Index to the Oral History Series of the Papers of Charles Bridgham Hosmer National Trust for Historic Preservation Library Collection University of Maryland Libraries For more information, contact the National Trust for Historic Preservation Library Collection [email protected] 301-405-6320 Guide to the Comprehensive Index for the Hosmer Oral Interviews, 1981-1986 From 1981-1986, Charles Bridgham Hosmer, Jr. interviewed many of the prominent figures in the preservation field in the United States as part of a project for the Eastern National Park and Monument Association. The majority of these interviews have been authorized, by the interviewee, for use by researchers, but until now had not been indexed. The following document is a comprehensive index of the authorized interviews. A list of the available interviews follows this introduction. Manuscripts of the individual interviews are available for on-site use by researchers through the Archives and Manuscripts Department, University of Maryland Libraries, College Park. Format of the index: This index is formatted following the Chicago Style guidelines for an “indented index.” The format is similar to an outline where there is a main topic heading followed by indented sub-topic headings. If a topic has both entries for the interviewee discussing the main topic and a list of sub-topics, the main topic entries will be listed first. The index includes people, cities, states, places, agencies, legislation, programs and general preservation topics. Examples of formats: Main heading Interviewee name and page number Main heading Subheading Interviewee name and page number Main heading Subheading Sub-subheading Interviewee name and page number Some hints: For information on: Specific cities: look up the city name Specific National Parks or Sites: look under the Park or Site name National Trust Historic Sites: look under the individual site name Colonial Williamsburg: For ease of indexing all entries have been sorted under the generic heading of "Colonial Williamsburg." This term covers activities of the Colonial Williamsburg, Inc., Colonial Williamsburg Restoration and Colonial Williamsburg Foundation.

He won three Pulitzer Prizes, two for his poetry and another for a biography of <a href="http://www.poemhunter.com/abraham-lincoln/">Abraham Lincoln</a>. H. L. Mencken called Carl Sandburg "indubitably an American in every pulse- beat." <b> Biography</b> Sandburg was born in Galesburg, Illinois, to parents of Swedish ancestry. At the age of thirteen (During Eighth grade) he left school and began driving a milk wagon. From the age of about fourteen until he was seventeen or eighteen, he worked as a porter at the Union Hotel barbershop in Galesburg. After that he was on the milk route again for 18 months. He then became a bricklayer and a farm laborer on the wheat plains of Kansas. After an interval spent at Lombard College in Galesburg, he became a hotel servant in Denver, then a coal-heaver in Omaha. He began his writing career as a journalist for the Chicago Daily News. Later he wrote poetry, history, biographies, novels, children's literature, and film reviews. Sandburg also collected and edited books of ballads and folklore. He spent most of his life in the Midwest before moving to North Carolina.

    West Michigan Pike, the First Continuous Hard Surface Road Along the Lake Michigan Shore, Had Already Been Completed

    Recreation/Entertainment – Theaters 246 The Frauenthal Center for the Performing Arts, 425 West Western Avenue, Muskegon Originally known as the Michigan Theater, the theater was built in 1929 by Muskegon movie mogul, Paul Schlossman. The Moorish themed theater was designed by Michigan’s premier theater architect, C. Howard Crain of Detroit, and cost $690,000 to build. It opened on September 17, 1930. Almost thirty years later the theater was “modernized.” It closed in the 1970s until a citizens group organized to save it. Funding came from the Community Foundation of Muskegon County through a gift from local industrialist A. Harold Frauenthal. In 1992 Muskegon County voters approved a bond issue to renovate the theater and work began in 1998. Getty 4 Drive-In Theater, 920 Summit Road, Muskegon This drive-in was constructed in 1949 by Nick Kuris of Muskegon and was originally known as the N-K Drive-In. Jack Loeks purchased the outdoor theater in 1967, changing the name to the Getty Drive-In. In 1980 the Getty added three additional screens. The original screen was damaged in an October 2005 storm and removed in 2006 for safety reasons, though the metal frame still remains. Harbor I & II 1937 Lakeshore Drive, Muskegon The theater originally opened in 1921 as the Rivoli Theater. It was renamed Our Theatre in 1931. In 1977 the theater suffered a major fire. It was gutted and reopened in 1979 and an additional screen was added in 1981. Recreation/Entertainment – Theaters 247 Strand Theater 25-41 E Broadway, Muskegon Heights The theater was built in 1920, when Paul Schlossman became the secretary-treasurer of the Strand Amusement Company of Muskegon Heights.

Daley, Mayor Department of Planning and Development Lori T. Healey, Commissioner The Commission on Chicago Landmarks, whose nine members are appointed by the Mayor and City Council, was established in 1968 by city ordinance. The Commission is responsible for recommend- ing to the City Council which individual buildings, sites, objects, or districts should be designated as Chicago Landmarks, which protects them by law. The landmark designation process begins with a staff study and a preliminary summary of information related to the potential designation criteria. The next step is a preliminary vote by the landmarks commission as to whether the proposed landmark is worthy of consideration. This vote not only initiates the formal designation process, but it places the review of city permits for the property under the jurisdiction of the Commission until a final landmark recommendation is acted on by the City Council. This Landmark Designation Report is subject to possible revision and amendment during the designation process. Only language contained within the designation ordinance adopted by the City Council should be regarded as final.
