Women and Equality
WOMEN AND EQUALITY A California Review of Women’s Equity Issues in Civil Rights, Education and the Workplace California Senate Office of Research February 1999 Dedicated to Senator Rose Ann Vuich Rose Ann Vuich was elected California’s first woman state senator in 1976 and served four terms through 1992. Although a Democrat by registration, she built a reputation as a political independent who shunned deal-making. Throughout her legislative career, Senator Vuich represented her San Joaquin Valley district first and foremost and relied on her own knowledge and judgment to do it. She was reared on a farm in Tulare County, where she has spent most of her life. With a degree in accounting from the Central California Commercial College in Fresno, she worked as an accountant, tax consultant, estate planner and office manager before her election. After becoming a senator she continued, with her brother, to manage the family farm in Dinuba. The California State Senate began to change after Senator Vuich joined its ranks, followed over the years by other women. She kept a small porcelain bell on her Senate floor desk, and would gently but insistently shake it whenever a colleague addressed the “gentlemen of the Senate.” The Senate chamber originally had no women’s restroom. But that oversight permitted Senator Vuich, during a Capitol restoration in the late 1970s, to design a comfortable “Rose Room” where she and women members into the future could retreat from the Senate floor. A daughter of Yugoslav immigrants, Senator Vuich achieved many “firsts,” from serving as the first woman president of the Dinuba Chamber of Commerce to becoming the first woman to preside over a Senate floor session in 1986. -

Rancho Guejito
Winter 2007 Save Volume 38, Issue 1 OUR HERITAGE Organisation Rancho Guejito A California Legacy When was Modern new? Whaley House Kitchen Reconstruction The Historic Landscape & Garden Every Bungalow Represents our History From the Editor A new look with an old name When SOHO was founded in 1969 the organization went from 30 members to 164 in less than three months and published their very first newsletter Board of Directors within that same short time. Beth Montes It was called simply Save President Our Heritage Organisation. It David Swarens wasn’t until 1976 during the Vice President bicentennial when reflecting on the country’s heritage John Eisenhart became the national pastime Secretary that it changed to Reflections. Jessica McGee Treasurer What was right for that time Courtney Ann Coyle doesn’t quite fit today. SOHO Curtis Drake spends little time reflecting Allen Hazard these days; it is an action- Peter Janopaul, III oriented group that looks to Welton Jones the future and the importance Martha Jordan of saving San Diego’s past for Michael Kravcar that future. At the January ‘07 John Oldenkamp Board meeting, it was voted Jim Schibanoff to return the publication to its Mary Wendorf original name. From a branding perspective it makes sense; it is Erik Hanson important that the name of our organization and our publication are aligned. Returning to Ex Officio our roots and placing the focus on our name promotes organizational identity, and leaves Bruce Coons little doubt as to who we are and what we do. Executive Director Most publications undergo redesign periodically, and while SOHO’s newsletter has evolved Alana Coons all along, we felt that the time was right for a complete redesign. -

Legislators of California
The Legislators of California March 2011 Compiled by Alexander C. Vassar Dedicated to Jane Vassar For everything With Special Thanks To: Shane Meyers, Webmaster of JoinCalifornia.com For a friendship, a website, and a decade of trouble-shooting. Senator Robert D. Dutton, Senate Minority Leader Greg Maw, Senate Republican Policy Director For providing gainful employment that I enjoy. Gregory P. Schmidt, Secretary of the Senate Bernadette McNulty, Chief Assistant Secretary of the Senate Holly Hummelt , Senate Amending Clerk Zach Twilla, Senate Reading Clerk For an orderly house and the lists that made this book possible. E. Dotson Wilson, Assembly Chief Clerk Brian S. Ebbert, Assembly Assistant Chief Clerk Timothy Morland, Assembly Reading Clerk For excellent ideas, intriguing questions, and guidance. Jessica Billingsley, Senate Republican Floor Manager For extraordinary patience with research projects that never end. Richard Paul, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For hospitality and good friendship. Wade Teasdale, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For understanding the importance of Bradley and Dilworth. A Note from the Author An important thing to keep in mind as you read this book is that there is information missing. In the first two decades that California’s legislature existed, we had more individuals serve as legislators than we have in the last 90 years.1 Add to the massive turnover the fact that no official biographies were kept during this time and that the state capitol moved seven times during those twenty years, and you have a recipe for missing information. As an example, we only know the birthplace for about 63% of the legislators. In spite of my best efforts, there are still hundreds of legislators about whom we know almost nothing. -
