Administrative Information Acquisition Information The George and Phoebe Apperson Hearst Papers were given to The Bancroft Libraryby Mr. and Mrs. William Randolph Hearst, Jr., and the Hearst Corporation onvarious dates beginning in 1969. Small additions were also made by other familymembers at various times. Processing Information Processed by Elizabeth Stephens, Rebecca Kim, and Eric Crawley. Biographical Sketch George Hearst, born 1820 in Franklin County, Missouri, had little formal educationbut educated himself in geology and prospecting. His talent for scoping out the "layof the land" paid off in some of the most important mining claims in the UnitedStates. The Comstock Lode in Nevada, the Homestake gold mine in South Dakota and theAnaconda copper mine in Montana would become three of the largest mining discoveriesin American history. As a rancher and prospector Hearst continually acquired largeportions of land throughout the United States, especially in California and theWest. In 1863 Hearst married Phoebe Apperson, a teacher from his home state. Movingto San Francisco, Phoebe gave birth to their only child, William Randolph Hearst, in1863. George purchased the 48,000 acre Piedras Blancas Ranch at San Simeon in 1865,adding the adjoining Santa Rosa and San Simeon ranches later. During his lifetimethe ranches were used as a family retreat. In 1873 Phoebe took her young son Williamon a grand tour of Europe where the two spent more than a year visiting castles,museums, and various cultural centers. This trip would prove to be a pivotalinspiration for William's later endeavor constructing Hearst Castle at San Simeon. George Hearst was elected to the United States senate in 1887 and the couplerelocated to Washington D.C. Soon after arriving in the capital, he acquired theSan Francisco Examiner as payment for a gambling debt. When hisson William asked to become the proprietor of the Examiner instead ofassuming control of the Hearst mining and ranching businesses, George Hearstrelinquished control of the paper to him and Phoebe became heir to the Hearst minesand ranches. After George's death in 1891, Phoebe returned to California and renewedconstruction on a residence she called Hacienda del Pozo de Verona in Pleasanton,California that had been started by her son a few years earlier. For the project,Mrs. Hearst commissioned architect Julia Morgan who would later design Hearst Castlefor William. Hearst (George and Phoebe Apperson) Papers Collection number: BANC MSS 72/204 c 3 Dedicated to education throughout her life, Phoebe Apperson Hearst became a generousbenefactress to educational institutions and individuals financing a school for thetraining of kindergarten teachers, founding the first free kindergartens in theUnited States and the National Congress of Mothers (a forerunner of the NationalCouncil of Parents and Teachers better known today as the PTA), and endowingscholarships for women students at the University of California at Berkeley.

The PTA is the result of the hard work of such women as Phoebe Apperson Hearst and Alice McLellan Birney, founders of the original National Congress of Mothers, and Selma Sloan Butler, who, with the support of the National PTA, founded the National Congress of Colored Parents and Teachers. When the two organizations merged in 1970, so did their identical mission to improve children's lives.

  • Syllabus-US CA Hearst Mus 2018
    MUSEUM LIFE AT THE PHOEBE A. HEARST MUSEUM OF ANTHROPOLOGY, BERKELEY (CA) Course ID: ARCH 300F July 9 – August 3, 2018 FIELD SCHOOL DIRECTOR: Dr. Benjamin W. Porter, University of California, Berkeley ([email protected]) INTRODUCTION Twenty-first century anthropology museums are well positioned to shed new light on humanity’s most vexing issues. Climate change, addiction, and migration are only a handful of themes that anthropology museums can explore in their often diverse and richly documented global collections. Museum professionals working in anthropology museums must therefore possess a wide range of skills and sensibilities to conduct their work that range from thoughtful collection management to descendent community collaborations. This course will start students down this path in a four-week course at the Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of Anthropology, a 117-year old anthropology museum that resides on the University of California, Berkeley campus. The Hearst Museum cares for nearly four million objects than span 2 million years and the six inhabited continents. The Museum’s mission is to “steward a vast collection of objects spanning the infinite breadth of human cultures for the advancement of knowledge and understanding.” The Museum recently completed a dramatic renovation of its gallery, collection management facilities, and teaching facilities, making this an exciting time for students to train in the museum. In this program, students will explore all aspects of museum work, including collections management, registration, informatics, cultural policy, fundraising, exhibit development, and education programming. Students will apply their knowledge and skills to a handful of museum projects designed to improve collections management, informatics infrastructure, and exhibits.

