Biography Files Donated to AHS by the Arizona Historical Foundation (AHF) Comprise the Core of This Collection TITLE: Arizona Historical Society Biography Collection DATE RANGE: Territorial Arizona – present CALL NUMBER: PP MS 300 PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: 32linear feet (63 document boxes) PROVENANCE: Multiple donors COPYRIGHT: Copyright varies RESTRICTIONS: This collection is unrestricted. CREDIT LINE: Biography Collection, PP MS 300, Arizona Historical Society – Papago Park PROCESSED BY: Michelle Bickert, August 2012; updated 2020 HISTORICAL NOTE: The Biography Collection is an active, artificial collection that had not previously existed at the Arizona Historical Society (AHS). The donations came from multiple sources. The Biography Files donated to AHS by the Arizona Historical Foundation (AHF) comprise the core of this collection. Files from the AHS vertical files and Small Manuscripts collection were integrated during the process of removing duplicates, combining files, and evaluating the physical condition of these materials. The earliest files in the collection were intended to capture information about Arizona pioneers. AHF used a four-page Pioneer Biography form which contains sections on parents, siblings, spouses, children, education, work history, religious affiliation, and military service. In addition the form documented when and how the individual arrived in Arizona and memorable experiences while living in Arizona. The forms were filled out by the individual, usually with assistance from a family member or student. Over a quarter of the files include the forms and are marked in the list below. NOTE TO POTENTIAL DONORS: We are actively seeking donations to this collection, especially materials documenting 20th and 21st Century immigrant communities. For readers who may have materials to add to this collection, please contact the Library and Archives, Arizona Historical Society-Papago Park at 480-929-0292 extension 174. SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE: The AHS Biography collection contains material relating to over 2100 people who call themselves Arizonans. These individuals span race, age, gender, and class. Although some may be more well-known than others, each has made their contributions to Arizona history; has provided insights on their Arizona experiences; and has offered their unique points of view on life in Arizona. The files vary widely from one document to many and contain primary and secondary sources including but not limited to: newspaper clippings, obituaries, student research papers, journal Biography Collection – 1 of 58 Arizona Historical Society at Papago Park, 1300 N.

    Title: Museum of Northern Arizona Photo Archives – Crafts and Arts Prints Dates: 1930s-1990s Extent: 2802 images Name of Creator(s): Museum of Northern Arizona staff including Leland Abel, John Adair, E. Capps, Harold S. Colton, S. Cooper, Robert Fronske, Marc Gaede, Parker Hamilton, Lyndon L. Hargrave, Neil Judd, A.J. "Lex" Lindsay, P. Long, M. Middleton, T. Nichols, L. W. Smith, C. Turner, W.M. Wells, and Barton Wright. Organizational History: In 1959, the Photography Department and position of Photographer created by director Dr. E. B. Danson, with Parker Hamilton as MNA’s first Assistant in Photography, later that year promoted to Photographer. Prior to 1959, the photo archives were a part of the Publications Department but not under the management of a photographer. In 1960, a large-scale cataloging initiative of new and old prints, negatives, and slides was undertaken. A photography studio and cataloging room was established in Fleischman Hall (now Schaeffer) in 1965. An inventory was made of negatives in June 1969 which noted missing negatives. By the early 1980s the Photography Department became the Photo Archives, reflecting a shift in focus from active photography to preservation of and access to existing materials. An inventory of negatives was done again in February 1988 with notes made of missing negatives. The Photo Archives moved to the Library in 1995. In 2005, the Photo Archives ceased operation as a department, and staff photography became the responsibility of the Marketing Department while the care of materials and use requests were the responsibility of the Library staff. The Photo Archives were made the responsibility of the Archivist in 2008.

  • Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Minority Group Entry Into the Building Trade Unions
    Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Minority Group Entry into the Building Trade Unions At a time when the high rate of black unemployment is a leading cause of racial unrest in our nation,1 the construction industry is ac- tually experiencing a shortage of skilled labor.2 Even with present union members working large amounts of overtime,3 demand still far exceeds supply.4 As a result, although productivity gains in recent years seem to have been minimal," wages have increased considerably both in absolute terms6 and in comparison with other industries3 Moreover, barring a major economic setback, this demand is not likely to diminish in the future.8 1 See R. KENNEDY, To SEEK A NEwER WORLD 34-35 (1968); NATIONAL ADVISORY COMm'N ON CiviL DisoRDERs, REPORT 413 (Bantam ed. 1968). 2 Garino, Home Builders Hobbled by Lack of Skilled Help as Well as Tight Money, Wall Street Journal, May 1, 1968, at 1; Jedlicka, Crafts Training Gets Push, Chicago Daily News, Aug. 2, 1968, at 12; Wicker, New Construction in Building Trades, Chicago Today, Oct. 3, 1969, at 25. 3 A May 1967 survey by John Fenlon, an economist for the Bureau of Labor Statistics, showed that 22.9% of all workers in the construction industry worked more than 41 hours a week.

Estimates of how much the industry pays in overtime costs run as high as one billion dollars a year.

DESCRIPTORS Academic Achievement; Adult Education; *American Indian Education; American Indians; *Demonstration Programs; *Educational Practices; Elementary Secondary Education; Evaluation Criteria; Higher Education; Program Descriptions ABSTRACT This book presents 16 exemplary programs in schools that enroll American Indian or Alaska Native students. Exemplary, by definition, means the top 5 percent of education programs in student outcomes. In most cases, these programs are in the top 1 percent. Each program entryincludes contact information, a narrative description, and in some cases, awards received, documentation of student outcomes, and other relevant information. Schools range from elementary through college and include public, private, tribal, and nonprofit. Programs address student support services, comprehensive school improvement, dropout prevention, adult education, college preparation, technology integration, and other areas. All 16 programs are summarized on one page in the beginning of the book, and program characteristics are presented in chart form. A brief history of Indian education is followed by a description of the 11 elements that are characteristic of exemplary programs: acknowledgement of the problem; set priorities for problems; vision, planning; commitment; restructuring and retraining; goal setting; experimentation, testing, and evaluation; outreach; expertise; and administrative support.

  • 6 “THE BLACKS SHOULD NOT BE ADMINISTERING the PHILADELPHIA PLAN” Nixon, the Hard Hats, and “Voluntary” Affirmative Action
    6 “THE BLACKS SHOULD NOT BE ADMINISTERING THE PHILADELPHIA PLAN” Nixon, the Hard Hats, and “Voluntary” Affirmative Action Trevor Griffey The conventional history of the rise of affirmative action in the late 1960s and early 1970s tends toward a too simple dialectic. The early creation and extension of affirmative action law is often described as an extension of the civil rights movement, whereas organized opposition to affirmative action is described as something that occurred later, as a backlash or reaction that did not fully take hold until Ronald Reagan was elected president in 1980.1 In this chapter, I tell a different story. I describe the role that labor union resistance to affirmative action played in limiting the ability of the federal gov- ernment to enforce new civil rights laws well before the more overt backlash against affirmative action became ascendant in U.S. political culture in the 1980s and 1990s. There was no heyday for attempts by federal regulatory agencies to impose affirmative action on U.S. industry. There was no pristine origin against which a backlash could define itself, because enforcement of affirmative action had accommodated its opponents from the beginning. Affirmative action law emerged out of and in response to civil rights move- ment protests against the racism of federal construction contractors, whose discriminatory hiring policies were defended and often administered by the powerful building trades unions.2 But the resistance of those unions to the 1969 Revised Philadelphia Plan—the first government-imposed affirmative action plan—severely curtailed the ability of the federal government to enforce affirma- tive action in all industries.
