Sarah Winchester, the widow who inherited the vast Winchester rifle fortune, believed she was haunted by the spirits of those who had been killed by the family weapon. After a particularly powerful session with a medium, Mrs. Winchester decided to leave her home on the East Coast, move out West, and continuously build a mansion for the rest of her life to keep the ghosts at bay, starting in 1884.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Normal_0020_0028Web_0029\" style=\"color: #000000\">For nearly 38 years, the intricate Winchester Mystery House was continuously built and added to – often in a very haphazard fashion, bolstered by the whims of the quirky owner, who daily announced new plans (all without architectural drawings) to her patient foreman, John Hansen, based on her séance from the night before.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Normal_0020_0028Web_0029\" style=\"color: #000000\">After extensive damage in the 1906 earthquake, the ongoing restoration work has proven to be intensive because everything must be specially tailored to a house built without any square corners. Of course, while the late Victorian mansion and grounds are spectacular from a design standpoint -- her ballroom alone cost more than $9,000 -- the “spirit house,” visited by such luminaries as Harry Houdini, still isn’t free from ghosts. While many investigators (including the Mythbusters) have recorded their findings, the public is asked to make up their own minds …especially during the particularly spooky Friday the 13\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> flashlight tours!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13838\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/10/Mystery_spot_entrance.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-13838\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/10/Mystery_spot_entrance-400x520.jpg\" alt=\"Photo: Wiki Commons\" width=\"400\" height=\"520\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2014/10/Mystery_spot_entrance-400x520.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2014/10/Mystery_spot_entrance-800x1041.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2014/10/Mystery_spot_entrance.jpg 1002w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mystery_Spot#mediaviewer/File:Mystery_spot_entrance.jpg\">Wiki Commons\u003c/a>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp class=\"Normal_0020_0028Web_0029\" style=\"color: #000000\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.mysteryspot.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cspan class=\"Hyperlink__Char\" style=\"color: #0000ff\">\u003cspan class=\"Hyperlink__Char\" style=\"font-weight: bold\">Mystery Spot\u003c/span>\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan class=\"Normal_0020_0028Web_0029__Char\" style=\"font-weight: bold\"> – \u003c/span>Santa Cruz, CA:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Normal_0020_0028Web_0029\" style=\"color: #000000\">This tiny spot in Santa Cruz would surely leave even the brilliant Sir Isaac Newton, famous for his gravitational equations, scratching his head. Since 1940, the Mystery Spot, a gravitational anomaly located just 10 minutes away from the beautiful beaches and redwood forests of Santa Cruz, has puzzled millions of visitors from around the world.

Sarah Winchester, the widow who inherited the vast Winchester rifle fortune, believed she was haunted by the spirits of those who had been killed by the family weapon. After a particularly powerful session with a medium, Mrs. Winchester decided to leave her home on the East Coast, move out West, and continuously build a mansion for the rest of her life to keep the ghosts at bay, starting in 1884.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Normal_0020_0028Web_0029\" style=\"color: #000000\">For nearly 38 years, the intricate Winchester Mystery House was continuously built and added to – often in a very haphazard fashion, bolstered by the whims of the quirky owner, who daily announced new plans (all without architectural drawings) to her patient foreman, John Hansen, based on her séance from the night before.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Normal_0020_0028Web_0029\" style=\"color: #000000\">After extensive damage in the 1906 earthquake, the ongoing restoration work has proven to be intensive because everything must be specially tailored to a house built without any square corners. Of course, while the late Victorian mansion and grounds are spectacular from a design standpoint -- her ballroom alone cost more than $9,000 -- the “spirit house,” visited by such luminaries as Harry Houdini, still isn’t free from ghosts. While many investigators (including the Mythbusters) have recorded their findings, the public is asked to make up their own minds …especially during the particularly spooky Friday the 13\u003csup>th\u003c/sup> flashlight tours!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13838\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 400px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/10/Mystery_spot_entrance.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-13838\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/10/Mystery_spot_entrance-400x520.jpg\" alt=\"Photo: Wiki Commons\" width=\"400\" height=\"520\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2014/10/Mystery_spot_entrance-400x520.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2014/10/Mystery_spot_entrance-800x1041.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2014/10/Mystery_spot_entrance.jpg 1002w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mystery_Spot#mediaviewer/File:Mystery_spot_entrance.jpg\">Wiki Commons\u003c/a>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp class=\"Normal_0020_0028Web_0029\" style=\"color: #000000\">\u003ca href=\"http://www.mysteryspot.com/\" target=\"_blank\">\u003cspan class=\"Hyperlink__Char\" style=\"color: #0000ff\">\u003cspan class=\"Hyperlink__Char\" style=\"font-weight: bold\">Mystery Spot\u003c/span>\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan class=\"Normal_0020_0028Web_0029__Char\" style=\"font-weight: bold\"> – \u003c/span>Santa Cruz, CA:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"Normal_0020_0028Web_0029\" style=\"color: #000000\">This tiny spot in Santa Cruz would surely leave even the brilliant Sir Isaac Newton, famous for his gravitational equations, scratching his head.

