  • Women Architects
    E-Newsletter | May 2012 Women Architects What do the Hearst Castle in California and many of the buildings in Grand Canyon National Park have in common? They were designed by women architects! In this month's newsletter, we feature two early women architects - Julia Morgan and Mary Colter. California's first licensed woman architect, Julia Morgan, studied architecture in Paris. After failing the entrance examination to the École des Beaux-Arts twice, she learned that the faculty had failed her deliberately to discourage her admission. Undeterred, she gained admission and received her certificate in architecture in 1902. By 1904, she had opened her own architecture practice in San Francisco. After receiving acclaim when one of her buildings on the Mills College campus withstood the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, she was commissioned to rebuild the damaged Fairmont Hotel. With this project Morgan's reputation as well as her architecture practice was assured. Julia Morgan Morgan designed her first building for the YWCA in Oakland in 1912. She then began work on the YWCA's seaside retreat Asilomar, near Monterey, which has hosted thousands of visitors since its founding in 1913. Today Asilomar is a state historical park. Morgan's work on the Hearst Castle, which is also now a state historical monument, cemented her reputation. The Castle, located at San Simeon, has attracted more than 35 million visitors since it opened to the public in 1958. Architect Mary Colter was asked by railroad magnate Fred Harvey to design hotels and restaurants along the Santa Fe Railway route, with the objective of bringing tourists to the southwestern United States.

Y\5$ In History by James Harvey Mitchell, Jr. San Francisco, California May, 2016 Copyright by James Harvey Mitchell, Jr. 2016 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL I certify that I have read The Gargoyles of San Francisco: Medievalist Architecture in Northern California 1900-1940 by James Harvey Mitchell, Jr., and that in my opinion this work meets the criteria for approving a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in History at San Francisco State University. <2 . d. rbel Rodriguez, lessor of History Philip Dreyfus Professor of History THE GARGOYLES OF SAN FRANCISCO: MEDIEVALIST ARCHITECTURE IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA 1900-1940 James Harvey Mitchell, Jr. San Francisco, California 2016 After the fire and earthquake of 1906, the reconstruction of San Francisco initiated a profusion of neo-Gothic churches, public buildings and residential architecture. 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.

    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.

  • Julia Morgan Wyntoon and Other Hearst Projects 1933–1946
    Julia Morgan Wyntoon and Other Hearst Projects 1933–1946 by Taylor Coffman AN OLD PHOTOGRAPH owned by Lynn Forney McMurray, a god- daughter of Julia Morgan, shows a large group of people at Wyntoon. Miss Morgan may be identifiable among them. Lynn thinks the photo dates from 1902 or ’03. It stems from the work being done on that northern California project by Bernard Maybeck for Phoebe Apperson Hearst. Julia Morgan, Lynn reasons, had recently returned from the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and was taking part in Wyntoon’s devel- opment under Maybeck. I’ve never confirmed Lynn’s theory, but it doesn’t seem far- fetched. Everyone knows that Maybeck had been a big influence on Morgan already and that they would keep interacting over the years ahead. However, no buildings are visible in the photo. The period de- picted, in any event, is that of the first-generation Wyntoon Castle—the medieval, Germanic pile that burned down in 1930. By then, at the outset of the thirties decade, Julia Morgan and W. R. Hearst had done some minor work at Wyntoon. In 1928, for in- stance, they built a swimming pool and two tennis courts. Hearst’s mother hadn’t left that property to him at her death in 1919. Instead, he had to persuade his cousin Anne Apperson Flint (a favorite of Phoebe Hearst’s) to sell him Wyntoon Castle in 1925—a point that’s neither here nor there where Morgan’s concerned. It merely means that the established Hearst-Morgan partnership, active at San Simeon since 1919, was at no liberty to do serious work at Wyntoon until the late 1920s.

