Biography/Administrative History

Early Life, 1853-1873
Moses Hazeltine Sherman was born in West Rupert, Vermont on December 3, 1853. He spent his early years divided between the family farm in West Rupert and living with relatives in Salem, New York, six miles away. His father sometimes taught school, in addition to farming, so Sherman was following his father's lead when in 1869 he entered the Oswego Normal School to train as a teacher.
Sherman left Oswego before completing his studies, in 1871, to take his first teaching job in Wisconsin, but by 1873 returned to complete his course of study at Oswego. From 1873 and 1874, he served as the principal of Hamilton (New York) Union Grade School. However, he became ill in 1874, with what doctors thought was tuberculosis. A standard treatment at the time was to move to a warmer climate, so when the city of Prescott in the Arizona Territory needed a teacher, Sherman responded.
Arizona Period, 1874-1890
When Sherman arrived in 1875, Prescott was a frontier town of 2,000 people, dependent on nearby Fort Whipple for security. Sherman threw himself into the job of creating a first-class school. In little more than a year, he was able to convince Prescott voters to support a bond issue to replace the single-room schoolhouse with the Prescott Free Academy, a two-story brick building that included space for the Territorial government. Sherman’s success was such that the governor appointed him Superintendent of Public Instruction for the Territory in 1879. Sherman was subsequently elected to the office and served as Superintendent until 1883. In that same year, the Governor appointed him Adjutant General of Arizona, a position responsible for the state militia. The post came with the honorary title “General,” a moniker Sherman would use for the rest of his life.
Sherman’s political career in Arizona ended with his term as Adjutant General in 1887. Even as he served in government, he pursued a career in business, investing in mining and real estate at first. By 1883, he became one of the founders of the Valley National Bank, initially serving as its president. He built and operated the Phoenix Street Railway and gained a controlling interest in the Phoenix Water Works. Sherman was also a major real estate developer, subdividing land in the Phoenix. When the capital moved to Phoenix, Sherman donated the land for the new capital building, which not coincidentally adjoined land he owned and hoped to sell. By the late 1880s, Sherman boasted that he paid more taxes than anybody else did in the Territory. By 1890, he decided to move to Los Angeles, to further his business empire.
California, 1890-1932
Railroad Enterprises
Sherman arrived in Los Angeles in 1890 having already developed a street railway in Phoenix. Los Angeles had many small street railways, mostly horse-drawn cars. Sherman began acquiring these railways to create the first electrified street railway, the Los Angeles Consolidated Electric Railway. He built an extensive rail network in the heart of Los Angeles. Sherman faced determined competition from the Los Angeles Cable Railway. He ultimately forced the Cable Railway to merge with his company, but the fight was costly. By 1895, the Los Angeles Consolidated Electric could not meet its obligation to the company’s bondholders. In 1897, a group of bondholders, led by Henry Huntington, acquired the company. Sherman was undeterred, abandoning the street railway to develop intercity lines stretching east to Pasadena and west to the ocean.
In 1895, Sherman began work on the first interurban rail line in Southern California – the Pasadena Pacific Railway. This railway was the first step in a plan to lay rails west, through what is now Hollywood and on to Santa Monica and the south along the coast. The culmination of this work was the Los Angeles Pacific Railway (LAP). The Los Angeles Pacific was more than just a means of moving people and goods. Sherman recognized the value of the railway in promoting the region in general and in selling land that he owned in particular. Sherman and his brother-in-law E. P. Clark were partners in both the Los Angeles Pacific and in land development. The two men had significant land holdings in Hollywood, what is now the west side of Los Angeles and Playa del Rey – all accessible from the LAP.
