Bryans Thesis Adviser Dr. Lowell Caneday Dr. Michael F. Logan Dr. Mark E. Payton Dean of the Graduate College . ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This thesis could not have been possible without the constant guidance and support from several individuals and organizations. Firstly, my committee members, Drs. Bryans, Caneday, and Logan provided constant patience and encouragement throughout my graduate studies at Oklahoma State University. Secondly, Amanda DeCort and Ed Sharrer at the Tulsa Preservation Commission and Katie McLaughlin-Friddle at Preservation Oklahoma, Inc gave me the opportunities to intern with their respective organizations and were willing to teach and mentor me as a student in the dynamic field of historic preservation. Thirdly, Derek Lee of the Tulsa Foundation for Architecture provided me with time and access to the wealth of information found in the Foundation’s archives, without which the chapter on Tulsa could not have been written. Finally, Lynda Schwan from the Oklahoma State Historic Preservation Office was always willing to lend her assistance, answer any questions, and steer me in the right direction. I dedicate this document to my family and friends whose love and encouragement sustained me throughout this experience.
