Book excerpt: It is important to maintain a history and archival record of the art education professional associations, state and national. Those who have gone before should be honored, since they struggled to build the National Art Education Association into the largest association of its kind in the world. And a history of its professional development, and in a way of art education itself, helps prepare for the challenges of the future.

Michael); (2) "The Development of the NAEA Constitution" (Ivan E. Johnson); (3) "A National Association: Our Growth, Organizational Development, and Special Projects" (Charles M.