In 1908, Sherman struck a deal with the Southern Pacific Railroad to sell a majority stake in his company. He and E. P. Clark remained in charge of day-to-day management. Then in 1911, the Southern Pacific forced the Great Merger, buying outright the Los Angeles Pacific and Henry Huntington’s interurban lines to form the Pacific Electric “Red Car” system. From 1911 onward, Sherman began to focus on the development of land holdings, including the subdivision of the San Fernando Valley, the development of a vast ranch in the Mexicali Valley and the Tejon Ranch.
Board of Water Commissioners
Sherman served on the Board of Water Commissioners for the City of Los Angeles from 1903-1910. During those years, he and his fellow commissioners worked with William Mulholland to bring water to the city from the Owens Valley via the 200-mile Los Angeles Aqueduct. In 1910, Sherman was forced to resign from the Commission when his political opponents charged him with conflict of interest because he was a partial owner of the building in which the Commission rented space.
Real Estate Enterprises
In 1910, Sherman, Harrison Gray Otis, Harry Chandler, Otto F. Brant, and Hobart J. Whitley bought 47,500 acres of the San Fernando Valley for $2.5 million from Isaac Van Nuys. The group formed the Los Angeles Suburban Homes Company, selling 30 shares to fellow investors, but retaining leadership of the company as the Board of Control. Over the next several years, the Company created three new communities: Van Nuys, Owensmouth (now Canoga Park) and Marion (now Reseda). The company sold other sections of the huge tract of land to shareholders at a discounted price. One such tract of 1,000 acres became “Sherman’s Ranch.” In 1927, Sherman entered an agreement with real estate promotors Thomas Bundy and Charles Albright to create a new community, named Sherman Oaks.
Even as Sherman, Chandler and Otis were subdividing the southern half of the San Fernando Valley, they sought additional land holdings. In 1912, the group purchased the 275,000-acre Tejon Ranch for $3 million. Sherman and his partners raised cattle and sheep on the ranch, leased land to farmers and benefited from the discovery of oil on the ranch. In 1936, the ranch incorporated as the Tejon Ranch Company. Tejón Ranch remains the largest single privately held property in California.
In 1903, Harrison Gray Otis and a group of investors began buying land in Imperial Valley and northern Mexico to form the Colorado River Land Company (CRLC). While Sherman was not an initial investor, by the 1920s was one of the principle investors in CRLC. The Company owned over 840,000 acres of land in the Imperial and Mexicali Valleys including much of the delta of the Colorado River. Irrigation canals operated by the Company controlled water entering Northern Mexico and the Imperial Valley in the United States. While the Company initially focused on raising cattle, eventually growing cotton became the Company’s principle business. The company also leased land to farmers.
In 1922, Sherman organized the Hollywoodland syndicate to subdivide a section of the Hollywood hills, which he and his brother-in-law E. P. Clark owned. Sherman and Clark joined with Harry Chandler, publisher of the Los Angeles Times, and developers Tracey Shoults and Sydney H. Woodruff to create the Hollywoodland subdivision. While the business venture had limited success, it resulted in one of the world’s iconic symbols – the Hollywood sign.
Personal Life
During his time in Arizona, Sherman married Henrietta “Hattie” Pratt and the couple had two daughters, Hazeltine and Lucy. When Sherman moved to Los Angeles in 1890, he and his wife separated. Hattie, Hazeltine and Lucy eventually moved to a home in San Francisco. Sherman lived for many years in the Westminster Hotel in downtown Los Angeles. The couple divorced in 1907. Sherman remained close to his daughters, establishing trusts to support them after his death. He never remarried.
Sherman’s circle of friends were his business associates and their families. He was particularly close with Harry Chandler, whom he often addressed as “HC.” The two would often play dominoes on Sunday evenings. He was also close to his brother-in-law E. P. Clark and developer R. C. Gillis. These men and other friends would retreat to Tejon Ranch or into Mexico for extended camping trips to escape the pressures of business. Sherman also regularly attended the Bohemian Grove “jinks,” a gathering of influential men in the Northern California sequoias.
In the final years of his life, Sherman suffered a growing number of health problems. Arnold Haskell took over most of the day-to-day management of Sherman’s businesses by the mid-1920s. In failing health, Sherman moved to a home on Bay Island, in Newport Harbor. On September 9, 1932, “The General” passed away at the age of 78.