Girls (and some boys) look up to her, want to emulate her and even dance like her. There are YouTube tutorials that'll try teaching you how shake it like Yoncé, but bumping into your coffee table while trying to stop, pop, and drop it doesn’t make you feel like you’re closer to being in a Beyoncé video.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enter Carol Johnstone, one of the co-founders of \u003ca href=\"http://www.bayareaflashmob.com/\">Bay Area Flash Mob\u003c/a>. After a successful Beyoncé flash mob performance earlier this year, Johnstone thought of expanding the series and focusing on the routine from the “Ego” music video. She sent out a press release to Eventbrite and \u003cem>7x7\u003c/em>, to gauge interest and hopefully gain 30-ish RSVPs for the class. She ended up with 816 sign ups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I want to help women feel sexy and empowered like Beyoncé and, it’s a good workout. The way she drops it the floor with her leg popped out: it’s not easy,” Carol Johnstone tells me over the phone from her home in Marin. I take her word for it, not only because Johnstone has met Queen B herself, but because I’ve stubbed my toe attempting it myself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnstone’s career connected with dance five years ago, when she joined the Thrill the World flash mob to learn Michael Jackson’s \"Thriller\" choreography. Here, she met fellow co-founders of BAFM, who together went on to build a following of 2000+ members through word-of-mouth and social media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/S7vEKxX-g7g\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2010, a friend turned her onto Les Twin, a hip-hop dance duo from France, who were gaining popularity in the dance community. After some internet sleuthing, Johnstone discovered Les Twin were coming to San Francisco and she could be several feet away from them, “for like, five bucks.”What started out as innocent fangirling (asking for a picture with them) turned out to be a life changing business deal. “I asked if they had a website and they told me about their Facebook page...so I offered to make them a proper fan site. A friend of mine in New York and I created Les Twin Online and within weeks, started getting offers from everyone from Russian dance classes to Rihanna.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Les Twins dubbed Johnstone their “de facto manager” and, in between turning down Russians, Johnstone found out Les Twins were wanted men. “Beyoncé had a bounty for $10,000 to find them.\" Johnstone soon booked Les Twin’s career-making “Run the World (Girls)” music video and, while fulfilling her managerial duties on set, was introduced to Queen B herself. Though Bey politely turned down a picture with Johnstone because she was in top-secret-at-the-time costume, it’s an experience Johnstone remembers fondly. Johnstone and Les Twins have since parted ways, but Johnstone’s involvement in the dance community clearly hasn’t slowed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13570\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 360px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-13570 size-thumbnail\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/09/JohnstonePhoto1-360x268.jpeg\" alt=\"Johnstone on set with Les Twins\" width=\"360\" height=\"268\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Johnstone on set with Les Twins\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The original run of six Sunday classes at San Francisco’s Levy Studio, taught by Dyon Lain, sold out within hours. “I’m in the process of adding more teachers, classes, and weeknights,” Johnstone says of her revised plan to meet the demand. So far, she’s secured one location in Oakland and is working three to six more in San Francisco, but it’s hard to find space to accommodate the large groups. Yet Johnstone is up for the daunting task, already surveying the event page to see what Bey dance attendees would want to learn next. “Run the World” is in the lead, but I’m partial to “Single Ladies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the current class is progressive, I ask if there’s a performance end goal. “I could get eight or nine girls up on stage at the Castro Street Fair.