    ForumJournal VOL. 32, NO. 2 “Every Story Told”: Centering Women’s History THIS ISSUE IS DEDICATED TO BOBBIE GREENE MCCARTHY AND KAREN NICKLESS. Gender, Race, and Class in the Work of Julia Morgan KAREN MCNEILL n June 22, 1972, architect Julia Morgan’s Hearst San Simeon State Historical Monument, also known as Hearst OCastle, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Since then, 19 more places—including approximately 26 buildings—that Morgan designed or was otherwise closely associated with have been listed individually or as part of historic districts. (Hearst Castle and Asilomar Conference Grounds are also National Historic Landmarks.) No fewer than 15 of those National Register properties are associated with organizations of, by, and for women, underscoring how closely the architect’s career was intertwined with the pre–World War II California women’s movement. This might suggest that Morgan’s legacy is well understood and that the spaces of women’s activism of Progressive Era California have been well documented and preserved in the landscape. But a closer look reveals significant gaps and weaknesses in our understanding of Julia Morgan’s career and its significance. It also exposes, more generally, the challenges of recognizing and preserving the history of gender and women—and other underrepresented groups—in the built environment, as well as the opportunities to improve. A VARIED BODY OF WORK No single building on the National Register could capture the breadth of Julia Morgan’s architectural significance, but when her contributions are considered collectively, certain themes emerge. Several properties—including St. John’s Presbyterian Church, Asilomar, the Sausalito Woman’s Club, and Girton Hall (now Julia Morgan Hall)—are excellent examples of the Bay Tradition style, an expression of the Arts and Crafts movement in the San Francisco/ Berkeley region.

So wrote Phoebe Apperson Hearst from Cairo in a thirty- two page letter dated February ioth, 1905, ad­ dressed to Benjamin Ide Wheeler, President of the University of California. And thus she pro­ posed to end an association which had begun in 1891 when she offered to contribute funds to be used for scholarships for women students and continued in 1897 when she was appointed to the Board to fill the unexpired term of Regent Charles F.

Her reasons were several—her ill health which would force her to live abroad for a number of years, returning to California only during the summer months, and her convic­ tion that it was not right to hold the office when she could not attend more than three meetings a year.

    The Legislators of California March 2011 Compiled by Alexander C. Vassar Dedicated to Jane Vassar For everything With Special Thanks To: Shane Meyers, Webmaster of JoinCalifornia.com For a friendship, a website, and a decade of trouble-shooting. Senator Robert D. Dutton, Senate Minority Leader Greg Maw, Senate Republican Policy Director For providing gainful employment that I enjoy. Gregory P. Schmidt, Secretary of the Senate Bernadette McNulty, Chief Assistant Secretary of the Senate Holly Hummelt , Senate Amending Clerk Zach Twilla, Senate Reading Clerk For an orderly house and the lists that made this book possible. E. Dotson Wilson, Assembly Chief Clerk Brian S. Ebbert, Assembly Assistant Chief Clerk Timothy Morland, Assembly Reading Clerk For excellent ideas, intriguing questions, and guidance. Jessica Billingsley, Senate Republican Floor Manager For extraordinary patience with research projects that never end. Richard Paul, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For hospitality and good friendship. Wade Teasdale, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For understanding the importance of Bradley and Dilworth. A Note from the Author An important thing to keep in mind as you read this book is that there is information missing. In the first two decades that California’s legislature existed, we had more individuals serve as legislators than we have in the last 90 years.1 Add to the massive turnover the fact that no official biographies were kept during this time and that the state capitol moved seven times during those twenty years, and you have a recipe for missing information. As an example, we only know the birthplace for about 63% of the legislators. In spite of my best efforts, there are still hundreds of legislators about whom we know almost nothing.

Born in San Francisco and raised in Oakland, California, Morgan graduated from UC Berkeley with a degree in civil engineering. She was the only female engineer in her class. After Morgan received her bachelor’s degree, an instructor encouraged her to pursue architectural studies at École des Beaux-Arts in Paris. The school, which had never admitted a woman, initially refused her application. She was accepted eventually after reapplying and became the first female to graduate with a certificate in architecture. Upon graduation, Morgan returned to San Francisco and began working for John Galen Howard, a successful architect, on the University of California’s master plan. Morgan worked on designs for several buildings on the Berkeley campus and served as the primary designer of Berkley’s Hearst Greek Theater.
