Clifton Alexander "Chip" Woodrum III (July 23, 1938 – February 19, 2013) was a Virginia lawyer and politician.
He modernized Virginia's Freedom of Information Act in the 1990s, and also helped construct programs to rehabilitate offenders, as well as to enable low income Virginians to attend college.
He often faced no opponent when re-elected, but soundly defeated Republican Newell R. Falkinburg in 1995 and Independent A.R.
After the Republican party took control of the House of Delegates in 2000, he lost his seat on the Appropriations committee and was redistricted into the same district as his ally, former majority leader Richard Cranwell (who retired, so Woodrum faced no challenger in the primary nor general election).
[7] The erudite and witty Woodrum then was appointed to the board of trustees of the Library of Virginia, where he served beginning in 2004 and as chair in 2011 and 2012.