  • Jessica Blanche Peixotto and the Founding of Berkeley Social Welfare
    Jessica Blanche Peixotto Revised May 29, 2020 1 Jessica Blanche Peixotto and the Founding of Berkeley Social Welfare Jeffrey L. Edleson, Ph.D.i University of California, Berkeley Abstract Jessica Blanche Peixotto was the first woman to become a full professor at the University of California in 1918 and yet her role in establishing social welfare studies at Berkeley is mostly untold. A social economist and foremost a scientist, she led efforts to infuse evidence-informed practice in professional social work education in the early 1900s, laying a foundation at Berkeley that is still felt today. Of her many efforts, she established a certificate in social welfare at Berkeley in 1917, the first such training on the West Coast. This article describes her personal and professional life and seeks to establish the importance of her role in establishing social work education at Berkeley and in furthering an evidence-informed approach to our professional work. Social work education began at the effective (Fischer, 1973). It has been the University of California in 1904 when academic home for Eileen Gambrill President Benjamin Ide Wheeler (2019, see Burnette, 2016), a member of appointed Dr. Jessica Blanche Peixotto as the Berkeley faculty for over four a lecturer in sociology.

Descriptive Summary Title: Julia Morgan Papers Date (inclusive): 1835-1958 (bulk 1896-1945) Date (bulk): Collection number: MS 010 Creator: Morgan, Julia, 1872-1957 Abstract: This collection contains architectural drawings and plans, office records, photographs, correspondence, project files, student work, family correspondence, and personal papers from the estate of California architect Julia Morgan, who practiced in San Francisco during the first half of the twentieth century. The bulk of the collection extends from 1896, when Morgan left for Paris to study architecture at the Beaux-Arts, to 1945 when her practice began to wind down. A persistent misperception exists that she destroyed records from her fifty-year practice when she retired in 1951.

February 2, 1957 “My buildings will be my legacy … America’s first they will speak for me long after I’m gone.” independent female Julia Morgan is recognized as the first truly independent female architect in America architect, she is and the first female architect licensed by the state of California. She designed nearly best known for the 800 projects in California and Hawaii, including the famous Hearst Castle in San Simeon. Hearst Castle. 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. In 1904 Morgan became the first woman to obtain an architecture license from the state of California and opened her own firm.

  • Herst CASTLE: Julia Morgan Was Enthralled with Mathematics and Physics in High School
    CountHerHistory October 2008 AAUW-Illinois by Barbara Joan Zeitz HERst CASTLE: Julia Morgan was enthralled with mathematics and physics in high school. Upon graduation in 1890, she decided to be an architect. With no architectural schools yet established on the West Coast, she enrolled in the all-male College of Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley, with the encouragement of her mother and the tolerance of her father. In 1894 she became the first female to graduate Berkeley with a civil engineering degree. Morgan pursued architectural studies in France at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris per the advice of a professor, but failed the entrance exam twice. She wrote to her professor she had been failed on purpose because she was female but that she would try again, “just to show 'les jeunes filles' are not discouraged." Once accepted, she became the first woman to graduate there, and went on to win medals for her work in mathematics, architecture, and design. Upon her return to San Francisco in 1902, she became the first woman in California to be licensed as an architect, and helped design several buildings at the University of California, Berkley including the Hearst Mining Building and the Hearst Greek Theatre. In a man’s profession, she started her own firm in 1904 and was commissioned to build a seventy-two foot tall bell tower at Mills College. An early advocate of building with reinforced concrete, about which she had studied in Paris, she used it in the tower. Her office and most of San Francisco was destroyed by the 1906 earthquake, but her seventy-two foot tall bell tower stood tall.

Description: (Describe resource and its major elements, include design, material, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries) Renowned architect Julia Morgan designed this distinctive Tudor-Revival residence, located on a private road. City records and aerial views indicate that its complex roof is a primary character-defining feature. The main roof is a broad hip, with many gabled accent roofs and dormers providing rhythm and scale. The windows and French doors are multi-lite wood. The porch columns and the multiple flues on the chimneys provide some relief in the outsized scale. A distinctive oculus window punctuates each of the main front gables. This residence has a broad, horizontal composition associated with great Tudor house designs of the 1920s and a unique polished feeling associated with Morgan's work.
