Phoenix Area Homes Include the Circular David Wright House (1952), 5212 East Exeter Blvd., Designed for His Son in North Phoenix (1950), and the H.C
CITY REPORT (Iraq) Opera House (never built), serves as a distinguished gateway to the Tempe campus of Arizona State University. Its president at the time, Grady Gammage, was a good friend of the architect. Wright’s First Christian Church (designed in 1948/built posthumously by the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation in 1973), 6750 N. Seventh Ave., incorporates desert masonry, as in Taliesin West, and features distinctive spires. Wright’s ten distinguished Phoenix area homes include the circular David Wright House (1952), 5212 East Exeter Blvd., designed for his son in north Phoenix (1950), and the H.C. Price House (1954), 7211 N. Tatum Blvd., with its graceful combination of concrete block, steel and copper in a foothills setting. Wright’s approach continued through his pupils, such as Albert Chase McArthur, who is generally credited with the design of the spectacular Arizona Biltmore Hotel (1928), 24th St. and Missouri Ave. Wright’s influence on the building is clear in both massing and details, including the distinctive concrete Biltmore Blocks, cast onsite to an Emry Kopta design. The hotel was Foundation. Photo by Lara Corcoran, courtesy Frank Lloyd Wright restored after a fire in 1973, and additions were built in 1975 and 1979. Blaine Drake was another student who, with Alden Dow, designed the original Phoenix Art Museum, Theater and Library Complex and East Wing (1959, 1965), 1625 N.

Geologic Map of the Phoenix Mountains, Central Arizona
Geologic Map of the Phoenix Mountains, Central Arizona Julia K. Johnson, Stephen J. Reynolds, and David A. Jones Arizona Geological Survey Contributed Map 04-A Tucson, AZ 2003 Introduction The Phoenix Mountains, located within the Phoenix metropolitan area of central Arizona, are a northwest-trending, uplifted fault block that extends for about 13 km (8 miles) from Moon Hill in the northwest to Camelback Mountain in the southeast (Fig. 1). The area includes a main range, with 420 m (1,378 ft) of local relief, as well as several isolated peaks. The geologic mapping for this study covers the main part of the range, including (from northwest to southeast) Moon Hill, Shaw Butte, North Mountain, Stoney Mountain, Dreamy Draw, Squaw Peak, and the informally named Quartzite Ridge. The main goals of this study were to document the bedrock geology, reconstruct the geologic history, and produce a 1:24,000 geologic map of the range. The area contains a remarkable stratigraphic sequence that records the formation of continental crust in the region as it evolved from an oceanic setting to a more continental setting. The rocks have been cleaved and steeply tilted, providing a well-exposed traverse through this exceptional sequence. The range also contains spectacular Proterozoic (Precambrian) structures, which document the extreme deformation that affected the crust soon after it had formed. Lookout Moon Mtn.

By Jennifer M. Fogel a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
A MODERN FAMILY: THE PERFORMANCE OF “FAMILY” AND FAMILIALISM IN CONTEMPORARY TELEVISION SERIES by Jennifer M. Fogel A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Communication) in The University of Michigan 2012 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Amanda D. Lotz, Chair Professor Susan J. Douglas Professor Regina Morantz-Sanchez Associate Professor Bambi L. Haggins, Arizona State University © Jennifer M. Fogel 2012 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe my deepest gratitude to the members of my dissertation committee – Dr. Susan J. Douglas, Dr. Bambi L. Haggins, and Dr. Regina Morantz-Sanchez, who each contributed their time, expertise, encouragement, and comments throughout this entire process. These women who have mentored and guided me for a number of years have my utmost respect for the work they continue to contribute to our field. I owe my deepest gratitude to my advisor Dr. Amanda D. Lotz, who patiently refused to accept anything but my best work, motivated me to be a better teacher and academic, praised my successes, and will forever remain a friend and mentor. Without her constructive criticism, brainstorming sessions, and matching appreciation for good television, I would have been lost to the wolves of academia. One does not make a journey like this alone, and it would be remiss of me not to express my humble thanks to my parents and sister, without whom seven long and lonely years would not have passed by so quickly. They were both my inspiration and staunchest supporters. Without their tireless encouragement, laughter, and nurturing this dissertation would not have been possible. -

To Wright, this material was a highly expressive, decorative, and practical approach to create monumental yet affordable buildings. Indeed, some of his most iconic structures, including the Ennis House in Los Angeles, utilized the textile block system. However, like so many of Wright’s experiments with materials and engineering, textile block has posed major challenges to generations of building owners, architects, and conservators who have struggled with the system’s material and structural performance. -

Linen, Section 2, G to Indians
Arizona, Linen Radio Cards Post Card Collection Section 2—G to Indians-Apache By Al Ring LINEN ERA (1930-1945 (1960?) New American printing processes allowed printing on postcards with a high rag content. This was a marked improvement over the “White Border” postcard. The rag content also gave these postcards a textured “feel”. They were also cheaper to produce and allowed the use of bright dyes for image coloring. They proved to be extremely popular with roadside establishments seeking cheap advertising. Linen postcards document every step along the way of the building of America’s highway infra-structure. Most notable among the early linen publishers was the firm of Curt Teich. The majority of linen postcard production ended around 1939 with the advent of the color “chrome” postcard. However, a few linen firms (mainly southern) published until well into the late 50s. Real photo publishers of black & white images continued to have success. Faster reproducing equipment and lowering costs led to an explosion of real photo mass produced postcards. Once again a war interfered with the postcard industry (WWII). During the war, shortages and a need for military personnel forced many postcard companies to reprint older views WHEN printing material was available. Photos at 43%.
