Steve Murray has been elected to be the director of the Alabama Department of Archives and History.
Murray has been assistant director of the department since 2006 and will become the sixth director in the archive’s 111-year history.
The Board of Trustees of the department elected Murray to be the new director Wednesday after a three-month nationwide search for a new director. Murray replaces Ed Bridges, who is retiring Sept. 30 after spending 30 years as director of the archives.
