Linda Cooper

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linda Cooper was the seven-term Republican Town Supervisor in the town of Yorktown, New York from 1995 to 2007. She is an amateur historian, author of Yorktown (NY) in the Images of America book series, and a former journalist.

In September of 2007, Coopers surprised many by resigning before the end of her term, in order to become the City Manager of Ossining, New York. She was replaced temporarily by town clerk Alice Roker, the ex-wife of television weatherman Al Roker, until Democrat Donald Peters was elected to the post in November 2007.
