PUBLISHER'S NOTE
It must have been about 1970 on a visit to the iate Mel Royer, Los Angeles art book dealer, that I bought a thin monograph on a Northern California artist named George Booth Post. It had been issued in 1937 by the Federal Art Project, San Francisco, and it consisted of only eight mimeographed pages stapled to a cover with an original photograph of a harbor scene mounted on it. In March, 1972, I catalogued it at $5.00 and sold it to an East Coast dealer in my normal course of business as an antiquarian bookseller. Along the way, I was introduced to the massive work in twenty-one volumes of which it was only a tiny part, Ca/i/orwM Art Rfsparc/?.
It was a fascinating and eccentric document. The page layout still is a source of amusement and wonder. The justified right margins of the typewritten text required either typing each page at least twice or counting each line before it was typed and inserting spaces to adjust the length. That is not an efficient procedure, but, then, efficiency was not the goal. The sheer mass of the work and its immediacy—the brief and extraordinary surge of activity that produced it—recommended the future worth of Ca/i/orma Arf as sourcematerial. With a total edition of one hundred copies, it was undeniably scarce. Then, there was the matter of the mimeograph paper on which it was printed. Sets in libraries all over California were already entering the terminal throes of disintegration. AH these elements appealed to the antiquarian and preservationist in me. Late in 1972 I began to think about a reprint.
Various alternatives were considered. Each proved impractical or overly expensive. A straight, full-size reprint would have had a selling price of hundreds of dollars, thus limiting its market to perhaps two or three dozen buyers. To have completely reset the book on my own equipment would have reduced the size—and the printing costs—by two-thirds, but the prospect of typesetting a thousand pages was a daunting one. Other printed solutions only compounded the difficulties.
In 1980 the project came to life again when Ellen Schwartz generously accepted my invitation to update the bibliographies and the basic biographical data for each artist. This microfiche edition is the result.
The San Diego Public Library kindly let me use its complete set of Art to make amaster copy. The photocopying process increased the contrast of the text, and the type was strengthened by hand in areas where there seemed a real risk of illegibility. Ellen Schwartz's contributions were added, and this handbook was prepared as a guide to the set.
Continuous pagination and running heads have been incorporated into this edition to simplify its use and to allow the addition of about three hundred fifty pages of new material. The new page numbers appear at the upper left of each frame. On the fifth, seventh, and
tenth microfiche cards (vols. 9-10,13-14, and 19-20ptl), adjustments have been made to accommodate two full volumes per card. The new tables of contents at the beginning of each card are best used in tandem with the original, detailed ones that open each volume. The reader may need to refer both to the original page numbers (at upper right) and the new, continuous ones. In all volumes the sequence of original page numbers is interrupted by the new bibliographical features at the end of each biography. Citations to this edition should refer to both sets of page numbers, where applicable.
The eleven text cards are reproduced at a reduction of 42x. The original photographs that accompanied most of the monographs appear in their proper places, but they are all duplicated more faithfully on the twelfth card at a lesser reduction of 24x. Cross- references to both locations have been added.
The names of Eugenie Candau and Eleanor Hartman appear in Ellen Schwartz's Acknowledgments, but they both deserve my heartfelt thanks, as well, for their encouragement. William B. Walker, now Librarian of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, made a real difference at the very beginning of this project with his support and intelligent advice. Mary Fuller of Petaluma and fellow booksellers Michael Good and Joyce B. Muns supplied answers to some early questions.
Special thanks must go to the San Diego Public Library and its staff, particularly: the indispensable Rhoda Kruse, former librarian in charge of the California Room; William W. Sannwald, Library Director, and his predecessor, Marco Thorne; Mary Allely,Special Collections Librarian; and Eileen Boyle of the Wangenheim Room.
Then there is Ellen Schwartz. How shall I thank her for her part in this enterprise? Praise that might sound extravagant to a stranger will appear scant, even stingy, to those privileged to know her. She is a paragon among researchers, a devoted mother and catlover, and a better friend than her wayward publisher deserves.
