Biography

Shepherd, Harry W, (1890-1965)
Harry Whitcomb Shepherd was born in 1890 in Massachusetts, but would later move to Monrovia, California. Shepherd received his B.S. in Landscape Engineering and Planning in 1914 from the University of California at Berkeley and was the first graduate of the newly established Landscape Department. Upon completing his course work at the University of California he worked as an assistant to the Los Angeles Beautification Committee. In 1915 Shepherd became an instructor at the Manual Arts High School in Los Angeles, California, teaching courses in landscape engineering and horticulture at the school until 1918.
Shepherd began his university teaching career at the University of California, Davis working as an instructor in the Division of Landscape Design from 1922-1925. He then moved to UCB, where he was an assistant professor until his retirement in 1955. Shepherd took a sabbatical leave from UCB in 1932, using the time to travel and study gardens in Europe.
Throughout his career as an instructor Shepherd wrote several articles and reports on the topic of horticulture and intermittently conducted an outside private practice. From 1925-1929 he was a landscape architect consultant and assistant to Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr. (Olmsted Brothers). Shepherd also designed and supervised the landscape developments for the Golden Gate International Exposition (1938-1939) and acted as a landscape consultant for the California Garden Show (1942, Oakland). Shepherd was an active member of the American Society of Landscape Architects, serving as president of the San Francisco chapter from 1941-1942.

Scope and Contents Note

The Harry W. Shepherd collection principally documents Shepherd's work as a horticulturist, instructor, and landscape architect. The collection is arranged in four series: Personal Papers, Professional Papers, Faculty Papers, and Project Records. Personal records are minimal, but include Shepherd's curriculum vitae. The bulk of the collection consists of professional papers such as writings, collected articles, plant photographs, and photographs of European gardens, collected during Shepherd's sabbatical leave from the University of California, Berkeley. Clippings and articles may have been used by Shepherd as reference material for his courses. Faculty papers include course materials and photographs of students and student work. Shepherd's landscape architecture projects are represented primarily in photographs, reports, and drawings. Shepherd was involved in numerous aspects of the landscape at the University of California, both Berkeley and Davis campuses.