B) Letters Sent

 

1) Letter Books, 1888-1929

Scope and Content Note

This series consists of 23 letter books primarily containing copies of letters sent by M. H. Sherman to business associates, family, and friends. The letters are generally typewritten, often with Sherman’s signature and a post salutation note. A limited number of the letters were written on Sherman’s behalf by his employees. The books include a few copies of incoming correspondence, primarily to document financial transactions. The letters contained in these books are arranged in rough chronological order. Many of the letters are annotated with the page number of the previous letter from the letters addressee.
The subjects of these letters cover the full range of Sherman’s business activities, participation in politics, social life, and family matters. Among the most frequent subjects are the financing and development of Sherman’s railway lines, including the Phoenix Street Railway, the Los Angeles Consolidated Electric Railway, the Los Angeles and Pasadena Electric Railway, and the Los Angeles Pacific Railway. In the post-World War I period, Sherman also wrote often regarding the Los Angeles Steamship Company. The purchase, sale, maintenance and subdivision of land is another frequent subject of Sherman’s letters. These land projects include the subdivision of the southern half of the San Fernando Valley through the Los Angeles Suburban Homes Company, including the creation of Sherman Oaks, the Colorado River Land Company, Tejon Ranch, Playa del Rey, and the Hollywoodland development. Many letters reflect Sherman's interest in Republican politics.
Among his business colleagues Sherman frequently wrote to were Harrison Gray Otis and Harry Chandler, both associated with the Los Angeles Times; Otto F.

C) Correspondence with Key Business Associates, 1914-1932

Scope and Content Note

Starting in 1914, Sherman retained both incoming letters and copies of letters sent for a number of key business associates. These include T. J. Brown, manager of Tejon Ranch; Harry Chandler, manager and later publisher of the Los Angeles Times; Robert C. Gillis, a real estate developer and close business confidant; Arnold Haskell, Sherman's personal assistant; and S. F. Mitchell, who managed Sherman's Arizona business interest, including the operation of the Phoenix Railway Company.
The letters in this series cover a broad range of business and social activities. The Harry Chandler correspondence files include an almost daily correspondence between the two men touching on the broad range of business projects, including Tejon Ranch, the Colorado River Land Company. and the sale of San Fernando Valley property jointly owned by the two men. The correspondence also includes references to social affairs. Many of Chandler's letters forward third party materials for Sherman's reference. The files for Arnold Haskell document every aspect of Sherman's business operations. Haskell was Sherman's most trusted employee and associate, who managed much of Sherman's business concerns in the years before Sherman's death.

D) Correspondence with Family

Scope and Content Note

The first portion of this series (boxes 80-83) are photocopies from the Letter Books to family members, filed by correspondence. Most files are annotated with an explanation of the correspondent's relationship to Sherman. The balance of the series includes letter received from family members. The most frequent writer was Hazeltine Sherman Keever, Sherman's daughter. Most of the letters are undated and are currently unarranged.
NB: Until about 1883, Sherman maintained family letters with other correspondence. As a consequence, these letters can be found in the Letters Received series. After about 1883, Sherman maintained family letters separately from other correspondence.

XII) Fiscal Records

 

A) Income Tax Records, 1916-1934

Scope and Content Note

This series includes tax forms, correspondence, and appraisals relating to Sherman's Federal taxes. The audit files include descriptions of Sherman's business transactions, and sometime providing extensive explanations of his business operations. A major subject is the value of land Sherman purchased before 1913. The Internal Revenue Service audits accused Sherman of overstating the value of his land in 1913 (the year the 16th Amendment to the Constitution was passed, authorizing income tax) to reduce his taxes. The series includes appraisal reports Sherman commissioned of his San Fernando Valley holdings and Clark and Sherman Land Company holdings to contest these ruling.

B) Stock and Bond Certificates, 1888-1909

Scope and Content Note

Most of stock and bond certificates in this series include those for companies which Sherman founded or controlled, including the Phoenix Water Works, Valley Street Railroad, and the Phoenix Street Railroad. Other stock certificates were apparently given to Sherman as collateral on loans he extended to individuals. A single file contains records of the transfer of stock certificates.

D) Cancelled Checks, 1879-1932

Scope and Content Note

This series includes cancelled checks from a variety of banks in which Sherman maintained accounts. In most cases, the cancelled checks were glued back into the original checkbook, which include stubs on which the payee and reason for the check were record. For the period prior to 1913, when Sherman did not keep detailed accounting records, these checks can be the best source of information about financial transactions.
