Here are some of the people who have worked with us over the years. • Past office administrators included Jessie Ross and Diane Noveroske. • Past fund-raisers and program coordinators included Olga Schifani and Branden Willman-Kozimor. • Past environmental educators included Jennifer Moss, Margaret Blewett, Rachel Cowan, Cindy O’Hara, Diana McPherson, Stephanie Krantz, Susan Williams, Amy Roberts, Elena Gustafson, Kelly Larson, Angelique Harshman, Emma Starrett, Susie Schillaci, Aimee Slaughter, Jocelyn Warner, Emily Whitaker, and Kristine Coblentz. • Past Summer Outdoor Adventure Program educators included Michele Altherr, Sarah Gustafson, John Hogan, Tony Hinojosa, Bob Dryja, Andrea Spence, and Jessie Ross. • Our fabulous current staff is Katherine Watson, Executive Director; Jonathan Creel, Director of Interpretation; Beth Cortright, Nature Center Manager; Siobhan Niklasson, Environmental Educator; Laura Loy, Marketing Manager; and Linda Boncella, Volunteer Coordinator. Volunteers Even from the very start, we have had amazing volunteers teaching programs, digging gardens, leading hikes, insulating the ceiling, creating exhibits, raising and donating money, and making PEEC into the nature center that was so treasured by the community that we were able to move to a new building. Our volunteers are too many to list, but you made this dream come true. The people behind the named spaces Satch and George Cowan were long-time Los Alamos residents and quiet philanthropists who were committed to our town and our natural environment and particularly devoted to engaging children from the earliest years. The Laboratory Director is pleased to invest in PEEC and to the new Los Alamos National Laboratory Science Learning Center. We look forward to continuing our partnership with PEEC by supporting hands-on, minds-on activities for learners of all ages. Yes! My mother saw the turning of two centuries. She grew up on a Quaker family farm in Ohio, learning about the stars from her story-telling father. She helped found Green Acres, a progressive school near Washington, D. C., where children explored nearby farm fields for birds like the killdeer and used hand lenses to examine tiny creatures in pond water. She kept bird and plants lists in Germany, Massachusetts, and New Mexico. She Ruth Edgerton Hoge would love the new Nature Center, 1897-2001 embracing the spirit of so many nature Mother of Rebecca lovers like herself. Hoge Shankland Art was an early astrophysicist at Los Alamos National Laboratory, who co-founded the Graduate Student Summer Visitation Program and mentored numerous graduate students. He introduced astrophysical studies to the then weapons laboratory, and these studies have grown over the decades in response to his initiative. He introduced computer modeling to the understanding of pulsating stars. By his multi-faceted participation in the international astrophysics community, he helped make LANL a respected organization in astrophysics. Dr. Arthur Nelson Cox 1927-2013 “Los Alamos National Bank strives to make a meaningful difference in the lives of the children and the families of our community, both today and for years to come,” states John Gulas, Chief Executive Officer of Los Alamos National Bank. “ As a community bank, we are committed to ensuring that our residents have access to resources and opportunities that help them appreciate the value of nature. We are a proud sponsor of the Mesa Exhibit at the Pajarito Environmental Education Center, and we are honored to support an organization committed to promoting environmental stewardship.” Nancy earned her B.A. in anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley, and was a data analyst and staff member at the Los Alamos National Laboratory for some 33 years. In her quiet way she enjoyed the things the Nature Center is about. She ultimately succumbed to two incurable diseases after facing them for years

    HITCHMOUGH’S BLACK COUNTRY PUBS WEDNESBURY (Inc. Kings Hill, Mesty Croft) 3rd. Edition - © 2014 Tony Hitchmough. All Rights Reserved www.longpull.co.uk INTRODUCTION Well over 40 years ago, I began to notice that the English public house was more than just a building in which people drank. The customers talked and played, held trips and meetings, the licensees had their own stories, and the buildings had experienced many changes. These thoughts spurred me on to find out more. Obviously I had to restrict my field; Black Country pubs became my theme, because that is where I lived and worked. Many of the pubs I remembered from the late 1960’s, when I was legally allowed to drink in them, had disappeared or were in the process of doing so. My plan was to collect any information I could from any sources available. Around that time the Black Country Bugle first appeared; I have never missed an issue, and have found the contents and letters invaluable. I then started to visit the archives of the Black Country boroughs. Directories were another invaluable source for licensees’ names, enabling me to build up lists. The censuses, church registers and licensing minutes for some areas, also were consulted. Newspaper articles provided many items of human interest (eg. inquests, crimes, civic matters, industrial relations), which would be of value not only to a pub historian, but to local and social historians and genealogists alike. With the advances in technology in mind, I decided the opportunity of releasing my entire archive digitally, rather than mere selections as magazine articles or as a book, was too good to miss.

Visiting lecturers and faculty (vl, vf) are at Chautauqua for periods ranging from 1 to 5 days. LISA CORINNE DAVIS: Faculty, Hunter College "Lisa Corinne Davis' paintings occupy a point somewhere between cartooning and cartography, abstraction and figuration. Her carefully articulated images are oddly familiar but essentially ephemeral, visually resonant but also deliberately enigmatic. Davis’ subject has always been the exploration of racial, social, and psychological identity. She has developed her own vocabulary for rendering the world, a lexicon that expresses her personal experience as an African-American woman in the 21st Century, and, by extension, that of an individual in modern society. While subtly avoiding the clichés of special identity politics—if anything, challenging them—Davis provides the viewer with an evocative visual code for deciphering his own environment." (P. Hoban) Davis received her Master of Fine Arts degree from Hunter College and her Bachelor of Fine Arts from Pratt Institute. Her work has been exhibited nationally including exhibitions at June Kelly Gallery, Marlborough Gallery, Spanierman Modern, the Bronx Museum, and Von Lintel Gallery. She is currently represented by Gerald Peters Gallery New York, NY Galerie Gris in Hudson, NY and The Mayor Gallery, London. Her work is included in many collections, including that of The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, The National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, D.C., The Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.

Wagner, Chair Professor Emeritus Timothy Clark Professor Shannon Jackson Professor Darcy Grigsby Fall 2012 Copyright © Elizabeth Allison Ferrell 2012 All Rights Reserved Abstract The Ring around The Rose by Elizabeth Allison Ferrell Doctor of Philosophy in History of Art University of California, Berkeley Professor Emerita Anne M. Wagner, Chair From 1958 to 1966, the San Francisco artist Jay DeFeo (1929-89) worked on one artwork almost exclusively – a monumental oil-on-canvas painting titled The Rose. The painting’s protracted production isolated DeFeo from the mainstream art world and encouraged contemporaries to cast her as Romanticism’s lonely genius. However, during its creation, The Rose also served as an important matrix for collaboration among artists in DeFeo’s bohemian community. Her neighbors – such as Wallace Berman (1926-76) and Bruce Conner (1933-2008) – appropriated the painting in their works, blurring the boundaries of individual authorship and blending production and reception into a single process of exchange. I argue that these simultaneously creative and social interactions opened up the autonomous artwork, cloistered studio, and the concept of the individualistic artist championed in Cold-War America to negotiate more complex relationships between the individual and the collective.
