Social Life and Social Services in Indianapolis Networks During the Gilded Age and Progressive Era KATHERINE BADERTSCHER ABSTRACT: In late nineteenth-century Indianapolis, a group of citizens, united by social networks, dominated the gov- ernance and management of the city’s social services for several decades. The tight-knit network of men and women worked together at the center of social and philanthropic life. Since its inception in 1879, the Charity Organization Society of Indianapolis (COS) wielded virtual control over social welfare—making it one of the most progressive and powerful philanthropic organizations in the country. An influ- ential coterie of men and women governed, donated to, and volunteered for the COS and many of its sub-agencies. Then, as now, social networks are as essential for us to understand as social entrepreneurs and charismatic leaders. KEYWORDS: Charity Organization Society; social networks; social life; Progressive Era; Indianapolis; philanthropy n nineteenth-century Indianapolis, a group of citizens, united by social Inetworks, dominated the governance and management of the city’s social services for several decades. Social networks build and sustain communi- ties, as groups of citizens solve community problems and work together toward a notion of the common good. Such networks facilitate access to information, enhance individuals’ influence, and create solidarity that INDIANA MAGAZINE OF HISTORY, 113 ( December 2017). © 2017, Trustees of Indiana University. doi: 10.2979/indimagahist.113.4.01 272 INDIANA MAGAZINE OF HISTORY reinforces cultural norms.1 The organized charity movement of Gilded Age and Progressive Era Indianapolis provide an important example of how social networks established and strengthened the community’s prevailing cultural norms.

The objective of these organizations was to attract convention business to the city. By 1932, conventions generated over $5 million for Indianapolis. Though the convention business experienced a decline during World War II, tourism in Indianapolis increased after the war. The ICPB changed its name to the Indianapolis Convention and Visitors Bureau (ICVB) by 1947. Through the 1960s, tourism continued to generate millions for the local economy. The ICVB was reorganized in 1977, and by the following year had developed revenue of $192 million. The ICVB was located in the 1201 suite of the Roosevelt Building on North Illinois Street. In 1972, a new convention center was opened at 100 South Capitol Avenue.

Burlingame, Ph.D., Chair Doctoral Committee ______________________________ Robert G. Barrows, Ph.D. March 6, 2015 ______________________________ Nancy Marie Robertson, Ph.D. ______________________________ Philip V. Scarpino, Ph.D. ii Acknowledgments My thanks begin with my doctoral committee. Dwight Burlingame advised me throughout my entire program, chose the perfect readings for me in our dissertation seminar, helped me shape the project, and read each chapter promptly and thoughtfully. His steadfast belief in my scholarship and his infinite kindness have been invaluable. Phil Scarpino and Bob Barrows led the seminars during which my dissertation idea took shape. Nancy Robertson challenged me to look at the work from many different angles and suggested a veritable treasure trove of scholarship upon which to draw. All their questions, comments, guidance, and encouragement have helped my work more than mere words can express. My colleagues in the doctoral program and students in the undergraduate program provided unwavering support as I lovingly talked about my research, “my organization,” and “my time period.” I especially thank Barbara Duffy, who chose the Charity Organization Society of Indianapolis (1879-1883) for her History of Philanthropy doctoral seminar research project. I enjoyed talking about “our women,” sharing our emerging ideas, swapping sources, and basking in one another’s “Eureka!” moments as we made one connection after another.