Girls (and some boys) look up to her, want to emulate her and even dance like her. There are YouTube tutorials that'll try teaching you how shake it like Yoncé, but bumping into your coffee table while trying to stop, pop, and drop it doesn’t make you feel like you’re closer to being in a Beyoncé video.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Enter Carol Johnstone, one of the co-founders of \u003ca href=\"http://www.bayareaflashmob.com/\">Bay Area Flash Mob\u003c/a>. After a successful Beyoncé flash mob performance earlier this year, Johnstone thought of expanding the series and focusing on the routine from the “Ego” music video. She sent out a press release to Eventbrite and \u003cem>7x7\u003c/em>, to gauge interest and hopefully gain 30-ish RSVPs for the class. She ended up with 816 sign ups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I want to help women feel sexy and empowered like Beyoncé and, it’s a good workout. The way she drops it the floor with her leg popped out: it’s not easy,” Carol Johnstone tells me over the phone from her home in Marin. I take her word for it, not only because Johnstone has met Queen B herself, but because I’ve stubbed my toe attempting it myself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnstone’s career connected with dance five years ago, when she joined the Thrill the World flash mob to learn Michael Jackson’s \"Thriller\" choreography. Here, she met fellow co-founders of BAFM, who together went on to build a following of 2000+ members through word-of-mouth and social media.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/S7vEKxX-g7g'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/S7vEKxX-g7g'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2010, a friend turned her onto Les Twin, a hip-hop dance duo from France, who were gaining popularity in the dance community. After some internet sleuthing, Johnstone discovered Les Twin were coming to San Francisco and she could be several feet away from them, “for like, five bucks.”What started out as innocent fangirling (asking for a picture with them) turned out to be a life changing business deal. “I asked if they had a website and they told me about their Facebook page...so I offered to make them a proper fan site. A friend of mine in New York and I created Les Twin Online and within weeks, started getting offers from everyone from Russian dance classes to Rihanna.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Les Twins dubbed Johnstone their “de facto manager” and, in between turning down Russians, Johnstone found out Les Twins were wanted men. “Beyoncé had a bounty for $10,000 to find them.\" Johnstone soon booked Les Twin’s career-making “Run the World (Girls)” music video and, while fulfilling her managerial duties on set, was introduced to Queen B herself. Though Bey politely turned down a picture with Johnstone because she was in top-secret-at-the-time costume, it’s an experience Johnstone remembers fondly. Johnstone and Les Twins have since parted ways, but Johnstone’s involvement in the dance community clearly hasn’t slowed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13570\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 360px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-13570 size-thumbnail\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/09/JohnstonePhoto1-360x268.jpeg\" alt=\"Johnstone on set with Les Twins\" width=\"360\" height=\"268\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Johnstone on set with Les Twins\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The original run of six Sunday classes at San Francisco’s Levy Studio, taught by Dyon Lain, sold out within hours. “I’m in the process of adding more teachers, classes, and weeknights,” Johnstone says of her revised plan to meet the demand. So far, she’s secured one location in Oakland and is working three to six more in San Francisco, but it’s hard to find space to accommodate the large groups. Yet Johnstone is up for the daunting task, already surveying the event page to see what Bey dance attendees would want to learn next. “Run the World” is in the lead, but I’m partial to “Single Ladies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the current class is progressive, I ask if there’s a performance end goal. “I could get eight or nine girls up on stage at the Castro Street Fair.

