SUMMARY:FRANK Talks: School Choice in Arizona - Tucson
DESCRIPTION:School Choice in Arizona\nDr. Angelina Castagno\, Northern Arizona University\, Educational Foundations \nArizona is one of the nation’s most “choice friendly” states regarding educational opportunities at the K-12 level. “School choice” is a term for K–12 schooling options in the U.S. describing a wide array of alternatives to public schools\, including charter schools. The expansion of charter schools and vouchers (often called educational savings accounts) is not without controversy. Does school choice improve school quality? Does school choice increase educational opportunity for all students? Has school choice fostered the privatization of education in the U.S.? Join us for a FRANK Talk about the policy and practical implications of school choice.

SUMMARY:Arizona: Land of the Water Haves and Water Have-nots - Phoenix
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, June 6 \n6:00 – 8:00 p.m. \nArizona Humanities \n1242 N. Central Avenue – Phoenix\, AZ 85004 \nArizona: Land of the Water Haves and Water Have-nots \n“Water certainty\,” that is\, a resilient\, long-term water supply\, is crucial to our prosperity and quality of life. Yet\, some communities in the state lack water certainty. These communities may be extra vulnerable to shortages. They may lack access to water for basic needs. And they have little control over the stewardship of their water resources. Sarah Porter from the Kyl Center for Water Policy at Arizona State University’s Morrison Institute for Public Policy will discuss the underpinnings of water uncertainty and policy reforms to address the problem. \nSarah Porter is the inaugural director of the Kyl Center for Water Policy at Arizona State University’s Morrison Institute for Public Policy. Established in 2014\, the Kyl Center promotes research\, analysis\, collaboration and open dialogue to build consensus in support of sound water stewardship solutions for Arizona and the West. Sarah also serves as deputy director of Future H2O\, an initiative to focus ASU’s water expertise on solving current world water challenges\, local and global. \nSarah came to the Kyl Center from the National Audubon Society\, where she served as the Arizona state director and led Audubon’s Western Rivers Project\, a multistate initiative to protect and restore important river habitats in the Intermountain West. As deputy director of Audubon Arizona\, Sarah was a key team member in the effort to launch the Nina Mason Pulliam Rio Salado Audubon Center\, a nature education center located in a restored riparian habitat in South Phoenix. \nFree Event!

SUMMARY:Hydrology and Water Resources 101 - Bisbee
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, May 22 \n5:30 – 7:00 p.m. \nCopper Queen Library \n6 Main St\, Bisbee\, AZ 85603 \nHydrology and Water Resources 101 with Victoria Hermosilla \nAs we move into the 21st century\, our water resources and management will need to become more adaptive under the pressures of population growth and less predictable weather patterns.  This interactive and discussion-based presentation covers the water cycle\, surface water and groundwater basics with considerations of water usage as it relates water & energy and water & food.  Victoria will also provide access to groundwater models and other informational displays. \nVictoria Hermosilla was born on a small ranch in southern California with five wells that frequently went dry\, and discussions of rain\, drought\, and everything in between. This constant water awareness continued when she moved to Arizona in 2006.  She earned an associate’s of science at Cochise Community College then a bachelor’s degree in Hydrogeology from Northern Arizona University. She began working for Clear Creek Associates in 2012 as a field hydrologist where the majority of her work was with the mines and their groundwater contamination challenges.  When she wasn’t working in the field\, she spent some time volunteering with Watershed Management Group assisting fellow citizens install passive and active rainwater harvesting features. She was inspired to come back to school for a master’s degree after hearing Dr. Tom Meixner speak at the 2015 Arizona Hydrological Symposium. Her initial interest in water stems from her experiences and geography; her continued interest in water stems from not only a desire to have job security\, but also to help her community and her country. Her goal is to one day lead the Arizona Department of Water Resources and contribute to the solutions of future. \n

SUMMARY:Life on the Lazy B as Lived by an American Cowboy and Rancher - Payson
DESCRIPTION:In 1880\, Alan Day’s grandfather homesteaded the Lazy B ranch.  This dusty dry tract of land produced a Supreme Court Justice\, a lauded Arizona state senator\, and a career rancher\, cowboy\, and land conservationist. Alan explores the ranching and cowboying life from the chuck wagon years of his childhood\, through his adult years of increasing bureaucracy\, airplanes\, computers and now even drones. At the heart of his stories lie adventures that most of us will never experience\, as well as a deep love of the natural world. \nIf it is possible to say someone can be born a cowboy\, then Alan Day was born one. He was the third generation to grow up on the 200\,000-acre Lazy B cattle ranch straddling the high deserts of southern Arizona and New Mexico. After graduating from the University of Arizona\, Alan returned to manage Lazy B for the next 40 years\, during which time he received awards for his dedication to land stewardship. In addition to co-authoring with his sister\, Sandra Day O’Connor\, the New York Times bestselling memoir Lazy B\, Alan also is the author of The Horse Lover: A Cowboy’s Quest to Save the Wild Mustangs and Cowboy Up: Life Lessons from Lazy B.

