(Arizona State University) 94 6 ABSTRACT Anne Graham Rockfellow, virtually unknown to history, deserves a place worthy of scholarly attention. Rockfellow's significance to the histories of American architecture, of Tucson, and of professional women is explored. She was the first woman architect academically trained at M.I.T. (the first recognized school of architecture in the United States.) In the mid-1890s she made her first move to Tucson, Arizona, a growing southwestern town that akeady had a long history. When Rockfellow permanently relocated to Tucson in 1915, she was hired by the H.O. Jaastad architectural firm, where she remained until her retirement in 1938. In order to put Rockfellow in a historical context, her biography is juxtaposed with the biographies of some of her female contemporaries who also chose to pursue careers in the field of architecture. Her contributions to the architecture of Tucson and to the development of the Spanish Colonial Revival style are also examined. 7 INTRODUCTION But around 1915, something began to click. It may have been the influence of a young collaborator in Jaastad's firm, or the inspiration of the Panama-California Exposition in San Diego. Whatever the stimulus Jaastad began to wax eclectic and romantic. And the grace of the Spanish-derived architecture that began flowing from this straight-arrow Norwegian is simply amazing. Only four years later, however, with the design of Tucson's Safford School, Jaastad seemed to reach artistic maturity. The building is no perfect model of the Mission Revival style - oh its wings stretch out a little too long and thick, its fenestration suggests bureaucracy sooner than romance, and its twin end pieces want more elaborate decoration ~ but it is a very adept marriage of old-world frugality and gentle, feminine graciousness. And it's easily the most beautiful building in Tucson. L.W. Cheek ~ Tucson Citizen, March 9, 1981 Anne Graham Rockfellow (1866-1954) was the "young collaborator" Lawrence Cheek mentioned in his article entitled, "Henry Jaastad: The Sensitive Architect Who Left a Mosaic of Styles," that appeared in the Tucson Citizen on 9 March 1981. "Annie," as she was known in Tucson, was one of those in Jaastad's office who attended the Panama- California Exposition in San Diego in the fall of 1915. ^ Describing that experience, she wrote, " I was much pleased and impressed with the architecture of the Fair buildings, and found the 'lessons' very helpful for later southwestern adaptation."2 In the spring of 1916 Rockfellow became officially connected with Jaastad's firm, principally as a designer, thereby helping it reach its "artistic maturity."3 Extant documentation credits Rockfellow 1 A. G. Rockfellow, "Professional Life of a Pioneer Co-Ed," 1938, 3. 2 Ibid., 1. 3 A. G. Rockfellow, personal history written for the Arizona Historical and Pioneer Society, December 1933. M. Sever in her thesis entitled. The Women ofMJ.T., 1871-1941: Who Were They and What They 8 with the Safford School design as well as being chief designer for many other notable buildings in the southwest, including the famous El Conquistador hotel.^ In truth, Rockfellow was fifty years old when she became associated with H.O. Jaastad, Architect. Not surprisingly, the years leading up to the time she worked in Tucson are as noteworthy as those years that followed, in which she left as undeniable mark on the architectural history of the southwest. The idea for tliis thesis emerged while I was doing research in the Arizona Architectural Archives at the University of Arizona. There I learned of Anne Graham Rockfellow's important, yet obscure, place in the history of architecture. Professor J. Douglas MacNeil (since deceased) of the College of Architecture told me what he knew about Rockfellow and assisted me in combing through the Jaastad collection in the college archive.

  • Against All Odds MIT's Pioneering Women of Landscape Architecture
    Against all Odds MIT’s Pioneering Women of Landscape Architecture * Eran Ben-Joseph, Holly D. Ben-Joseph, Anne C. Dodge1 Massachusetts Institute of Technology, School of Architecture and Planning, City Design and Development Group 77 Massachusetts Ave. 10-485 Cambridge, MA 02139 1 November 2006 * Recipient of the 6th Milka Bliznakov Prize Commendation: International Archive of Women in Architecture (IAWA) This research is aimed at exposing the influential, yet little known and short-lived landscape architecture program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) between 1900 and 1909. Not only was it one of only two professional landscape architecture education programs in the United States at the time (the other one at Harvard also started at 1900), but the first and only one to admit both women and men. Women students were attracted to the MIT option because it provided excellent opportunities, which they were denied elsewhere. Harvard, for example did not admit women until 1942 and all-women institutions such as the Cambridge School or the Cornell program were established after the MIT program was terminated. Unlike the other schools of that time, the MIT program did not keep women from the well-known academic leaders and male designers of the time nor from their male counterparts. At MIT, women had the opportunity to study directly with Beaux-Art design pioneers such as Charles S. Sargent, Guy Lowell, Désiré Despradelle, and the revered department head Francis Ward Chandler. Historical accounts acknowledged that a woman could “put herself through a stiff course” at MIT including advance science and structural engineering instruction.

    THE AMBRKiAN ARCIIITECTCRAt' FOtJNDATlON "That Exceptional One: Women in American Architecture, 1888-1988" is organized and circulated by the American Architectural j Foundation and the AIA Women in Architecture Committee. The exhibition will premiere on • May 15,1988, at die AIA National Convention | and Design Exposition in New York City before traveling nationwide during its three-year tour. The American Institute of Architects, founded in 1857, is a voluntary not-for-profit member- i ship organization representing more than 54,000 architects and architectural profession- i als in nearly 300 state societies and local chapters stretching from Maine to Guam. The mission of the American Architectural ] Foundation, the publicly oriented arm of the ( AIA, is to advance the quality of American j architecture by stimulating the public's aware- ness and understanding of architecture and its related arts. "I cannot, in whole conscience, recommend architecture as a profession for girls. I know some women who have done well at it, but the obstacles are so great that it takes an exceptional girl to make a go of it. If she insisted on becoming an architect, I would try to dissuade her. If then, she was still determined, I would give her my blessing—she could be that exceptional one."

Jr. AND THEIR DESCENDANTS BY GRACE WILLIAMSON EDES v.x BOSTON PRIVATELY PRINTED 1917 COPYRIGHT BY GRACE WILLIAMSON EDES 1917 EDITION 100 COPIES PRESS OF T. R. MARVIN & SON BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS i2526C0 To THE Memory of BENJAMIN TUCKER RICKETSON 1811 — 1890 PREFACE f^ To all of us who are descended from William Ricketson, the ^Emigrant, it is a matter of deep regret that we know nothing of his kbirthplace nor of his English ancestry. Indeed we are so wholly /without any guiding clue that we cannot even tell where to begin a Jsearch, Mr. Walton Ricketson, of New Bedford, opines that the name Ricketson may originally have been Rickatson ; he has visited several of the name living in London and also in their country place in Yorkshire, England, and writes that William and John are favorite Christian names with them as with our American family. They are however, too generic to be really indicative, and a correspondence with the present representative of the Rickatsons, Miss Mary Jane Rickatson of Stokesley, Yorkshire, has brought forth only disappoint- ment. Her family have lived in that neighborhood since the latter part of the eighteenth century, but she can carry her line no farther back than her great-grandfather, she can suggest no way in which more might be learned of her ancestry, nor has she ever heard of any other family bearing the same surname. About 1851 one Eli Rickettson came to this country and settled in Erie County, New York.
