Regional Oral History Office the Bancroft Library Evelyn Danzig Regional Oral History Office University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California Evelyn Danzig Haas FINE ARTS AND FAMILY: THE SAN FRANCISCO MUSEUM OF MODERN ART, PHILANTHROPY, WRITING, AND HAAS FAMILY MEMORIES With Introductions by Eugene E. Trefethen and Elizabeth Haas Eisenhardt Interviews Conducted by Suzanne B. Riess in 1995 Copyright 1997 by The Regents of the University of California Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the Nation. Oral history is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well- informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Evelyn Danzig Haas dated March 6, 1995. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley.

Trefethen I am delighted and flattered--not to mention privileged and honored--to have been asked to pen this introduction. Toall of you who are about to enjoy the contents of the oral history memoir that follows, may I proudly present Evelyn D. Haas--and what a great lady she is! Evie, as she is more familiarly known, is in every sense of the word an ideal: she is a devoted wife, and a loving mother and grandmother. She is a dedicated community activist with a host of friends. She is a tireless, determined leader, blessed with good judgment and total integrity. She is an accomplished speaker, acclaimed author, traveler extraordinaire, and an art connoisseur and avid collector. She is a fine example of grace, good taste, and elegance. Evie is a doer, and a giver. She embodies the Haas family-shared philosophy about the joy of giving: that it is far more important than the joy of receiving. This is so clearly evidenced in her work with the Children's Theater Association, Children's Hospital, the San Francisco Symphony--just to mention a few of her numerous involvements. Evie, by the side of her husband, Walter A. Haas, Jr., and with their children, Bob, Betsy and Wally, co-directs the invaluable efforts of the Evelyn and Walter Haas, Jr. Fund, a family foundation. Sprung out of love and care for those less fortunate, it enriches life for all of us minute by minute. Of Evie's countless interests, one is considered a particular favorite, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. It is here that I and many others have had the good fortune to work hand-in-hand with Evie in strengthening the excellence of this institution. Evie's mother-in-law, Elise Haas, was a leading force in the early development of the Museum. Evie has followed suit in her hardworking, effective leadership roles at the Museum, e.g., past chairman, and president. Evie was a vital influence in making a dream come true--a new site for the Museum, a magnificent building that is now open to the public and serves throngs of people who are attracted to it, and to its precious art collection. Sharing a challenge with Evie is always pleasant, and rewarding. Her driving dedication is contagious, and always accompanied by a wonderful sense of humor. Not only does she have unflagging energy in her altruism, but try traveling with her on a trip to Egypt, Israel or China--non-stop adventure! I can vouch for it, from personal experience.

Surveying the area through a lens of geographic place and space, this research will look at the historical factors that led to the rise of a counterculture here. To contextualize this development, it is necessary to examine the development of a cosmopolitan neighborhood after World War II that was multicultural and bohemian into something culturally unique.

    DISSERTATION RECONSIDERING RANDY SHILTS: EXAMINING THE REPORTAGE OF AMERICA’S AIDS CHRONICLER Submitted by Andrew E. Stoner Department of Journalism and Technical Communication In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Fall 2013 Doctoral Committee: Advisor: James C. Landers Joseph E. Champ Patrick D. Plaisance Michael J. Hogan Richard Breaux Copyright by Andrew E. Stoner 2013 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT RECONSIDERING RANDY SHILTS: EXAMINING THE REPORTAGE OF AMERICA’S AIDS CHRONICLER The role of openly-gay reporter and author Randy Shilts (1951-1994) is examined related to his use of journalistic practices and places him on a continuum of traditional reporting roles as considered in the context of twentieth century philosophers Walter Lippmann and John Dewey. Reporter functions demonstrated by Shilts are examined, including those dictated by expectations of either strong journalistic influence over society and media consumers, or those more aligned with democratic practices where education and participation emphasize strong roles for society and media consumers. Using a biographical approach including 17 primary source interviews of former colleagues, critics, sources and family/friends, the examination of Shilts’s work as both a reporter and noted author is presented as being heavily influenced by his forthcoming attitudes about disclosure of his sexual orientation from the start of his career and his desire to explain or unpack aspects of gay culture, and ultimately the AIDS crisis, to heterosexual audiences. Careful examination of the posthumous critique of Shilts’s work – including his construction of Patient Zero – is undertaken. The study concludes that Shilts fully engaged a Lippmann-esque approach embodied in an authoritarian role for journalism that sought to change the world in which it was offered, and did so perhaps most influentially during the earliest days of the HIV/AIDS pandemic in America.

  • Managing the Invisible Hand of the California Housing Market, 1942–1967
    Managing the Invisible Hand of the California Housing Market, 1942–1967 Peter P. F. Radkowski III 1 Abstract Chronicled here is the history of governmental interventions in the Califor- nia housing market from 1942 to 1967, a period that encompassed rent controls during the Second World War, postwar urban redevelopment, and the activities of the civil rights movement. Constitutional issues associated with wartime emergency powers pitted the advocates of states’ rights against nationalist re- formers. The Emergency Price Control Act forbade constitutional reviews by state courts, federal district, and federal circuit courts. In turn, the appellate courts and the California Supreme Court held that local and state courts were required to hear litigation pertaining to actions under federal rent control. As wartime federal housing was returned to local control, state policy fostered race-based checkerboard segregation in public housing, as evidenced in what tran- spired in Richmond, California, where there were “staggered” mailings of accep- tance notices to black and white applicants. Other aspects of state law, action in the form of protection for intellectual property rights, reinforced a “checkerboard” 1 Ph.D., UC Berkeley; currently J.D. student, Georgetown University.

By the 1960s, two camps came to define the politics of housing in California. The fair housing coalition was nearly synonymous with the fair employment wing of the civil rights movement.
