A graduate of Mount Holyoke, Boutelle taught art and architectural history for many years at the Brearley School in Manhattan. Her interest in Julia Morgan’s architectural career began in 1972, when Boutelle first toured Hearst Castle and was dismayed to find interpretation at the state historical monument that referred to Julia Morgan as W.R. Hearst’s private secretary. Boutelle then dedicated the remainder of her life to researching and collecting material by and about the architect. In 1988, Abbeville Press published her biography, Julia Morgan, Architect. The book was awarded the California Book Award Silver Medal the following year. Boutelle also wrote articles on Julia Morgan and Mary Colter for scholarly publications, presented at three Society of Architectural Historians meetings, and wrote book reviews for the AIA Journal. She also lectured on the history of women in American architecture at UC Santa Cruz and worked on historic preservation issues in Santa Cruz. For her work as lecturer and preservationist, Boutelle was named an honorary member of the American Institute of Architects, the highest award given to a non-architect. She died in Santa Cruz, California, on May 26, 1999.

Boutelle’s lecturing and writing on Morgan not only preserved important documentary evidence of Morgan’s practice, but also lifted the architect from obscurity, inspiring others to study Morgan and her work. Documentary evidence of previously unknown Morgan commissions is included in this collection, along with materials documenting Morgan buildings lost to fire or demolition. Original Julia Morgan materials found in Boutelle’s papers have been processed separately as the Julia Morgan-Sara Holmes Boutelle Collection (MS 27). In many ways, the collection is the physical manifestation of Boutelle’s efforts to establish the credentials necessary to secure a book contract and publish her biography of California architect Julia Morgan, a struggle that is recounted in her article for the Brearley alumni publication entitled, “Julia Morgan: Architecture of a Biography” (Box 1 Folder 4). The collection contains 34.5 linear feet of Boutelle’s extensive correspondence, photographs, interview notes, book drafts, subject files, and visual media, research and interview notes on Morgan, her clients, colleagues, staff members and commissions, gathered by Boutelle in the course of preparing Julia Morgan, Architect (Abbeville Press, 1988, revised 1995). Additional materials in the collection include articles, book reviews, presentation notes, secondary sources, and newspaper

    City of Ambition: Franklin Roosevelt, Fiorello La Guardia, and the Making of New Deal New York Mason Williams Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Mason Williams All Rights Reserved Abstract City of Ambition: Franklin Roosevelt, Fiorello La Guardia, and the Making of New Deal New York Mason Williams This dissertation offers a new account of New York City’s politics and government in the 1930s and 1940s. Focusing on the development of the functions and capacities of the municipal state, it examines three sets of interrelated political changes: the triumph of “municipal reform” over the institutions and practices of the Tammany Hall political machine and its outer-borough counterparts; the incorporation of hundreds of thousands of new voters into the electorate and into urban political life more broadly; and the development of an ambitious and capacious public sector—what Joshua Freeman has recently described as a “social democratic polity.” It places these developments within the context of the national New Deal, showing how national officials, responding to the limitations of the American central state, utilized the planning and operational capacities of local governments to meet their own imperatives; and how national initiatives fed back into subnational politics, redrawing the bounds of what was possible in local government as well as altering the strength and orientation of local political organizations. The dissertation thus seeks not only to provide a more robust account of this crucial passage in the political history of America’s largest city, but also to shed new light on the history of the national New Deal—in particular, its relation to the urban social reform movements of the Progressive Era, the long-term effects of short-lived programs such as work relief and price control, and the roles of federalism and localism in New Deal statecraft.

The "progressive profile" as developed in the Mowry-Chandler-Hofstadter thesis characterizes the progressive as one who possessed distinctive social, economic, and political qualities that distinguished him from the non-progressive. In 1965 in a political history seminar at Central Missouri State College, Warrensburg, Missouri, I tested the above model by using a single United States House representative from the state of Missouri. When I came to the Oklahoma State University in 1967, I decided to expand my test of this model by examining the thirteen representatives from Oklahoma during the years 1901 through 1917. In testing the thesis for Oklahoma, I investigated the social, economic, and political characteristics of the members whom Oklahoma sent to the United States House of Representatives during those years, and scrutinized the role they played in the formulation of domestic policy. In addition, a geographical analysis of the various Congressional districts suggested the effects the characteristics of the constituents might have on the representatives.

This thesis examines the development from the novel perspective of medievalism—the study of the Middle Ages as an imaginative construct in western society after their actual demise. It offers a selection of the best known neo-Gothic artifacts in the city, describes the technological innovations which distinguish them from the medievalist architecture of the nineteenth century, and shows the motivation for their creation. The significance of the California Arts and Crafts movement is explained, and profiles are offered of the two leading medievalist architects of the period, Bernard Maybeck and Julia Morgan.

