Series Scope and Content Summary
This collection is made up of two distinct materials, awards and flags. The awards recognized contributions as an educator

Pisano served on the city committees for the celebration of both these events. Dr. Pisano's involvement with the San José
Bicentennial commission led to his co-founding of the nonprofit Italian American Heritage Foundation. Included in this collection

flags reflect Dr. Pisano's pride in his work and his heritage.