An Englishman by birth, the orphaned Norton was lured to the California Gold Rush in 1849 with his father’s estate (about $40,000) burning a hole in his pocket. While Norton first was a model of success in real estate and merchant investments in the bustling San Francisco community, by the end of the 1850s, thanks to a poor investment in Chinese rice exports and a string of bad luck, Norton was nearly penniless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Norton was frustrated with the Civil War and was heard to casually remark to a friend during that decade, \"If I were Emperor of the United States, you would see great changes effected, and everything would go harmoniously.\" So he decided to do just that -- the September 17, 1859 edition of the \u003cem>San Francisco Bulletin\u003c/em> published his first declaration as Emperor. From there, a phenomenon was born as Norton began to advocate for many different ideas, including abolishing the United States. Rival newspapers made up their own proclamations to compete, stores and restaurants vied for Norton’s endorsements for free publicity, and writers like Samuel Langhorne Clemens (a.k.a. Mark Twain) and Robert Louis Stevenson immortalized him in their stories.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Norton was occasionally prescient -- he advised creating a League of Nations and building a bridge between Oakland and San Francisco -- he often attracted attention because of his larger-than-life personality. Norton rode the cable cars with his pack of dogs and dined for free in some of the best restaurants of San Francisco wearing an elaborate blue uniform given to him by officers at the Presidio with a \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaver_hat\">beaver hat\u003c/a> decorated with a \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peacock_feather\">peacock feather\u003c/a> and a rosette. While some believed him insane, Norton’s death in 1880 merited a front-page obituary and many of San Francisco’s elite attended his large funeral.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13222\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 270px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-13222 size-thumbnail\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/08/230142306_29fdd372fd_z-270x360.jpg\" alt=\"Photo: Mary Harrsch, via Flickr\" width=\"270\" height=\"360\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: \u003ca href=\"https://www.flickr.com/photos/mharrsch/230142306/in/photostream/\">Mary Harrsch, via Flickr\u003c/a>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma de Bretteville Spreckels / \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dewey_Monument\">Dewey Monument\u003c/a>, Union Square\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although Viggo de Bretteville liked to claim he was distantly related to French aristocracy, when his fifth of six children, Alma, was born in 1881 in the Sunset District, the family was anything but wealthy. Viggo had a distinct distaste for work, so his long-suffering wife Mathilde was the sole family breadwinner. By the time Mathilde managed to move the family to a downtown flat on Francisco Street that was converted into a combination Danish bakery, laundry service, and massage parlor, the 14-year-old Alma had dropped out of school to help, while attending the Mark Hopkins Institute of Art at night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The six-foot-tall beauty was soon attracting attention as a nude model for artists (and for successfully suing the miner Charlie Anderson for “personal defloweration” in a breach of promise lawsuit that made local headlines). Most famously, Alma was hired by \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Ingersoll_Aitken\">Robert Ingersoll Aitken\u003c/a> to serve as the model for the “Goddess of Victory” statue atop a monument in Union Square honoring naval hero Admiral Dewey and the recently assassinated president William McKinley. Alma was specifically chosen by the wealthy committee chairman, Adolph Spreckels (head of the local Spreckles Sugar Company), who became smitten with her image. This man, 24 years older than Alma, courted her for five years before finally marrying her in 1908. (She famously said to have agreed to the marriage because, “I’d rather be an old man’s darling than a young man’s slave”). Alma went on to have three children with the man she called her “sugar daddy,” and, although much of the San Francisco elite initially turned their noses up at this bohemian woman, “the Great Grandmother of San Francisco” left quite a legacy; she donated the California Palace of the Legion of Honor (and her Rodin collection) to the city and with her next husband (the younger rancher Elmer Awl) worked to construct the San Francisco Maritime Museum. She died in 1968.\u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"These Bay Area legends, from the first child star of the Gold Rush to the originator of the term “sugar daddy,\" invented celebrity.\r\n","status":"publish","parent":0,"modified":1418162668,"stats":{"hasAudio":false,"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"hasPolis":false,"paragraphCount":16,"wordCount":1238},"headData":{"title":"Meet the Original Celebrities of the Bay Area | KQED","description":"These Bay Area legends, from the first child star of the Gold Rush to the originator of the term “sugar daddy," invented celebrity.\r\n","ogTitle":"","ogDescription":"","ogImgId":"","twTitle":"","twDescription":"","twImgId":"","schema":{"@context":"http://schema.org","@type":"Article","headline":"Meet the Original Celebrities of the Bay Area","datePublished":"2014-08-21T13:20:36.000Z","dateModified":"2014-12-09T22:04:28.000Z","image":"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/KQED-OG-Image@1x.png"}},"disqusIdentifier":"13211 http://blogs.kqed.org/pop/?p=13211","disqusUrl":"https://ww2.kqed.org/pop/2014/08/21/meet-the-original-celebrities-of-the-bay-area/","disqusTitle":"Meet the Original Celebrities of the Bay Area","path":"/pop/13211/meet-the-original-celebrities-of-the-bay-area","audioTrackLength":null,"parsedContent":[{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>\u003cimg class=\"aligncenter wp-image-13225 size-full\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/08/bay-area-celebs.jpg\" alt=\"bay-area-celebs\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2014/08/bay-area-celebs.jpg 640w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/12/2014/08/bay-area-celebs-400x225.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>By Maria Judnick\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Kanye West has compared himself to everyone from Jesus to Walt Disney to Beethoven, he still doesn’t have the one thing these local San Francisco celebrities have: a statue, location, or plaque that pays tribute to their legends.

