Charles Carpenter (1895-1966) was a member of the core faculty of the UCLA Medical School at the time of its founding. Carpenter
received his M.D. degree at Rochester in 1933, and his Master's degree in Public Health at the Johns Hopkins School of Public
Health in 1941. In 1947, Carpenter was appointed by Stafford Warren as Professor and Chairman of the Department of Infectious
Diseases in the new Medical School at UCLA. During his time at UCLA Carpenter contributed to the organization and design of
the Medical School, established research opportunities abroad for advanced students and faculty, and served as Chairman of
the Animal Care Committee. Upon retirement in 1962, Carpenter was appointed Research Oncologist in the School of Public Health
and continued to direct the Evelyn Castera Cancer Research Laboratory.
Record Series 636 contains photographs and a scrapbook assembled by Charles M. Carpenter. Photographs regard Carpenter's travels
and events at the newly formed School of Medicine at UCLA. The scrapbook features a selection of correspondence regarding
Carpenter's travels and work at the School of Medicine.
