Description
Frank Mead worked in the Hebbard and Gill office beginning about 1904. He and Gill formed a seven-month partnership in 1907, when the H & G partnership ended. Before joining the office, Mead, though trained as an architect, worked actively, and successfully, for the repatriation of lands to the Mohave-Apache (Yavapai) Indians in 1904. He was helped in his efforts by his friends: Charles Fletcher Lummis, the founder of the Landmarks Club and editor of Out West magazine; Natalie Curtis, ethnomusicologist of Indian songs and friend of Alice Klauber, Charles Douglas and Wheeler Bailey. Douglas and Bailey were sympathetic to the plight of displaced Native Americans and collected their art and crafts. While this house had gas lighting, there is a note on the plan regarding telephone service near the kitchen.