Ca/z/brwM Art could have been reproducedcomplete and without comment, revision, or addition.It would have had its uses, and it certainly would have been finished more rapidly. Once the decision was made to bring the original bibliographies up to something approaching modern standards without obliterating the original references as first published, the closet door was opened. Elsewhere in this handbook Ellen describes the procedures she used and the limits she placed on her additions and revisions. Without her passion for excellence, her energy, her seemingly boundless good spirits, and her patience, I doubt that this project would ever have been completed. I am, and remain, in her debt.

OOORCALIFORNIA ART RESEARCH: An Historical Essay
Ellen Schwartz
CaAybrwM Art Research is an interesting episode in the development of California art bibliography. Itself a product of federal support in the 1930s, Ca/i/orMia Art Research is often cited in studies of New Deal art programs in California, but its publishing history has never been examined.* From the few surviving project records and from secondary sources, the story emerges of a thoughtful and industrious effort to document the state's most significant artists.
Initially Ca/i/br7Ha Art Research was a project of the State Emergency Relief Administration (SERA) under the joint direction of Dr. James B. Sharp (1901- 1941), State Coordinator of Statistical Projects for the Works Progress Administration (WPA), and Joseph A. Danysh (1906-1982), Western Regional Director of the Federal Art Project for the WPA. Two per cent of the work had been completed in July of 1935, when an application for financial support was made to the WPA. The goals of the California Art Research Project were ambitious: "To compile the history and development, public and private, of art collections in San Francisco; to make a study of the economic development of major California artists; to compile a series of biographical sketches covering the major artists of California." A final published report would be written by an editorial staff from information collected by researchers. Biographical and critical details were to be gathered for major California artists for the period 1769 to 1935. The history of art schools and commercial galleries would also be documented, and various aspects of the state's history would be examined, such as arts legislation, California primitives, Oriental influences on California art, and the relationship of California art to American art/
The Project was approved in January of 1936, after one rejection. Both Dr. Sharp and Joseph Danysh continued their involvement with the Project, Danysh on a volunteer basis; however, two new supervisors were appointed. Junius S. Cravens, a local art critic, was to direct the historical research, and Fred S. McFarland, who had been involved under SERA with the development of the Project's information-gathering guidelines, was transferred from the Federal Writers' Project to head the statistical unit. In line with Federal Art Project policy, the California Art Research Project also had a local sponsor, Dr. Walter Heil (1890-1973), then director of the M.H. de Young Memorial Museum and the California Palace of the Legion of Honor. The Washington Grammar School located at 901 Potrero, a building also used as studio and work space for other WPA arts projects, housed the California Art Research offices. The staff began work on February 14, 1936.
Junius S. Cravens, the first editorial supervisor of Ca/i/orTna Art Research, is an intriguing figure whose multi-faceted career in the arts deserves further investigation.^ Born in Indiana, Cravens studied art in his home state and at the Art Students League in New York City. He subsequently worked in New York as an illustrator and writer and then became an art editor for Fam'ty Fair, Fogae, and Butterick publications. Following service in France during World War I,Cravens returned to New York City to design sets and costumes for Broadway productions such as the Zieg- feld Follies (1918-1922) and also for motion pictures. He came to California in 1925, on his way to join Maude Adams in India to do a film of Rudyard Kipling's Kwr Cravens may have visited Hollywood, but when the plans for the film were abandoned, he chose to settle in San Francisco.
Active in the Bay Area art world, Cravens continued his career as a writer. The many quotations from his reviews which are to be found throughout Caii/orwia Art Research, especially in the later volumes, attest to his diligence. He was a critic with the Argcwaat for seven years and on the staff of the Argas for one year. At the time of his death, Cravens had been providing reviews for the Saw Francisco Acres for over two years. He also published articles in such national periodicals as Prints and Art Digest. His continued interest in the theater was evidenced by his involvement with local dramatic groups and several Bohemian Club Grove Play productions.
