We were saddened to hear of the passing of Tom Hayden. This well-known activist and lawmaker had Ann Arbor ties from his time at the University of Michigan and his involvement in the founding of the Students for a Democratic Society.

Recently, Tom Hayden appeared at the Ann Arbor District Library in 2014 to discuss the battle against climate change. A video recording of that event can be found here.

AADL’s Old News has several articles from the Ann Arbor News archives that mention or feature Tom Hayden, including this one from 1969 about an anti-Vietnam War protest and parade he was involved in.
