D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface ORAL HISTORY INTERVIEW WITH MAXINE ALBRO HALL AND PARKER HALL CONDUCTED JULY 27, 1964, BY MARY MCCHESNEY, IN CARMEL, CALIF. Interview MARY McCHENSNEY: First, I'd like to ask you a few questions about where you had your art school training. According to this little brochure that you have from your last exhibition, which was in January this year, did you say you studied in San Francisco? MAXINE ALBRO: Well -- first I began at the California School of Fine Arts and then I went for one winter to the Art Students League in New York. Then the next year I went to the Ecole de la Grande Chaumiere in Paris and then after coming home, I decided to go to Mexico and study with Diego Rivera. I did get down to Mexico and I did study fresco painting with Diego's assistant but I never studied with Diego, himself. I watched him (Diego) as he worked and got acquainted with him and we talked a little bit, a little bit in Spanish, a little bit in English. I enjoyed talking and watching him but I never studied with Diego. Although watching Diego was very beneficial to me. MS. McCHESNEY: What was the name of the man you studied with, Diego's assistant? MS. ALBRO: Paul O'Higgins was his assistant. He was an American young man and helped Diego in many ways.

    Armchair Travel _ Destination - United States of America _ San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers The Conservatory of Flowers at Golden Gate Park opened in Golden Gate Park in 1879. A powerful storm destroyed the glass and wood greenhouse in 1998, causing the conservatory to temporarily close. In 2003, the conservatory reopened after extensive reconstruction. The Conservatory features more than 1,700 varieties of tropical plants, from palms to cycads to cacao. In its five galleries, this modern horticultural museum displays many endangered species from over 50 countries and focuses on conservation education. © Copyright [email protected] 2017.

It was built to replace the previous city hall, which was destroyed in an earthquake in 1906. The current city hall, which occupies two city blocks, opened its doors in 1915. © Copyright [email protected] 2017.

Due to high operating costs, the government turned Alcatraz over to the Federal Bureau of Prisons in 1934. The Rock was a federal penitentiary until 1963.

    TOP HISTORY DESTINATIONS: San Francisco San Francisco became part of the United States with the signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848, then the very next year, San Francisco became the base for the gold rush. The city instantly became the largest and most important population, commercial, naval, and financial center in the American West. The rapid growth continued through the 1850s and under the influence of the 1859 Comstock Lode silver discovery. This rapid growth complicated city planning efforts, leaving a legacy of narrow streets that continues to characterize the city to this day.
