Biographical History
Woodrow Johansen (1913-1991) was born and raised in Eyak, Alaska. Armed with degrees in civil engineering from the University of Alaska and the University of Illinois, he taught at the University of Alaska before embarking on a career with the Alaska Road Commission and Alaska Department of Transportation. Many of the major roads in Fairbanks and Interior Alaska grew from his planning efforts as district engineer for the region in the early 1960s. The Johansen Expressway in Fairbanks was named for him in 1988. (From obituary, Fairbanks Daily News-Miner, 16 January 1991, p. 3.)