Junius Cravens did not live to see Ca/i/ornia Art Research to its completion. On the evening of July 3, 1936, his body was found at Mussel Rock, near Thornton Beach, in San Mateo County. Whether his death at age forty-two was accidental or a suicide was never determined. A letter of resignation from the Project dated June 30, citing doctor's orders for his decision, was found among his possessions. Newspaper accounts of his death hint at severe depression due both to recent disagreements with his peers and a failure to receive an unspecified position of prestige in the field of art criticism. Grant Wallace, one of the editors of Caii/orwia Art Research, did not feel that his friend was suicidal, relating that the talented critic was intensely devoted to his many creative pursuits.The death of Junius Cravens was widely reported in the California press and nationally in the Mete Yorh Fiwes and Art Digest. Since he died but a few months before the first volumes of Ca/i/braia Art Research were published, it is unfortunate that he is never linked bibliographically with the series. Gene Hailey, his successor is always given the credit as the chief editor/
ooon m S T O R IC A L ESSAY vii
Genevieve Hailey was born in Pendleton, Oregon, the daughter of Maud L. Beach Hailey and Thomas G. Hailey. Her father, a prominent Portland attorney and Oregon Supreme Court justice, died in 1908. Her first visit to San Francisco probably occurred in 1915, when she accompanied her widowed mother to the Panama- Pacific International Exposition, where Mrs. Hailey was a hostess in the Oregon Building. Evidently enthralled by the city, Miss Hailey returned to pursue art studies in 1917. By 1918 she had taken up residence. Her marriage to attorney Ernest Clewe was celebrated December 15, 1923, in San Francisco's Swedenborgian Church. For most of their married lives the Clewes lived in San Mateo.
Gene Hailey was listed as an artist with the Overland Publishing Company in the 1924 Saw Frawcisco City Directory, however, her contribution to Bay Area art activities seems to have been primarily literary. She wrote reviews of local art exhibitions for the Saw Fraw- cisco C^rowic/^ (1926-1927) and the Argws (1927-1928). Notice of her resignation from the C^rowic/c position appeared in the December 1927 issue of the Atgzzs and mentioned her plans to write for several Eastern art periodicals. Only one article has been located: a review of current decorative trends in California painting appeared in the Nerr 71wcs on August 4, 1929. Between then and 1936, when she was appointed chief editor of the California Art Research Project, her professional activities are unknown. During the early 1930s she was no doubt involved with the raising of her son, Thomas Hailey Clewe. Soon after the publication of Ca/z/brwM Art R ^arc^ , the Clewes moved to Oroville, California, where Genevieve Hailey Clewe died on November 8, 1939, at age forty-six.
Specific details about the publishing history of Gt/z/orwM Art R^sMrc/? are even more elusive than biographical information about its chief editors. The staff, which eventually numbered forty, included researchers, interviewers, writers, editors, typists, stenographers, proofreaders, photographers, and a librarian. Although the title CgJz/brwM Art R<?$Mrc suggests statewide coverage, financial and practical considerations limited the Project to artists whose principal residence was San Francisco. The first stage of work involved extensive research. Staff members consulted local libraries, museums and private collections for published sources, and also collected photographs of representative works, memorabilia, scrapbooks of clippings, and other archival materials. During interviews with artists and their families and associates, researchers used a prepared list of questions covering family, education in the U.S. and abroad, exhibition history, teaching experience, awards, prizes, commissions, and details about income, expenses, and—for living artists—work with relief agencies. The completed research and interview notes for each artist were used to write the biography. All supporting documentation was typed and deposited in individual files.