Lotta Crabtree died in 1924.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13218\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 200px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-13218 size-full\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/08/Joshua_A_Norton2.jpg\" alt=\"Photo: Wiki Commons\" width=\"200\" height=\"340\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Emperor Norton wearing his famous peacock feathered hat.

An Englishman by birth, the orphaned Norton was lured to the California Gold Rush in 1849 with his father’s estate (about $40,000) burning a hole in his pocket. While Norton first was a model of success in real estate and merchant investments in the bustling San Francisco community, by the end of the 1850s, thanks to a poor investment in Chinese rice exports and a string of bad luck, Norton was nearly penniless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Norton was frustrated with the Civil War and was heard to casually remark to a friend during that decade, \"If I were Emperor of the United States, you would see great changes effected, and everything would go harmoniously.\" So he decided to do just that -- the September 17, 1859 edition of the \u003cem>San Francisco Bulletin\u003c/em> published his first declaration as Emperor. From there, a phenomenon was born as Norton began to advocate for many different ideas, including abolishing the United States. Rival newspapers made up their own proclamations to compete, stores and restaurants vied for Norton’s endorsements for free publicity, and writers like Samuel Langhorne Clemens (a.k.a. Mark Twain) and Robert Louis Stevenson immortalized him in their stories.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Norton was occasionally prescient -- he advised creating a League of Nations and building a bridge between Oakland and San Francisco -- he often attracted attention because of his larger-than-life personality. Norton rode the cable cars with his pack of dogs and dined for free in some of the best restaurants of San Francisco wearing an elaborate blue uniform given to him by officers at the Presidio with a \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaver_hat\">beaver hat\u003c/a> decorated with a \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peacock_feather\">peacock feather\u003c/a> and a rosette. While some believed him insane, Norton’s death in 1880 merited a front-page obituary and many of San Francisco’s elite attended his large funeral.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13222\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 270px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-13222 size-thumbnail\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/wp-content/uploads/sites/12/2014/08/230142306_29fdd372fd_z-270x360.jpg\" alt=\"Photo: Mary Harrsch, via Flickr\" width=\"270\" height=\"360\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: \u003ca href=\"https://www.flickr.com/photos/mharrsch/230142306/in/photostream/\">Mary Harrsch, via Flickr\u003c/a>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma de Bretteville Spreckels / \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dewey_Monument\">Dewey Monument\u003c/a>, Union Square\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although Viggo de Bretteville liked to claim he was distantly related to French aristocracy, when his fifth of six children, Alma, was born in 1881 in the Sunset District, the family was anything but wealthy. Viggo had a distinct distaste for work, so his long-suffering wife Mathilde was the sole family breadwinner. By the time Mathilde managed to move the family to a downtown flat on Francisco Street that was converted into a combination Danish bakery, laundry service, and massage parlor, the 14-year-old Alma had dropped out of school to help, while attending the Mark Hopkins Institute of Art at night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The six-foot-tall beauty was soon attracting attention as a nude model for artists (and for successfully suing the miner Charlie Anderson for “personal defloweration” in a breach of promise lawsuit that made local headlines). Most famously, Alma was hired by \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Ingersoll_Aitken\">Robert Ingersoll Aitken\u003c/a> to serve as the model for the “Goddess of Victory” statue atop a monument in Union Square honoring naval hero Admiral Dewey and the recently assassinated president William McKinley. Alma was specifically chosen by the wealthy committee chairman, Adolph Spreckels (head of the local Spreckles Sugar Company), who became smitten with her image. This man, 24 years older than Alma, courted her for five years before finally marrying her in 1908. (She famously said to have agreed to the marriage because, “I’d rather be an old man’s darling than a young man’s slave”). Alma went on to have three children with the man she called her “sugar daddy,” and, although much of the San Francisco elite initially turned their noses up at this bohemian woman, “the Great Grandmother of San Francisco” left quite a legacy; she donated the California Palace of the Legion of Honor (and her Rodin collection) to the city and with her next husband (the younger rancher Elmer Awl) worked to construct the San Francisco Maritime Museum.

