James Robert "Jim" Thompson Jr. (1936-2020) was the 37th and longest
serving Governor of Illinois, holding office from 1977 to 1991. He also served
as a member of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the
United States, more commonly known as the 9/11 Commission. Before he
served as Governor, he garnered praise for his role as a federal prosecutor
who cracked down on government corruption in Illinois. He obtained
convictions of numerous government employees, including former Governor
Otto Kerner Jr., Chicago Alderman Thomas E. Keane, Cook County Clerk
Matt Danaher, and many others. Thankfully, his office was bipartisan,
prosecuting Democrats and Republicans alike. Fine condition.