SUMMARY:Specters of the Past: Arizona’s Ghost Towns - Cottonwood
DESCRIPTION:The promise of unimagined riches is what brought many of the earliest colonizers to the Arizona Territory. Following the trail to the discovery of the mother lode\, they built\, then dismantled and finally abandoned communities when mines played out – leaving behind tantalizing clues of difficult hardships. Some towns survived like Bisbee\, Jerome\, Tombstone and Oatman. Most disappeared\, gradually becoming absorbed back into the desert from which they arose. This presentation explores more than a decade of historian Jay Mark’s journeys to these fascinating ghost places\, along with their stories – long-forgotten places like Charleston\, Contention City\, Mowry\, Fairbank\, Gleeson and Congress. \nHistorian Jay Mark’s career includes antiques and bookstore owner\, commercial photography\, professional theater\, radio and television. He brings a lifetime of knowledge and experience to his lively and engaging presentations. A regular contributor of history-related articles to the Antique Register\, Arizona Contractor and Community\, and The Arizona Republic\, Jay is also a published writer of seven antiques-related books. He is co-author of a history of the Buckhorn Baths in Mesa. A recipient of numerous awards honoring his service to the community\, Jay remains actively engaged in issues relating to historic preservation\, history museums\, public transportation\, urban planning and public policy.

SUMMARY:Armed with Our Language\, We Went to War:  The Navajo Code Talkers - Bullhead City
DESCRIPTION:During WWII a select group of young Navajo men enlisted in the Marines with a unique weapon. Using the Navajo language\, they devised a secret code that the enemy never deciphered.  For over 40 years a cloak of secrecy hung over the Code Talker’s service until the code was declassified and they were finally honored for their military contributions in the South Pacific by Presidents Reagan\, Bush\, and the Navajo Nation. The Code Talkers’ cultural background\, how the code was devised and used\, photos\, and how Navajo spiritual beliefs were used to treat post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) form this presentation. \nLaura Tohe is Diné/Navajo.  She is Sleepy Rock clan born for the Bitter Water clan. A librettist and an award-winning poet\, she has written 3 books of poetry\, edited a book of Native American Women writing\, and the oral history book\, Code Talker Stories.

SUMMARY:Arizona Goes to the Moon - Phoenix
DESCRIPTION:Arizona played a key role in preparing to send humans to the moon in the late 1960s/early 1970s. The Apollo astronauts themselves traveled to the Grand Canyon and volcanic fields around the state to learn geology and practice their lunar excursions. Meanwhile\, U.S. Geological Survey engineers worked with NASA staff members to develop and test instruments while artists joined forces with scientists to create detailed maps of the moon that were critical to navigating around lunar surface. \nKevin Schindler is an award-winning educator and writer who has worked for more than 20 years at Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff. He was sheriff of the Flagstaff Corral of Westerners for 14 years and a board member of the Flagstaff Festival of Science for 16 years. Combining a dual passion for history and science\, he has presented hundreds of educational programs\, authored four books\, written more than 400 magazine and newspaper articles\, and contributes a bi-weekly astronomy column for the Arizona Daily Sun.

SUMMARY:Cowpokes\, Crooks\, and Cactus: Arizona in the Movies - Winslow
DESCRIPTION:Tyrone Power\, Andy Devine\,  Katy Jurado\, Steve McQueen and\, of course\, John Wayne. From the earliest days of film\, Arizona has been a setting and subject for hundreds of films. Some\, like Junior Bonner and Red River\, are considered classics\, others\, such as Billy Jack and Evolution\, surely less so. Some may even be classics in the making\, from Tombstone to Near Dark. In this entertaining talk\, Gregory McNamee\, a frequent contributor on film to the Encyclopaedia Britannica and former columnist for the Hollywood Reporter\, looks at the Grand Canyon State on the silver screen. \nGregory McNamee is a writer\, editor\, photographer\, and publisher. He is the author of forty books and of more than five thousand articles and other publications. He is a contributing editor to the Encyclopædia Britannica\, a research fellow at the Southwest Center of the University of Arizona\, and a lecturer in the Eller School of Management\, also at the University of Arizona.