We're the epicenter of business, technological innovation, advertising, art and ballet, to name a few. So it comes as no surprise that a myriad of incredible musical acts have called the Bay home. There's just something about the San Francisco Bay that attracts the wildest, most fascinating, best costumed, musicians. From CCR and the Avengers, to Sly and the Family Stone and The Donnas, the Bay area just seems to churn out the hit-makers. And the trend shows no signs of stopping as the likes of Ty Segall, Thee Oh Sees and Shannon and the Clams continually win the hearts, minds and eardrums of rockers nationwide. But things have changed a little. Nowadays bands don't wait around to get a huge record contract to make the most of their music. Nowadays they take matters into their own hands. They pick up a camera, they recruit their friends, and they make a music video. And as it turns out making your own video is one of the best tools a burgeoning band can use to get themselves heard. They're easy to share, fun to watch and you don't need an OK from The Man to make them. The best videos are a collaboration between the band and the director/editor, contributions from various artists on one project are what make them shine. Hey man, we don't need MTV, we have Vimeo! Here is a sample of my favorite videos by rad Bay Area bands and the tales behind how they came to be. Add these to your summer playlist and keep your eyes peeled for more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Burnt Ones\u003c/strong>: \"Web\" Directed by Rob Williamson\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-video\">[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiJOMsDoZbY]\u003c/div>\n\u003cp> \u003cbr>\nWith the \u003ca href=\"http://www.burgerrecords.org/apps/webstore/products/show/3805960\">release of their sophomore album\u003c/a>, \u003cem>You'll Never Walk Alone\u003c/em>, SF-based poppy, psychedelic, fuzz-hounds \u003ca href=\"http://www.facebook.com/burntones\">Burnt Ones\u003c/a> knew the video for their first single, \"Web,\" would best capture the complexity of their sound through simplicity. Lucky for them, longtime pal and rock n'roll romantic \u003ca href=\"http://robistall.com/\">Rob Williamson\u003c/a> was up for the challenge. Tired of the same old overblown, high-definition renditions of music videos, Burnt Ones' Mark Tester and Williamson set out to create just the opposite. \"When Mark and I watched bands from 30 years ago just play in front of a crummy camera it was really refreshing,\" Williamson said. With their concept locked down, Williamson and the Burnt Ones headed to an SF warehouse where they had only a few hours, and very limited resources, to get the job done. \"With the help of a few friends, some borrowed lights, and a lot of extension cords we built our set in about half an hour and started shooting.\" To achieve that perfect lo-fi, analog look and feel, they opted to use Williamson's dad's 8mm Sony Handycam straight from the '90s. The effect is a perfectly blissful psych for eyes and ears. \"The Burnt Ones came over to check it out, were stoked on it, and that was that,\" Williamson mused. It's fuzzy and fine and a beautiful accompaniment to your summer playlist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Burnt Ones hit the road this summer, follow their shenanigans \u003ca href=\"http://www.facebook.com/burntones\">here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Cocktails\u003c/strong>: \"Hey Winnie\" directed by Lauren Matsui\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-video\">[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mB_pIeykbQ0]\u003c/div>\n\u003cp> \u003cbr>\nIn celebration of their self titled EP release on SF/Miami label \u003ca href=\"http://www.fatherdaughterrecords.com/album-releases/\">Father/Daughter records\u003c/a>, San Francisco power-poppers \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/cocktails.the.band\">Cocktails\u003c/a> conjured up one wicked music video.

