    Mill Valley Oral History Program A collaboration between the Mill Valley Historical Society and the Mill Valley Public Library David Getz An Oral History Interview Conducted by Debra Schwartz in 2020 © 2020 by the Mill Valley Public Library TITLE: Oral History of David Getz INTERVIEWER: Debra Schwartz DESCRIPTION: Transcript, 60 pages INTERVIEW DATE: January 9, 2020 In this oral history, musician and artist David Getz discusses his life and musical career. Born in New York City in 1940, David grew up in a Jewish family in Brooklyn. David recounts how an interest in Native American cultures originally brought him to the drums and tells the story of how he acquired his first drum kit at the age of 15. David explains that as an adolescent he aspired to be an artist and consequently attended Cooper Union after graduating from high school. David recounts his decision to leave New York in 1960 and drive out to California, where he immediately enrolled at the San Francisco Art Institute and soon after started playing music with fellow artists. David explains how he became the drummer for Big Brother and the Holding Company in 1966 and reminisces about the legendary Monterey Pop Festival they performed at the following year. He shares numerous stories about Janis Joplin and speaks movingly about his grief upon hearing the news of her death. David discusses the various bands he played in after the dissolution of Big Brother and the Holding Company, as well as the many places he performed over the years in Marin County. He concludes his oral history with a discussion of his family: his daughters Alarza and Liz, both of whom are singer- songwriters, and his wife Joan Payne, an actress and singer.

  • A Night of Frost
    A Night of Frost by Siegfried “Zig” Engelmann A Night of Frost © S. Engelmann, 2007 Page 1 of 274 A NIGHT OF FROST PART ONE HENNA Summerʼs my season. Course that donʼt mean I sit around all summer like a piece of lawn furniture, because I damned well donʼt. Iʼm the cook at Camp Timberline and more than likely I work harder during the summer than you work all year long. But I like the summer. Itʼs nice to look out of my window in the campʼs kitchen and see the blue lakes and the yellow meadows, instead of nothing but snow. People who donʼt know any better are always talking about the New England winter, but you can take it from someone whoʼs lived up here all her life: The only good thing about a New England winter is that it only comes once a year. Around here, you can always tell when summer is on its way by the way Jay McFarland dresses. When he sheds that old bearskin coat of his and gets out of his drag-ass overalls, you know it wonʼt be long before the campers will be here. Oh, that McFarland! The gossiping cornballs around here tell a lot of wild stories about him if you give them half a chance, but thereʼs not a word of truth to most of them. One story even has it that McFarland used to be in the movies. Thatʼll give you a rough idea of the kind of purebred gossip that goes through these woods. Course McFarland is a bit different.

This was not one of those times. Tommy Murphy stood outside the perimeter of the double chain link fences that surrounded the prison. He looked up at the rows of swirling razor wire and the twin gun towers that flanked the front of the massive industrial complex. The air smelled different out here, as if being on the other side of that fence gave you access to new air, air that was still unaffected by the body odor of all the inmates. Under his left arm, Tommy held his brown paper release package and with his free hand shielded his eyes from the glare of the sunlight.