SUMMARY:FRANK Talks: Is Incarceration the Best Approach to Address Criminal Behavior? - Chandler
DESCRIPTION:Is Incarceration the Best Approach to Address Criminal Behavior? \nJulian Kunnie\, University of Arizona\, Religious Studies/Classics/Africana Studies/Indigenous/Globalization Studies \nIn 2017\, 47\,604 people were either incarcerated or under some form of criminal justice supervision in the state of Arizona\, with 119 adults/54 minors on death row\,  and 2\,485 veterans serving prison time. The U.S. represents 5% of the world’s population\, yet holds 25% of the world’s prisoners.  We incarcerate people for non-violent and substance abuse-related crimes.  Private-for-profit prisons in Arizona and the country are a lucrative industry\, viewed by some as contributing to the rise in incarceration.  What economic\, political and social factors play a role in today’s mass incarceration?  Do poverty\, race and class contribute to the disproportionate imprisonment of the poor and people of color? Does incarceration rehabilitate people who are incarcerated? Is imprisonment the best solution to address criminal behavior?  Join us for this FRANK Talk on the impact of mass incarceration.

SUMMARY:Arizona’s Wild Myths and Legends - Chandler
DESCRIPTION:Wyatt Earp\, Billy the Kid and John Wayne: what do these famous characters have in common? They are not who we think they are because of the legends that have grown up around them. From the 1860’s dime novels to the books\, movies\, and television shows\, writers have altered\, exaggerated and sometimes lied about these folk heroes.  In “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance\,” the editor says\, “When the legend becomes fact\, print the legend.” We will examine how the legends grew and how they impact how we view the past\, act in the present\, and build the future. \nBefore retiring from the Arizona Historical Society\, Jim Turner worked with more than 70 museums in every corner of the state. He is co-author of the 4th-grade textbook The Arizona Story\, and his pictorial history book\, Arizona: Celebration of the Grand Canyon State\, was a 2012 Southwest Books of the Year selection. Jim moved to Tucson in 1951\, earned a M.A. in U.S. history from the University of Arizona\, and has been researching and teaching Arizona history for more than 40 years. Jim is now an author/editor for Rio Nuevo Publishers\, author of The Mighty Colorado from the Glaciers of the Gulf (2016) and Crater Lake and Beyond (2017).

SUMMARY:The Woman Who Shot Cowboys: Rodeo Photographer Louise L. Serpa - Tucson
DESCRIPTION:Anyone who has ever stared down an angry bull coming full throttle across an arena will understand why rodeo photographer Louise Serpa often uttered the adage\, “Never Don’t Pay Attention.” Born into New York society\, Louise ended up out west with her nose buried in the dirt & her eye glued to a camera\, becoming the first woman to venture inside the arena and shoot some of the most amazing photographs of rodeo action. The dust and dirt of the rodeo became Louise’s lifeblood for almost 50 years. This PowerPoint program demonstrates the courage and resolute of a woman determined to decide her own fate while ascending to the highest pinnacles of rodeo photography. \nAward-winning author\, historian\, and lecturer Jan Cleere writes extensively about the Southwest desert\, particularly about the people who first settled the territory. She graduated from ASU with a degree in American Studies and is the author of five historical nonfiction books about the people who first settled in the Southwest desert. She lectures around the state about early pioneers who were instrumental in settling and civilizing the territory of Arizona. Jan writes a monthly column for Tucson’s Arizona Daily Star\, “Western Women\,” detailing the lives of some of Arizona’s early amazing women. Her freelance work appears in national and regional publications.

SUMMARY:The Earliest Apache in Arizona: Evidence and Arguments - Prescott
DESCRIPTION:How did the Apache impact late prehistoric peoples? Research provides evidence of ancestral Apaches in the southern Southwest as early as A.D. 1300. Evidence comes from chronometric dates obtained from storage features (covered with grass or leaves)\, on Apache pottery\, and from roasting pits\, all in direct association with other types of Apache material culture. A continuous sequence of use from the A.D. 1300s through the late 1700s provides new insights into a western route into this region and the presence of the earliest ancestral Apache three centuries earlier than previously thought\, even in areas where Coronado did not see them. \nDr. Seymour is an internationally recognized authority on protohistoric\, Native American\, and Spanish colonial archaeology and ethno-history. For 30 years\, she has studied the Apache\, Sobaipuri O’odham\, and lesser-known mobile groups. She has excavated Spanish presidios\, numerous Kino-period missions\, and several indigenous sites. She works with indigenous groups\, tackles the Coronado and Niza expeditions\, and is reworking the history of the pre-Spanish and colonial period of the Southwest.

