Historic Structure Report Greek Theatre University of California I. Historic Structure Report April 2007 Frederic Knapp Architect, Inc. Historic Structure Report Greek Theatre University of California A. Executive Summary Commissioned by the Physical and Environmental Planning unit of Capital Projects (PEP) in connection with the Haas School of Business Executive Education Center, this document summarizes historical information and observations of current conditions to provide a convenient reference conveying the significance of the William Randolph Hearst Greek Theatre. While intended primarily as a resource for understanding what makes this property historically important, this document also addresses historical considerations related to management and development. This Historic Structure Report (HSR) treats the Greek Theatre as a single property; it has three primary components: the classical 1903 amphitheater designed by John Galen Howard, the 1957 backstage complex designed by Ernest Born and landscape improvements designed by Ernest Born (with some level of consultation by Lawrence Halprin), and the site which is an integral element in the identity of an outdoor structure such as this. While the original site was a loosely defined but extensive portion of the lower hills east of the main Campus Park, subsequent developments on all sides have reduced it to the relatively discrete bounds described and illustrated in this report. This report traces the development of the theater itself and its site as well as its major architectural influences, and provides capsule biographies of the handful of individuals most closely associated with it. It includes a description of the property today, a statement of historical significance, designation of the significance of major components of the property, and a discussion of important materials and repairs issues. While this document is not a Historic Landscape Report or Cultural Landscape Report, it does consider the landscape elements important to the character and significance of the Greek Theatre. The Greek Theatre is listed in the National Register of Historic Places as part of the 1977 multiple resource nomination which encompassed 17 of the most significant resources on the campus. It is significant at the local, state, and national level for its association with important events, persons, and construction/design values. It is noteworthy for several reasons: as an excellent example of a classical amphitheater; as a site that represents the development of the Berkeley campus from the 19th Century period, the Hearst Competition and John Galen Howard, and the post-World War II era; and as a venue for important campus events and famous performances and figures from the larger culture. April 2007 Frederic Knapp Architect, Inc. Page 1 Historic Structure Report Greek Theatre University of California An outdoor space known as “Ben Weed’s Amphitheatre” was used for some campus gatherings on the same site before Phoebe Hearst, Emile Benard and John Galen Howard reshaped the campus and set the stage for Howard’s 1903 classical structure which survives today with a high degree of historical integrity. Howard’s original design was notably more elaborate than the theater as built, with a roofed colonnade at the upper promenade, but as executed the Greek Theatre embodied the essentials of a classical theater, following fairly closely the model at Epidaurus, Greece built in the second half of the Fourth Century B.C.1 Howard’s use of a spare Doric order, executed in cast-in-place concrete with a thin cement parging visually complements the relatively unadorned project as executed. Set in the hills above the main campus, it expressed the contemporary ambitions of establishing a new expression of Western civilization in the unspoiled landscape of the West.2 The structure underwent relatively little change from its construction until after World War II. Although Bowles Hall (1928), the Women’s Dormitory (now Stern Hall, 1941), and Gayley Road (1946) circumscribed a site which was previously defined by the surrounding grove of trees, the character of the theater (including the vistas to the west through the trees of the campus located below the site and in the distance of the Bay, San Francisco, and the Golden Gate) changed very little. In 1957, the only significant alteration occurred, adding a layer of Modernist architecture and landscape architecture which has become an essential element in the property. Architect Ernest Born deftly flanked Howard’s original stage backdrop, or skene, on the north, west, and south with largely subterranean backstage buildings and with landscape architect Lawrence Halprin tied the site and circulation on the north and south with a series of terraces, ramps, planting areas, and service spaces. The project reinforced the classical definition of the amphitheater, its spaces, and vistas, while using a very distinct visual language that allows the 1903 design to read clearly. Few exterior changes have occurred in the half century since the Born design was executed. The Greek Theatre continues in use for campus ceremonies and cultural uses scheduled by Cal Performances. While it has been maintained consistently, there has been some deterioration of 1 Robertson, Greek and Roman Architecture, p 166. 2 Helfand, The Campus Guide, p 17. April 2007 Frederic Knapp Architect, Inc. Page 2 Historic Structure Report Greek Theatre University of California note, including cracking in the west walls of the amphitheater; deterioration of the concrete in the seating area and the stone prohedria, or ornamental seats; significant water leaks in the ground floor of the 1957 addition; cracks through the center of amphitheater; and displacement of north and south quarter spheres. The site has been affected by construction of the Foothill Student Housing project, which seriously compromised the historical integrity of the theater on the northeast and east side and reduced the size of the eucalyptus grove; by the construction of the parking lot on the south side of the theater, which resulted in the removal of some of the trees from the eucalyptus grove and as a result reduced the overall effect of the grove on this side of the theater; and by construction of high-rise academic buildings west of Gayley Road which have changed the setting, altered views (to the west), and compromised the potential for acoustic performances. Future concerns center on the need for a capital project to rehabilitate construction that is fifty to one hundred years old and the potential for new construction around the property to impact the setting which is important to the identity and experience of the theater.

