Description: Photograph of Charles H. Allen, principal of the San Jose State Normal School from 1873-89.
Born in Mansfield, Pennsylvania, in 1828, Allen taught and had leadership roles in education in New York, Massachusetts, Wisconsin and Oregon before settling in San Jose. Poor health necessitated numerous breaks from working in education. During those times, he worked as a land surveyor, an expert cutler and, after retiring from education, was assistant postmaster in San Jose until his death. http://www.sjsu.edu/about_sjsu/history/presidents/
