Emil Haury - Field Work and Experience

Field Work and Experience

One of the first field experiences came in 1925. That year he was apprenticed to Byron Cummings, A.E. Douglass, and Harold Gladwin where their major work occurred at Cuicuilco right outside of Mexico City. It was at this time that he became one of Cummings' (who was at the time the acting university president) most important assistants. It was through connections made through Cummings that Haury was in attendance at the first Pecos Conference in 1927.

Famous quotes containing the words field, work and/or experience:

    Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.
    Winston Churchill (1874–1965)

    Lost is our freedom
    When we submit to women so:
    Why do we need ‘em
    When, in their best, they work our woe?
    Thomas Campion (1567–1620)

    Some collaboration has to take place in the mind between the woman and the man before the art of creation can be accomplished. Some marriage of opposites has to be consummated. The whole of the mind must lie wide open if we are to get the sense that the writer is communicating his experience with perfect fullness.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
