Museum of the City of San Francisco
Gladys Hanson, Curator.
Created and maintained by museum curator Gladys Hanson, this site provides access to 11 major online exhibits on the history of California and San Francisco. Exhibits include the California Gold Rush of 1849; the San Francisco earthquakes of 1906 and 1989; the history of the San Francisco Fire Department; and the building of the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges. These online exhibits provide event timelines and links to over 200 primary documents and images in the museum’s collection, such as newspaper articles, diary entries, oral histories, photographs, political cartoons, and engravings. Images have brief descriptive captions (25–50 words). Two of the online exhibits are chronologies: one of events in San Francisco during World War II, and one of rock music in San Francisco, 1965 to 1969. The site also contains over 150 biographies of prominent San Franciscans under the categories of Arts and Entertainment; Business and Civic; Labor; Military; Political; Religious; and Sports. An easy to use site index is searchable alphabetically, by subject, or by year. Ideal for research on California and San Francisco history, particularly the Gold Rush and the earthquake of 1908.