This also includes an analysis between Hearst and Roosevelt, and noting the varying levels of influence between the two. This thesis will demonstrate that William Randolph Hearst is a prominent figure of 20 th century history, but was overshadowed by Roosevelt. Hearst while powerful was always putting his power into ventures that would backfire politically. When his papers declined, his influence over politics plummeted instantly.

Nos referimos al viejo y controvertido tema de los traslados monumentales, algo que se ha venido realizando con cierta frecuencia a lo largo de la Historia, aun cuando en la mayor parte de los casos las razones esgrimidas para su ejecución no llegasen a alcanzar el mínimo grado de justificación exigible. Así, la mayoría de los traslados ha sido consecuencia del expolio artístico y debe incluirse dentro del denominado elginismo, entendiendo como tal el conjunto de operaciones especulativas sobre edificios históricos con desmembramiento de los mismos, una suerte de destrucción del patrimonio monumental al que, en otras ocasiones, hemos dedicado nuestra atención y cuyo total esclarecimiento dista aún bastante de poderse considerar 135 LA CASA GRALLA Y LOS PATIOS TRASLADADOS concluido , por desgracia, de la actividad debemos entender otro tanto. Tan solo en contadas ocasiones los traslados han venido impuestos por razones poderosas, razones de interés público diríamos, como último recurso para el salvamento de estas estructuras. Quizás dentro de este apartado, con marcada benevolencia, deberíamos incluir los no pocos realizados en el presente siglo en Barcelona, a los que en páginas contiguas se refiere el profesor Navascués, y en los que los resultados finales son en su mayoría ciertamente preocupantes.

    RESOURCEFUL DISCIPLE the LIFE, TIMES, & EXTENDED FAMILY of THOMAS EDWARDS BASSETT (1862-1926) by Arthur R. Bassett Prologue Purposed Audience and Prepared Authorship Part 1: For Whom the Bells Toll: Three Target Audiences It might be argued that every written composition, either by intent or subconsciously, has an intended audience to whom it is addressed; this biography, as indicated in the title, has three: 1) those interested in the facts surrounding the life of Thomas E. Bassett, 2) those interested in his times, and 3) those with an interest in his extended family. 1) Those Interested in His Life In one sense, this is the story of a single solitary life, selected and plucked from a pool of billions. It is the life of Thomas E. Bassett. He is not only my grandfather; he is also one of my heroes, so I hope that I can be forgiven if at times this biography exhibits overtones of a hagiography.1 I feel that his story deserves to be preserved, if for no other reason than his life was so extraordinary. It is truly a classic example of the America dream come true. Like most of his immediate descendants, I had heard the litany of his achievements from my very early childhood: first state senator from his county, first schoolteacher in Rexburg, first postmaster, newspaper editor, stake president, etc. However, as far as I know, no one has laid out the entire tapestry of his life in such a way that the chronological order and interrelationship of these accomplishments is demonstrated. This has been a major part of my project in this biography.

  • Distribution of Expenses Sheets 1924–1940

    Distribution of Expenses Sheets 1924–1940

    Appendix I Julia Morgan’s Distribution of Expenses Sheets 1924–1940 The seventeen Distribution of Expenses sheets that begin on the next page are noteworthy for their comprehensiveness. Seemingly no stone was left unturned in their compilation for each of the years in question, 1924 through 1940. Theoretically, every telephone call that was chargeable to the Morgan office is reflected here; so is every telegram sent, along with every hour of time logged in the drafting room by Morgan herself or one of her staff; and so on with every other expense, however large or small, however active or inactive a client’s status (many small follow-ups on old jobs are apparent in these sheets). But as we saw in Chapter 4, the expenses stemming in 1929 from the Douras Mausoleum and the Marion Davies Clinic aren’t specified in the sheet for that year; and there may be other minor exceptions for 1924 through 1940 besides those two instances. Be that as it may, the great majority of the entries on all the sheets are in dollars and cents, such as the $2.98 for Wyntoon in 1924. Whole-dollar amounts like the $30.00 for the San Pedro YWCA, also in 1924, are much less common. This trend reflects exactness of accounting on the one hand; on the other hand it reflects the clout that even the smallest denominations had in those years, as seen in several of the itemized entries in Appendix II for blueprints and the like. The 1920s dollar should be multiplied by a factor of 10 or 12 to yield a present-day equivalence; the factor for a 1930s dollar is closer to 15; all such factors are likely to keep increasing over time.