Gt/z/orMM Art Research was scheduled to take 13.2 months to complete. Concern that the work was not proceeding satisfactorily apparently prompted the reorganization of the Project. In a memorandum to the district director dated August 1, 1936, Dr. Sharp outlined a new work plan and reinforced the Project's primary objectives: 1) to produce a flow of good monographs relating to California artists; and 2) to help in every possible way to secure a better product by retraining the workers. Five editors were assigned to Gene Hailey. Two would continue work on the essays covering the well-known artists; another was to work on the monographs discussing the younger artists; and two would assist with general editorial duties. A research director was responsible for the material collected by the researchers and interviewers, and the business manager, Fred S. McFarland, handled all statistical data. A librarian supervised the clerical staff in the typing and filing of the supporting documentation.
Whether this organization differed significantly from that under Junius Cravens cannot be determined; however, the tone of the memo suggests that difficulties had been caused both by methods of collecting information and by a lack of discrimination in selecting pertinent data. AH researchers were to desist from copying articles "in toto"; they were to be assigned specific tasks, and they were to follow a simple outline to help procure only the essential information. Project workers were instructed to be as objective as possible and to pass neither moral judgement upon the lives of the artists nor aesthetic judgement upon then* work.All critical reviews used in the monographs would be selected by the research director. Gene Hailey, who had been supervising editor for only a few weeks, was expected to develop "a definite production program very soon." With the above organization Dr. Sharp felt that "a flow of monographs will be produced for general distribution." The staff apparently adjusted successfully to this new arrangement, for the first volumes began to appear in a few months.
While the precise dates of publication are unknown, the issue dates stamped on copies examined for this microfiche edition indicate that some volumes of Gr/z/brMM Art Research were released as early as December of 1936 and others as late as October of 1937. The original budget had provided for only one set of biographies, but in February of 1937 an additional $600 was allocated to cover the cost of one hundred copies of each biography. Although work on the Project was officially completed July 22, 1937, the Works Progress Administration saw to the final production details and distribution.^ The status of the monographs on August 3, 1937, as documented in "Report of Completed or Discontinued Project" was as follows:29 completed, mimeographed and distributed; 27 completed, mimeographed but not assembled or distributed;5 completed and stencilled; 17 typed and edited; 7 typed only. The City and County of San Francisco
H ISTO R IC A L ESSAY 0010viii
offered in August of 1937 to supply additional funds to complete the volumes, but the final accounting of the Project's costs (to May 31, 1938: $46,402.90) shows no record of any outside contributions.
In its final form Ca/t/orMM Art was published in twenty volumes with Volume 20 in two parts, to total nearly 3,000 pages. Each volume is bound in green paper and bears the words "California Art Research" and other identifying information stencilled on the front cover. A similar green sheet with the artist's name and dates and a photograph of a representative work serves as a cover to each biography. Variant cover designs have been noted: some have an outlined figure of an artist painting the title across the top; others show no evidence that a photograph was ever pasted to the green paper covers.
Other than copies retained for the Project files and those used for publicity, only sixty-six complete sets were distributed. The recipients, listed at the end1. The definitive study of California's contributions to WPA arts programs is the catalogue New Dea/ Art Ca/i/brwia, prepared by Lydia Modi Vitale for the exhibition at the de Saisset Art Gallery and Museum, University of Santa Clara, Santa Clara, from January 17 to June 15, 1976.
Steven M. Gelber's essay, "The New Deal and Public Art in California," is essential reading for those researching this period. Essays by Francis V. O'Connor, Charles Shere and Paul Hoffman survey the works produced for New Deal arts programs.
Information about nearly all of the Ca/i/ornia Art Research artists who worked on WPA projects will be found in this publication. Dr. Gelber compiled two useful guides to New Deal art in California: the "Community Guide" lists the artists and number of murals produced in 122 California cities, and the "Artist Guide" notes works produced by nearly 300 individuals working on WPA projects. For each piece, the "Artist Guide" gives the medium (covers painting, sculpture, murals, mosaic, and stained glass), title, location, sponsoring federal agency, date executed, and current status (extant or destroyed).
