Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

This Scalar exhibit is the permanent companion to the physical exhibit on view in the Perry Castañeda Library's Scholar Commons November 1st 2018.
Thank you to everyone that assisted with the research process for this exhibit, first and foremost, Bernice Billings and Carol Billings Blood for sharing both insight into and artifacts from Harold's life. There was a tremendous amount we need to learn about UTL and PCL history, so thank you to Tom Staley, Don Carleton, and everyone who we interviewed and who participated in our online survey. Special thanks to Richard Holland for his time and showing us some of the shared interests and collections over which he and Harold bonded. Finally, thanks to Victoria Peña and Nicole Rodriguez for their assistance in the early stages of this project.
