  • 1996 Audrey Munson, Was Born in Mexico, New York in 1891 to Edger and Catherine Mahaney Munson. She Attended the Local Me
    1891 - 1996 Audrey Munson, was born in Mexico, New York in 1891 to Edger and Catherine Mahaney Munson. She attended the local Mexico Academy before leaving in 1906 with her Mother for New York City. Munson was discovered by chance in New York City by a professional photographer who passed her on the street. She soon became the most famous artists' model, posing for hundreds of works that still adorn public buildings and museums in New York City and around the country. In 1915 she was selected to be the primary model for sculptures and murals for the Panama Pacific Exposition in California. Audrey not only was a model for sculptures and statues but was the model for two U.S. Minted Coins, the Mercury Dime and a Half-Dollar. She starred, nude, of course, in four silent films. She was the first female to appear nude in a film, which proved to be the beginning and the end of her career. The films, entitled, "Inspiration'" "Purity," "Girl O'Dreams," and "Heedless Moth," caused picket lines attempting to block entry to theaters that dared to screen them. Ministers throughout the country objected to her appearance in these films which added to her noteriety. Headlines announcing, "Syracuse Model wanted in N.Y.C. Tragedy," contributed to her downfall as an actress. The 1919 murder of a doctor's wife in N.Y.C. by the woman's husband scandalized Munson as she and her Mother had lived at the seaside home of this doctor. Audrey was not involved and the doctor was arrested but this unfortunate publicity put an end to her film career.

Audubon named his farm, a pastoral landscape of woods, wildlife and rocky outcroppings, “Minnie’s Land” in honor of his wife. After bringing back plant and animal specimens The Historic Districts Council is New York’s citywide advocate for historic buildings from his 1843 expedition to the American West, Audubon lived on this secluded and neighborhoods.

As early as 1854, the name Audubon consultation over a yearlong period. Park was used for an enclave of ten large homes located on the former estate. Into the 1890s, Audubon Park retained a distinct identity from that of the rest of Washington Heights, remaining relatively secluded even as improvements in the street system The six, chosen from applications submitted by community organizations, are selected and the introduction of cable cars and the Ninth Avenue elevated railroad brought on the basis of the architectural and historic merit of the area, the level of threat to the residential development to its borders.
