Lauren Lyons

Chartering Coordinator, Assistant to the State Historian
518-486-3843

As the Chartering Coordinator and the Assistant to the State Historian I interact with municipal historians, museums and cultural organizations throughout the state, review museum charter applications, and complete research for projects within the Office of State History.

I previously worked as a Legislative Assistant for the New York State Senate. I graduated from the University at Albany with a degree in history and am currently enrolled in the Public History MA program. My current research is focused on architecture and iconography in New York State following the American Revolution.
