  • October 11, 2015 Bill Graham and the Rock & Roll Revolution
    May 7 - October 11, 2015 Bill Graham and the Rock & Roll Revolution Bill Graham played no musical instruments, save for the occasional cow bell. He could not really sing, and he never wrote a word of a single song performed on stage, and yet he changed rock music forever. During a crucial period of cultural transformation in American history, Bill Graham “stage managed” the rock revolution. His passion reflected the ideals of a generation and his life’s work has shaped musical taste and standards around the world to this day. Born Wolodia Grajonca in Berlin on January 8, 1931, Graham came to America as a Jewish refugee at the age of eleven with nothing to his name except the clothes on his back, a few photographs of his family, and a prayer book only to become the greatest impresario in the history of rock ‘n’ roll. Though he blocked the experiences of his early childhood from his memory, the hardship he endured left indelible marks on his character. He was strong and determined—and often abrasive. His quick temper was legendary, but equally unmistakable was his charisma and his compassion. It was one of America’s most turbulent eras. The Vietnam War was raging, the civil rights movement had progressed from non-violent to militant, and the airwaves carried messages of cultural revolution. Young people, the baby boom generation, had grown increasingly disillusioned with the world around them. Rejecting the stiff and stultifying values of the postwar era, they set out to remake the world by experimenting with new ways of living, new definitions of freedom, new philosophies, and a radical new style of music.

  • Chapter 1: Architectural and Social Background
    HAIGHT-ASHBURY AND ITS CONTRIBUTION TO THE COUNTERCULTURE MOVEMENT A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Historic Preservation and Planning by Ethan James Potter August 2020 i © 2020 Ethan James Potter i ABSTRACT The City of San Francisco, specifically the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood, was the epicenter of the American Counterculture Movement in the mid to late sixties. The social, cultural, and political impact of this movement is vast and widely known. This thesis provides a themed historical narrative of the Haight-Ashbury, specifically about its role in the Counterculture Movement. There are three major themes that explore the history of both the Counterculture Movement and Haight-Ashbury. Significant planning and preservation efforts for Haight-Ashbury, since the sixties, are also surveyed. Subjects such as intangible culture, history, city planning, and architecture are examined as they pertain to Haight-Ashbury and the Counterculture Movement. ii BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Ethan Potter is, above all, passionate for history. He grew up in Sammamish Washington, playing baseball and football. He studied history, English, and anthropology at Washington State University graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in History. He then worked in education as a tutor and a docent. Ethan decided to pursue a degree in Historic Preservation for its ability to educate the public about history. Ethan was inspired to pursue history after reading Carl L. Becker’s 1930 speech, “Every Man A Historian,” which demonstrates how historical research is conducted by nearly everyone, every day.
