The Attorney General is appointed by the governor and confirmed by the Alaska Legislature.
The position has existed since the early days of the Territory of Alaska, though it was an elected rather than an appointed position prior to statehood.
[1] In the earliest days of the Alaska Territory, the Territorial Counsel served as the de facto attorney general.
Only one person, John H. Cobb, served in this position.
