Biographical/Historical:     Rick Scott was elected Florida's 45th Governor in November 2010, running on a platform of increasing private-sector employment and reducing the size and cost of government. Scott was re-elected to a second term in November 2014.

    Rick Scott was born on December 1, 1952 in Bloomington, Illinois and raised in Kansas City, Missouri. Scott enlisted in the Navy after high school and a year of community college. After completing over two years of Navy service, Scott earned a bachelor's degree in business administration from the University of Missouri-Kansas City, then a law degree from Southern Methodist University.

    Scott practiced corporate law in Dallas, specializing in health care mergers and acquisitions. In 1987 he established Columbia Hospital Corporation. He later acquired Hospital Corporation of America and merged the businesses in 1989 to form Columbia/HCA. After leaving Columbia/HCA in 1997, Scott bought and sold a number of companies. In 2001 he co-founded Solantic Corporation, a network of urgent care centers.

Summary:     The series contains digital photographs and daily schedules documenting activities and events during the Scott Administration. The records document press conferences; attendance at conferences, fundraisers, and dinners; bill signings; events held at the Governor's Mansion; meetings with elected officials, public figures and Florida citizens; international travel; and formal portraits.

    Notable events documented by the records include a trade mission to Brazil; former Governor Claude Kirk lying in state at the Historic Capitol and his memorial; a press conference regarding hazing at Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University; and the lieutenant governor's attendance at the Task Force for Citizen Safety Meeting in regards to Trayvon Martin. The photographs were taken by Eric Tournay, the state photographer, and Stacy Ferris.
