  • A Mechanism of American Museum-Building Philanthropy
    A MECHANISM OF AMERICAN MUSEUM-BUILDING PHILANTHROPY, 1925-1970 Brittany L. Miller Submitted to the faculty of the University Graduate School in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in the Departments of History and Philanthropic Studies, Indiana University August 2010 Accepted by the Faculty of Indiana University, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ____________________________________ Elizabeth Brand Monroe, Ph.D., J.D., Chair ____________________________________ Dwight F. Burlingame, Ph.D. Master’s Thesis Committee ____________________________________ Philip V. Scarpino, Ph.D. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS In the same way that the philanthropists discussed in my paper depended upon a community of experienced agents to help them create their museums, I would not have been able to produce this work without the assistance of many individuals and institutions. First, I would like to express my thanks to my thesis committee: Dr. Elizabeth Monroe (chair), Dr. Dwight Burlingame, and Dr. Philip Scarpino. After writing and editing for months, I no longer have the necessary words to describe my appreciation for their support and flexibility, which has been vital to the success of this project. To Historic Deerfield, Inc. of Deerfield, Massachusetts, and its Summer Fellowship Program in Early American History and Material Culture, under the direction of Joshua Lane. My Summer Fellowship during 2007 encapsulated many of my early encounters with the institutional histories and sources necessary to produce this thesis. I am grateful to the staff of Historic Deerfield and the thirty other museums included during the fellowship trips for their willingness to discuss their institutional histories and philanthropic challenges.

  • No 15 Oct 20
    The Oil Can The Award Winning Newsletter of the Cooperstown Rotary Club Vol. 87, No. 15— October 20, 2009 He designed our village library building... Ernest Flagg, architect extraordinary veryone here, Iʹm certain, has walked down Main Street in Cooperstown, and admired the beautiful Village Li‐ brary Building, which also houses the Cooperstown Art E Association and the Village Offices. But have you ever wondered who designed it? Somehow, I never did until very re‐ cently, when I learned that its architect was named Ernest Flagg. What I found surprised me. Ernest Flagg was not just a gifted ar‐ chitect, who designed important American buildings. He was also a social reformer, who helped improve the lives of New York Cityʹs urban poor. He was a city planner, who influenced todayʹs New York City skyline. And he designed what was at the time the tallest building in the world. So what was he doing in a small vil‐ lage in upstate New York? Ernest Flagg was born in Brooklyn in 1857, the son of an Episco‐ pal clergyman who had become an itinerant portrait painter, as well as a speculative land developer. The family was not without its connections. One of Ernestʹs aunts had married Cornelius Van‐ derbilt; his sister Louise married Charles Scribner, the publisher. In 1872, at the age of fifteen, Ernest left school to become an office boy on Wall Street, and two years later ‐‐ with his older brother Jared ‐‐ he opened a small business selling salt codfish at New Yorkʹs Fulton Fish Market. For a time he lived in some of the filthy, ill‐lit, badly ventilated tenements of the Lower West Side.
