Walter A. Zelman, after earning his doctorate in political science at the University of California, Los Angeles, in 1971, and teaching at several southern California higher education institutions, became field director (1977) and executive director (1978) of California Common Cause. He continued to hold the latter position at the time of this oral history interview.