We're the epicenter of business, technological innovation, advertising, art and ballet, to name a few. So it comes as no surprise that a myriad of incredible musical acts have called the Bay home. There's just something about the San Francisco Bay that attracts the wildest, most fascinating, best costumed, musicians. From CCR and the Avengers, to Sly and the Family Stone and The Donnas, the Bay area just seems to churn out the hit-makers. And the trend shows no signs of stopping as the likes of Ty Segall, Thee Oh Sees and Shannon and the Clams continually win the hearts, minds and eardrums of rockers nationwide. But things have changed a little. Nowadays bands don't wait around to get a huge record contract to make the most of their music. Nowadays they take matters into their own hands. They pick up a camera, they recruit their friends, and they make a music video. And as it turns out making your own video is one of the best tools a burgeoning band can use to get themselves heard. They're easy to share, fun to watch and you don't need an OK from The Man to make them. The best videos are a collaboration between the band and the director/editor, contributions from various artists on one project are what make them shine. Hey man, we don't need MTV, we have Vimeo! Here is a sample of my favorite videos by rad Bay Area bands and the tales behind how they came to be. Add these to your summer playlist and keep your eyes peeled for more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Burnt Ones\u003c/strong>: \"Web\" Directed by Rob Williamson\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-video\">\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/WiJOMsDoZbY'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/WiJOMsDoZbY'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp> \u003cbr>\nWith the \u003ca href=\"http://www.burgerrecords.org/apps/webstore/products/show/3805960\">release of their sophomore album\u003c/a>, \u003cem>You'll Never Walk Alone\u003c/em>, SF-based poppy, psychedelic, fuzz-hounds \u003ca href=\"http://www.facebook.com/burntones\">Burnt Ones\u003c/a> knew the video for their first single, \"Web,\" would best capture the complexity of their sound through simplicity. Lucky for them, longtime pal and rock n'roll romantic \u003ca href=\"http://robistall.com/\">Rob Williamson\u003c/a> was up for the challenge. Tired of the same old overblown, high-definition renditions of music videos, Burnt Ones' Mark Tester and Williamson set out to create just the opposite. \"When Mark and I watched bands from 30 years ago just play in front of a crummy camera it was really refreshing,\" Williamson said. With their concept locked down, Williamson and the Burnt Ones headed to an SF warehouse where they had only a few hours, and very limited resources, to get the job done. \"With the help of a few friends, some borrowed lights, and a lot of extension cords we built our set in about half an hour and started shooting.\" To achieve that perfect lo-fi, analog look and feel, they opted to use Williamson's dad's 8mm Sony Handycam straight from the '90s. The effect is a perfectly blissful psych for eyes and ears. \"The Burnt Ones came over to check it out, were stoked on it, and that was that,\" Williamson mused. It's fuzzy and fine and a beautiful accompaniment to your summer playlist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Burnt Ones hit the road this summer, follow their shenanigans \u003ca href=\"http://www.facebook.com/burntones\">here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Cocktails\u003c/strong>: \"Hey Winnie\" directed by Lauren Matsui\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"single-video\">\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/mB_pIeykbQ0'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/mB_pIeykbQ0'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/div>\n\u003cp> \u003cbr>\nIn celebration of their self titled EP release on SF/Miami label \u003ca href=\"http://www.fatherdaughterrecords.com/album-releases/\">Father/Daughter records\u003c/a>, San Francisco power-poppers \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/cocktails.the.band\">Cocktails\u003c/a> conjured up one wicked music video.
