dear Ms. K.:

 

The National Archives and Records Administration-Pacific Alaska Region (Anchorage) do not hold records of the Food and Drug Administration. For information on the Food and Drug Administration's history, you may contact the agency at 301-443-1544. Tell them why you are calling and perhaps they will be able to point you to a history of the agency or connect you to an agency historian.

 

You might also want to contact the National Archives at College Park (email: www.nara.gov.), to inquire about the records of the Food and Drug Administration in relation to your needs.

 

Once again, if I can be of further assistance, please contact me.

Hello. My grandfather was Head of the FDA at the time Alaska became a state. Would you have information on this? Thank you.