This 172-page catalogue includes a bibliography, checklist (288 exhibits), and numerous black-and-white illustrations.
Videotape documentation of New Deal art in California, including photographs of sites, works of art, and interviews with WPA artists, is available for scholarly reference at the de Saisset Art Gallery and Museum.
A later article by Steven M. Gelber, "Working to Prosperity: California's New Deal Murals" (Ca/i/ornia Histoiy, Vol. 58, no. 2, Summer, 1979, pp. 98-127) is an illustrated and extensively documented survey focusing on the mural projects.
Work relief programs administered by California's Division of Beaches and Parks are discussed in W.R.A. Artwork in the Ca/i/omia Rtate Rarh System, prepared by the Interpretive Services Section, Interpretive Collections Management Group, California State Department of Parks and Recreation (1979). Although none of the artists profiled in Ca/i/ornia Art Research were employed on these projects, this document is nevertheless an interesting study of a specific WPA program with useful information on procedures and personnel. Biographies and bibliographies are included for participating artists.
The "Bicentennial Souvenir Edition" of City o/Saw Francisco, "When Art Was Fun & Fabulous" (Vol. 10, no. 30, February 4, 1976), features essays on WPA arts projects in San Francisco with several splendid color reproductions of significant art works.
Masha Zakheim Jewett, daughter of Bernard Baruch Zakheim, discusses a prominent San Francisco landmark of the 1930s in
of Volume 20, Part 2, were all museum, public and university libraries. A second printing of the "First Series" of Ca/z/brMM Art Research, as the twenty volumes were identified, was considered, along with a "Second Series" of additional biographies, but neither was ever carried out7 The proposed volumes covering the history of art collecting in San Francisco and economic conditions pertaining to Bay Area artists also were never published, although data compiled for the latter study was in manuscript form in 1937.
Nevertheless, the publication of twenty volumes devoted to California art history was a considerable accomplishment, a fact noted in the laudatory reviews of the work appearing in the local press.^ Today, despite varying degrees of quality among the essays that make up Ca/t/brnia Art R^artrb, it still stands as a monumental and largely successful effort to explore the history of Northern California art through the biographies of its significant artists.^
her book Coir Tower, San Francisco. /ts History ami Art (San Francisco: Volcano Press, 1983). Biographies of several Ca/i/ornia Art Research artists are included in an appendix.2. Only one other federally sponsored art historical research project of this period is known to the editor: New Or/eans Artists, compiled by the Delgado Art Museum Project of the WPA.3. Details about the California Art Research Project are from the following sources: 1) interviews over the telephone and by letter with artists and others who recalled the Project's history;2) Ca/i/ornia Art Research, "Prefatory Note" and "Introduction," by Gene Hailey (Volume 1, pp. 1-12); "Note on Personnel," by Gene Hailey (Volume 1, pp. 104-5); "Acknowledgment" and "Distribution Agencies" (last three pages of Volume 20, Part 2);3) records of Official Project 65-03-3632, Work Project 2874, examined on approximately ninety frames of microfilm from the National Archives and Records Service, General Services Administration, Washington, D.C.
Francis V. O'Connor's "A Guide to New Deal Art Project Documentation" (in Federa/ Rapport /or the Visaa/ Arts. The New Dea/ and Now.

Records for California projects are noted under the "Inventory of the Records of the WPA Federal Art Project by State" (pp. 144-5).
A more recent publication, Richaxe and Pencil Re/erences /or the Rtady o / the WPA, compiled by Marguerite D. Bloxom (Washington, D.C.: Library of Congress, 1982), is an annotated bibliography covering all the WPA arts projects. Of particular interest are references to the whereabouts of WPA records and to post-1943 studies of regional arts projects.4.