SUMMARY:African American Art\, Fort Huachuca\, and World War II - Oro Valley
DESCRIPTION:Fort Huachuca\, in Sierra Vista\, is the surprising site of a remarkable story of African American art during World War II. Central to the chronicle is Arizona painter Lew Davis. The base was home to two black divisions\, and Davis painted murals for the two segregated officers’ clubs. For the black officers’ club\, Davis produced something stunningly original: The Negro in America’s Wars\, which represented African American participation in the Revolution\, the War of 1812\, the Civil War\, and World War I. Davis then produced a series of morale-building posters with African American faces. Finally\, Davis helped organized an exhibition of eighty-six works by thirty-seven African American artists. Betsy Fahlman will cover the works and contributions of Arizona painter Lew Davis in this session. \nBetsy Fahlman is Professor of Art History at Arizona State University. An authority on the art history of Arizona\, her books include New Deal Art in Arizona (2009) and The Cowboy’s Dream: The Mythic Life and Art of Lon Megargee (2002). She is the author of two essays in catalogues published in 2012 by the Museum of Northern Arizona in Flagstaff: “New Women\, Southwest Culture: Arizona’s Early Art Community” (in Mary-Russell Ferrell Colton: Artist and Advocate in Early Arizona) and “Making the Cultural Desert Bloom: Arizona’s Early Women Artists” (in Arizona’s Pioneering Women Artists: Impressions of the Grand Canyon State).

SUMMARY:Cowpokes\, Crooks\, and Cactus: Arizona in the Movies - Cottonwood
DESCRIPTION:Tyrone Power\, Andy Devine\,  Katy Jurado\, Steve McQueen and\, of course\, John Wayne. From the earliest days of film\, Arizona has been a setting and subject for hundreds of films. Some\, like Junior Bonner and Red River\, are considered classics\, others\, such as Billy Jack and Evolution\, surely less so. Some may even be classics in the making\, from Tombstone to Near Dark. In this entertaining talk\, Gregory McNamee\, a frequent contributor on film to the Encyclopaedia Britannica and former columnist for the Hollywood Reporter\, looks at the Grand Canyon State on the silver screen. \nGregory McNamee is a writer\, editor\, photographer\, and publisher. He is the author of forty books and of more than five thousand articles and other publications. He is a contributing editor to the Encyclopædia Britannica\, a research fellow at the Southwest Center of the University of Arizona\, and a lecturer in the Eller School of Management\, also at the University of Arizona.

SUMMARY:Vintage Arizona: The Growth\, Death\, and Rebirth of a Local Wine Industry - Sedona
DESCRIPTION:Arizona’s wine industry is booming. Starting from almost nothing in the 1970s\, there are now over 50 wineries across the state and more starting every year.  Despite the youth of the current industry\, there is a long history of wine-making in Arizona dating back some 200 years. Using numerous illustrations\, this presentation traces the fascinating – and often amusing – story of Arizona wine from the Spanish Colonial period to the present.  Topics include pioneering efforts using wild grapes\, Mesa’s forgotten 19th century wine industry\, the illegal raisin wineries of the Great Depression\, and the unlikely band of aspiring winemakers that led the modern rebirth of Arizona wine in the 1980s. \nErik Berg is an award-winning historian and writer with a special interest in the early twentieth century southwest.  Raised in Flagstaff\, and a graduate of the University of Arizona\, Berg has been exploring\, hiking\, and researching the southwest for over thirty years.  In addition to contributing to several books and numerous conferences\, his work has appeared in the Journal of Arizona History\, Arizona Highways\, Astronomy\, the Journal of the Society of Commercial Archaeology\, and Sedona Magazine.  A past-president of the Grand Canyon Historical Society\, Berg currently lives in Phoenix.

SUMMARY:Set in Stone but Not in Meaning: Southwestern Indian Rock Art - Phoenix
DESCRIPTION: Ancient Indian pictographs (rock paintings) and petroglyphs (symbols carved or pecked on rocks) are claimed by some to be forms of writing for which meanings are known. However\, are such claims supported by archaeology or by Native Americans themselves? Mr. Dart illustrates southwestern petroglyphs and pictographs\, and discusses how even the same rock art symbol may be interpreted differently from popular\, scientific\, and modern Native American perspectives.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistered Professional Archaeologist Allen Dart has worked in Arizona and New Mexico since 1975. He is a state cultural resource specialist/archaeologist for the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service and volunteer director of Tucson’s Old Pueblo Archaeology Center nonprofit organization\, which he founded in 1993 to provide educational and scientific programs in archaeology\, history\, and cultures. Al has received the Arizona Governor’s Award in Public Archaeology\, the Arizona Archaeological and Historical Society’s Victor R. Stoner Award\, and the Arizona Archaeological Society’s Professional Archaeologist of the Year Award for his efforts to bring archaeology and history to the public.
