Descriptive Summary
Title:
Julia Morgan Papers 1835-1958 (bulk 1896-1945)
Collection number:
MS 10
Creator:
Morgan, Julia, 1872-1957
Abstract:
Julia Morgan practiced architecture in California during the first half of the twentieth century. A persistent misperception exists that she destroyed the records of her fifty-year practice when she retired in 1951. In fact, she carefully preserved original architectural drawings and plans, office records, photographs, correspondence, project files, student work, and personal papers, which were given to California Polytechnic State University by her heirs. More than twenty-seven additional donations of original Morgan materials have been given to Cal Poly by other donors, which are also included in this guide.