  • “I Don't Care for My Other Books, Now”
    THE LIBRARY University of California, Berkeley | No. 29 Fall 2013 | lib.berkeley.edu/give Fiat Lux “I don’t care for my other books, now” MARK TWAIN’S AUTOBIOGRAPHY CONTINUED by Benjamin Griffin, Mark Twain Project, Bancroft Library Mark Twain’s complete, uncensored Autobiography was an instant bestseller when the first volume was published in 2010, on the centennial of the author’s death, as he requested. The eagerly-awaited Volume 2 delves deeper into Twain’s life, uncovering the many roles he played in his private and public worlds. Affectionate and scathing by turns, his intractable curiosity and candor are everywhere on view. Like its predecessor, Volume 2 mingles a dia- ry-like record of Mark Twain’s daily thoughts and doings with fragmented and pungent portraits of his earlier life. And, as before, anything which Mark Twain had written but hadn’t, as of 1906–7, found a place to publish yet, might go in: Other autobiographies patiently and dutifully“ follow a planned and undivergent course through gardens and deserts and interesting cities and dreary solitudes, and when at last they reach their appointed goal they are pretty tired—and they The one-hundred-year edition comprises what have been frequently tired during the journey, too. could be called a director’s cut, says editor Ben But this is not that kind of autobiography.

Figueroa Street, Room 1510 Los Angeles, CA 90012 Re: The Greek Theatre Concession Award - Response to Mayer Brown Letters of October 8, 2014 and October 20, 2014 Dear President Patsaouras and Honorable Commissioners: On behalf of Live Nation Worldwide, Inc. ("Live Nation"), we write in response to the October 8, 2014 and October 20, 2014 letters from Nederlander-AEG's legal counsel. Unfortunately, these letters are nothing more than additional attempts to confuse and delay the process after your staff and a five person independent panel of experts (the "Evaluation Panel") unanimously found that Live Nation by far delivered the superior proposal to operate the Greek Theatre for the next 20 years. Live Nation scored a total of 455 points out of a possible 500, whereas Nederlander-AEG only scored 396. Live Nation delivered a vastly superior proposal - it is that simple. This letter will demonstrate, and even the most cursory review of the two proposals will confirm, that Nederlander-AEG's proposal - like Nederlander's current operation of the Greek Theatre - leaves much to be desired. Whether it's the Nederlander-AEG proposal's inappropriate use of Patina Group venue photographs (Patina Group is not Nederlander's, but Live Nation's food and beverage partner), a capital improvement contribution that isn't even half of Live Nation's, or a misleading pro forma projecting revenue from up to 80 shows when the proposal guarantees 50 shows elsewhere, the 40-year incumbent's proposal was so flawed that it could only have come from a company with a self-entitled belief that it, and not the people of Los Angeles, own the Greek Theatre.

Her reasons were several—her ill health which would force her to live abroad for a number of years, returning to California only during the summer months, and her convic­ tion that it was not right to hold the office when she could not attend more than three meetings a year.
