The Historical League will announce its latest group of Historymakers on Feb. 19 at the Arizona Heritage Center at Papago Park in Tempe.
As part of Arizona’s Statehood Day celebration, the Historical League will reveal the names of seven individuals and one couple who will join a prestigious list of Historymakers, a press release explained.
It detailed that those recognized are Arizonans who have made lasting contributions to society and the growth of Arizona in a number of areas like community outreach, medicine, agriculture and scientific research.
Diana Smith, the Historymakers Recognition Chairman, said in the release that it’s a tremendous honor to name this year’s Historymakes and recognize them for their accomplishments, contributions, service and leadership.
“Our 2025 recipients share a common thread,” Smith stated. “They’re all dedicated to making substantial, positive impacts on the state and their surrounding communities.”
Since 1992, The Historical League, Inc., has recognized over 90 of Arizona’s most noteworthy and impactful individuals through its Arizona Historymakers Recognition Program, according to the release. The recognition program is held every other year.
Past recipients have included Sandra Day O’Connor, Navajo Code Talkers, Barbara Barrett, Dr. Robert Spetzler, Barry Goldwater and Dr. Warren Stewart.
Additional information announcing the new 2025 Historymakers will be available after Feb. 19 on the Historical League’s website at www.historicalleague.org.