In his memo of August, 1936, outlining the Project's reorganization, Dr. Sharp mentions research on John Gutzon Borglum. Gene Hailey in her "Introduction" makes note of work on the Moran family.8. On August 22, 1937 (p. D4), Alfred Frankenstein reported the publication of the first nine volumes in his regular column for the Saw Frawcisco C6rowic/c and lamented, as we do today, the anonymity of the biographical essays. The writers and rewrite editors noted in the "Acknowledgment" at the end of Volume 20, Part 2, are: Doris Adams, Dean Beshlich, Norman Bode, Florence Bradley, Gretchen Clark. Dorothy Ellis, Matthew Gately, Charles Hooker, Isabelle John, Lucille Larme, Marjorie Lee, Diane O'Connell, John Ruiz, Eddie Shimano, and Grant Wallace (died 1954). Only a few of these individuals can be linked to specific biographies. Ruth Cravath recalls that Isabelle John interviewed her; Robert Boardman Howard may have been interviewed by John Ruiz. The biographies of Theodore Wores and Maynard Dixon were written by Grant Wallace.
Other reviews of Ca/i/orwia Art Research appeared in the Saw Frawcisco CErowZc/e on March 14, 1937 (p. D6) and in Harry Noyes Pratt's column in the Sacrawtcwfo Fee on June 12, 1937 (p. 13).9. For general histories of California art, researchers will benefit from the informative interpretations and additional references contained in the following publications:

GUIDE TO THE SUPPLEMENTS
In this microfiche edition two separate features have been added to clarify and update the bibliographies prepared for the 1936/37 edition of Ca/z/braza Art P s?arcZz. The examples shown on the facing page and the explanation that follows will help the reader make the fullest use of the new material.
1. Following each original bibliography is a section headed IDENTIFICATION OF ORIGINAL SOURCES. A concise citation (standardized where possible) has been supplied for all sources in the original bibliographies that could be identified.
2. The SUPPLEMENTARY BIBLIOGRAPHY which completes each monograph includes verified birth and death dates, items published since 1936/37, and prior works not cited by the WPA writers.
Although not intended to be the definitive bibliographies for these artists, it is hoped that researchers will find them useful both in identifying the more elusive references from the original publication and in suggesting the types of sources one should consult for further information.
IDENTIFICATION OF ORIGINAL SOURCESAlthough the great number of citations prevented their individual verification and transcription, nearly all of the original sources have been identified. Identified sources are listed in the order in which they appear in the original Ca/z/oraza Art P^arc/z bibliography (see example on the facing page). The reader will find a full bibliographic citation for most monographs. For general and art reference works, newspapers, and periodicals, author and title are noted as applicable; for additional bibliographic information, reference is made to at least one of the seven publications listed below.
Users should be aware that the precise information consulted by the WPA compiler may be difficult to locate. The methods of bibliographic citation vary in quality and accuracy from volume to volume.Even though the source may in this edition be correctly identified, the page reference or edition statement in the original bibliography may be incorrect or missing. Sometimes the bibliographic information cited at the end of the essay is repeated in the text. A comparison of both citations will often clarify or further identify the reference.
Bracketed sources could not be identified for any of several reasons: the original citation is inaccurate or incomplete; the source is archival in nature and now unretrievable; or, quite simply, the reference is a bibliographic mystery awaiting another researcher's solution.
The seven publications used to identify selected monographs and reference books, newspapers, and periodicals, and upon which the standardized references are based, will provide a fuller bibliographic description of the work, its scope, and, in some cases, a list of libraries owning copies of the work.

A comprehensive collection of books, periodicals, and exhibition catalogues relating to California painters, sculptors, graphic artists, craftspeople, and photographers is supplemented by individual artist's files containing newspaper and periodical clippings, bibliographic citations, correspondence, research notes, reproductions and photographs, exhibition catalogues and announcements. Materials cover both nineteenth- and twentieth-century artists, with the Index of Contemporary Artists documenting more than 5,000 artists currently at work in California. Almost every Ca/z/brzzM Azt RfSMz-r/z artist is represented by an individual artist's file; however, only collections of unique archival materials have been noted in the "Supplementary Bibliographies." Although researchers may expect to locate cited material in the Archives of California Art Library, the Museum's collections of California art and the accompanying files are also useful.
