Rick Dillingham Collection
Rick Dillingham Collection New Mexico Museum of Art Library and Archives Introduction Rick Dillingham [hereinafter RD], whose full name was James Richard. Dillingham II, was born in Illinois in 1952. His college education during the years 1968 - 1976 secured him a Bachelor of Arts Degree at the University of New Mexico (1974) and a Master’s Degree from Claremont Graduate School, Scripps College, at Claremont, California (1976). His principal work as an artist was in the field of ceramics where he achieved international primacy . Representative pieces of his work are held in the Victoria Albert Museum in London, the National Museum of Ceramic Art in Baltimore, Maryland, the Smithsonian Institution, and the New Mexico Museum of Art in Santa Fe. He was best known, for his "broken pottery" technique involving the deliberate destruction of pottery made by him, the decoration and coloring of the shards, and their reconstruction when his artistic applications were completed. Scope and Content Note Part One presents scrapbooks, correspondence, announcements, catalogs, correspondence and other "paper records" and memorabilia. Part Two presents an enormous collection of photographs, 35mm slides, transparencies, postcards, and related material. Additional material is stored in the Collections Department of the New Mexico Museum of Art, and is accessible upon request. The Photography Archives of the Palace of the Governors in Santa Fe contain even more material. Juliet Myers' name appears throughout the Collection. She was the curator for and agent of RD, and frequently spoke in his name. RD suffered from AIDS during the latter part of his life, a malady referred to time and again in correspondence sent to him. -
How a Harvard Doctor's Sordid Murder Launched Modern Forensic Anthropology
How A Harvard Doctor's Sordid Murder Launched Modern Forensic Anthropology Aug 26, 2016 https://www.forbes.com/sites/kristinakillgrove/2016/08/26/how‐a‐harvard‐doctors‐sordid‐murder‐launched‐modern‐forensic‐anthropology/#6e1dd3e9be9f The history of modern forensic anthropology is a bit murky. As an applied science rather than a "pure" one, forensics was shunned for decades, its findings inadmissible in court. But the 19th century murder of a Harvard Medical School doctor launched the field, revolutionized law in the process, and began our longstanding fascination with TV shows like CSI and Bones. The story starts just before Thanksgiving in 1849, when Dr. George Parkman went missing. Parkman was from a wealthy Boston family, an old‐timey Doogie Howser who entered Harvard at age 15. He went to medical school in Scotland, returning after the War of 1812. Parkman donated some land in Boston to Harvard Medical College so that the school could relocate from Cambridge. He was also well‐known for lending money from his considerable fortune and for walking around town to collect on those debts. Left: Dr. George Parkman. Right: Dr. John Webster. Images from: Trial of Professor John W. Webster, for the murder of Doctor George Parkman. Reported exclusively for the N.Y. Daily Globe (1850). Images in the public domain, via NIH National Library of Medicine. A professor of chemistry and geology at Harvard, John White Webster, was one of those debtors. He had been having financial problems, requiring him to give up his family's Cambridge mansion. Webster's salary as a lecturer at Harvard simply didn't cover his grandiose lifestyle. -

None but a man of grand proportions could have emerged into prominence to stand with them. Webster, Choate, Story, Benjamin R. Curtis, Jeremiah Mason, the Hoars, Dana, Otis, and Caleb Cushing were among them. Of the lives and careers of all of these, full and adequate records have been written. But of him who was first their associate, and later their judge, the greatest legal figure of them all, only meagre accounts survive. It is in the hope of sup plying this deficiency, to some extent, that the following pages are presented. It may be thought that too great space has been given to a description of Shaw's forbears and early surroundings; but it is suggested that much in his character and later life is thus explained. -
