Summary

Dr. Albert E. Heustis was Michigan State Health Commissioner in 1961. The June 1961 Beaver Beacon identifies him as overseeing publicity for Beaver Island’s doctor-recruitment appeal.

Evidence and limits

Contemporaneous state and federal public-health publications independently confirm his name, M.D. degree, and office. They do not provide verified birth or death information, so no lifespan is asserted.
