Biographical Note
American astronomer and educator, founder of the science of dendrochronology. Associated
with the Harvard College Observatory, 1889-1894, and its expedition to Peru; as well as
the Lowell Observatories in Flagstaff, Arizona, 1894-1901, and Mexico, 1896-1897. At the
University of Arizona, Tucson, 1906-1962; served as professor, dean and acting
president, first director of the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research, and also the Steward
Observatory.
Scope and Content Note
Chiefly materials related to A.E. Douglass' astronomical and tree-ring research, and
administraiton, at the Harvard College Observatory, Lowell Observatories, Steward
Observatory, Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research, and University of Arizona. Includes
scientific records; clippings; photographs of astronomical images, observatories, and
tree-rings; typescripts of speeches and manuscripts; his published articles; reprints of
articles by others; and lecture notes. Correspondence with other scientists includes
William Henry Pickering, Percival Lowell, Godfrey Sykes, and Edmund Schulman. Personal
correspondence is with his wife Ida Whittington Douglass, and other family members and
friends. Drafts, proofs, and final editions, (1919-1936) from of his book Climatic
Cycles and Tree Growth. Involvement with scientific organizations such as the Carnegie
Institution, 1918-1938, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science,
1919-1950, is documented; as are his scholarly contributions to conferences. Personal
items cover his childhood and his student days at Trinity College, Hartford, 1885-1889;
travels to other countries; and participation in numerous civic and Masonic groups. An
unpublished biography of Douglass by David Brinegar is present. Photographs, mainly
black-and-white, some cyanotype, depict professional and social activities, personal
life, and travels. The South American photographs from the 1890s include Inca ruins in
Bolivia, topical views of Chile, and the Harvard College Observatory in Arequipa, Peru.
Over ninety 16mm and 35mm silent films, shot by Andrew Ellicott Douglass from 1929 to
1950, document Douglass's research activities, as well as personal activities and
travel. The sixth series is audio-visual materials and is divided into four sub-series:
photographs and negatives, color slides, motion picture film, and sound recordings.
Additional photographs can be found in the series, Research Files. Films in box 182 have
been placed in cold storage due to fragile condition.
Several items have been restricted. Please see the container list for more details. Use
of original audiovisual materials is restricted due to their fragile nature. The motion
picture films in this collection have been digitized for research access. Some films
have been restricted due to culturally sensitive content. Please contact Special
Collections for more information.

These boxes focus on the period from Dr. Douglass's arrival at the University in
1906 to 1937/38, when he became Director of the newly-established Laboratory of
Tree Ring Research and relinquished the active headship of Steward Observatory to
Dr. Edwin Carpenter. During these years he was teacher, head of the Astronomy
Department, acting University President, Dean of the College of Letters, Arts and
Sciences, and Director of Steward Observatory.
With but one important exception, no attempt has been made to segregate this
material into sub-categories, or even to separate his correspondenc with other
observatories or astronomers, because it is so inter-woven--both administratively
and professionally. The exception, however, is the removal of all correspondence
and material relating to his research on tree rings--a monumental endeavor carried
on concurrently with all his other duties and activities. This material is so
voluminous and specialized that it has been arranged separately, and will be found
in boxes 64-84. Therefore, the user should remain aware that a large body of
correspondence for this period (1908-1938) of Dr. Douglass's university years is
filed elsewhere.
The designation "correspondence" has been employed rather freely, for included
also are personal notes pertaining to administration, official University
communications from various offices, programs of University events attended by Dr.
Douglass, and some clippings relating to University matters.
Because budgets and annual reports of the Department of Astronomy and Steward
Observatory were inter-related and often made jointly, they have been placed
together.

Dr. Douglass acquired a large number of reprints and miscellaneous publications
on various scientific subjects. He also clipped articles from periodicals.
Those items which came to Special Collections have been retained here for two
reasons: many were written by associates, students, distinguished scientists
with whom he corresponded, and all of them reflect his special interests in the
fields of both astronomy and meteorology.
They have been grouped into rather broad subjects, arranged alphabetically,
but no attempt has been made to list them by author or date.

subject matter, and are as follows: ARCH (archaeology), ASTR (astronomy), GEOL
(geology), LTRR (Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research), MISC (miscellaneous). The
majority of the films are in black and white, two are in color. DVD preservation
copies of selected films are housed in box 184. 16mm and DVD preservation copies
were created in 2011 with a grant from the National Film Preservation Foundation.
One folder of notes in Box 184 includes notations from A.E. Douglass on content
and technical specifications of films, as well as descriptive notes on films from
LTRR staff. Use of original audio visual materials is restricted due to their
fragile nature. Some of the motion picture films in this collection have been
digitized for research access. Films in box 182 have been placed in cold storage
due to fragile condition. Please contact Special Collections for more information.
The films document Douglass's broad professional undertakings, including the beam
expeditions of 1929 that uncovered Beam HH-39, a specimen from the Show Low
archaeological site in Navajo County, Arizona. The beam allowed Douglass to apply
dendrochronology in accurately dating ancient indigenous settlement sites to the
13th century, and track cultural development in the desert Southwest. Further
films document the panoramic chronology that Douglass developed based on the
tree-ring record, as well as techniques associated with taking, reading, and
cross-dating tree-ring samples. Some of these films were shot on Ancestral
Puebloan sites and tribal lands.
PLINT films document the function of the Planetary Interpolator—a machine that
A.E. Douglass invented in order to determine the alignment of planets at any
calendar date. Cycloscope (also known as the periodograph or cyclograph) films
record use of a photographic device developed by Douglass to track correlating
patterns between the climatic and solar records and the tree ring record. The
films designated as MISC record sites in Tucson, Arizona, as well as Douglass's
travels in New Mexico, Montana, Vermont, and multiple sites in Europe from the
late 1920s through the 1940s.
Notable colleagues of Douglass featured in these films include: Harold S. Colton,
Lyndon L. Hargrave, Emil W. Haury, Edgar L. Hewett, Neil M. Judd, William H.
Pickering, and Edmund Schulman.
The motion picture films in this collection have been digitized for research
access with support from a Recordings at Risk grant from the Council on Library
and Information Resources (CLIR). The grant program is made possible by funding
from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The digitized films can be viewed in the
online exhibit, accessible at: The Films of
Andrew Ellicott Douglass: Astronomer, Archaeologist, and Father of Tree-Ring