Abbreviation: Oakland Museum]n addition to the five institutions hoiding archival material relating to the Cah/brtzM Art Research artists cited in the "Supplementary Bibliographies" (Nos. 52 through 56), the following libraries have reference files for many of the artists, as well as extensive holdings relating to California art in general:
Baird Archive of California Art. Department of Special Collections, University Library, University of California, Davis, California 95616. Assembled over many years by the noted art historian Dr. Joseph Armstrong Baird, Jr., the collection contains files covering all aspects of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century art in California with an emphasis on the arts (painting, sculpture, graphics, photography, and architecture) in Northern California. Sources include Dr. Baird's research notes and correspondence, exhibition catalogues, monographs, newspaper and journal clippings, photographs, and bibliographic citations. The research collection of Dr. Elliott Evans, particularly rich in early exhibition catalogues, bibliographic information, and photographs, has been integrated with the Baird materials. The GzzzWe to t/ze Bazrt? Archive o/Gt/z/brwM Art (1979) gives a summary of the Archive's organization and a list of the individual files found in each of the following major sections: Artists; Art Collections and Art Organizations; Exhibition Catalogues; Architecture; Reference.
San Francisco Art Institute. Anne Bremer Memorial Library and Archives. 800 Chestnut Street, San Francisco, California 94133. The library collection focuses on inter
national documentary art and is designed to support the curriculum of this prestigious art school. Contains books, exhibition catalogues, and periodicals, supplemented by an extensive media department with slides, photographs, films, and tapes. The archives of the San Francisco Art Institute preserves material relating to its predecessor, the San Francisco Art Association, with its teaching division, the California School of Design, later named the California School of Fine Arts. The minutes of the Board of Trustees and College Committees, by-laws, as well as membership, enrollment, and financial ledgers, document the history of this institution from the 1870s to date. The Archives of American Art has filmed a portion of these records. Individual artist and subject files contain correspondence, official reports, exhibition catalogues and announcements, newspaper and periodical clippings, reproductions, photographs, and assorted ephemera concerning the San Francisco Art Institute and Bay Area art activities.
San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Louise Sloss Ackerman Fine Arts Library. McAllister at Van Ness, San Francisco, California 94102. Although the special strength of the library is contemporary art, worldwide, it is a rich source for California artists, particularly those of the Bay Area during the 1920s and 1930s. Individual artist and subject files contain research notes, clippings, bibliographic citations, correspondence, exhibition catalogues and announcements, reproductions, and photographs. A fine book and periodicals collection supplements these archival materials.

ILLUSTRATIONS
The illustrations on this final microfiche have been reproduced at a reduction of 24x from the original photographs mounted in Ca/z/brwM Art R ^arc6 . The same pictures appear in their proper locations in the text, but those are reproduced from less accurate copy photographs. The original location of each picture is supplied at the top of the frame. The artists' name on the original sheets vary considerably, in some cases, from the more authoritative forms provided in this table of contents and elsewhere in this work.

0034THE HUNDRED ARTISTS
ofCa/i/orMM Arf Research
The following list of artists profiled in Ca/zybfMM Art Rcs^arc^ includes birth and death dates obtained from standard references, public records, the artists and their families, and other sources. When the available information was not sufficiently well documented, or the facts as known were contradictory, a plausible choice appears in brackets. The variant dates, with sources, as well as additional biographical information are noted in the "Supplementary Bibliographies" following each of the biographical essays on the microfiche. A question mark indicates that the artist's current whereabouts or date of death is not known. No final date means that the artist was alive as of 1 January 1987.
