“We are looking for nominees with strong Arkansas ties who have enjoyed a long, illustrious career in insurance that has exemplified innovation, social responsibility, leadership and excellence,” said Cynthia Burleson, director of the Center for Insurance and Risk Management in the University of Central Arkansas College of Business. “Those who have made broad, encompassing contributions to advance the role of insurance in society and who have significantly impacted the lives of many Arkansans.”

The Arkansas Insurance Hall of Fame was created to recognize leaders of the insurance industry in Arkansas and to remind the public of the important role insurance plays in securing the well-being of both individuals and businesses, according to the group. The Hall of Fame is housed in the UCA College of Business, which offers the only insurance and risk management program in the state.
