She graduated from Dillard High School at just 14 years old and, at 15, entered Fisk University on a Ford Foundation scholarship to study English. Her intellectual journey deepened at Oberlin College, where exposure to courses on the African diaspora inspired her to change her major to Sociology-Anthropology, earning her bachelor's degree in 1957.","Gloria enrolled at Columbia University in New York, where she pursued graduate studies in Anthropology. She earned both her Master's (1959) and Ph.D. degrees in (1964), becoming the first African American woman to teach at Columbia University. Following the completion of her doctorate, Dr. Sudarkasa was appointed assistant professor of anthropology at New York University (1970-1976), again marking a historic first for an African American woman. ","Gloria Albertha Marshall adopted the name Niara Sudarkasa to reflect her evolving identity as a cultural bridge between African Americans and continental Africans. Her name change marked a deepening commitment to diasporic connection and cultural reclamation.\nAt the University of Michigan, Dr. Sudarkasa continued to break barriers, becoming the first African American faculty member in the Department of Anthropology. From 1978 to 1981, she served as Associate Director of the Center for Afro-American and African Studies, advancing scholarship and institutional support for African diaspora research.","In 1986, she became the first female president of Lincoln University in Pennsylvania, a role she held until 1998. Her scholarship increasingly centered on the lives of women in West Africa and the enduring strength of the Black family. Her work in Nigeria earned her recognition from the royal court: in 2001, His Royal Majesty Aláyélúwà Ọba Ọkúnadé Sijuwade Olúbùsẹ II of the Royal Court of Ifẹ́ conferred upon her the chieftaincy title Yèyé Olókun Ìgbàdérò. She was the first African American to receive this honor from the Ifẹ́ Kingdom.","Following her retirement from higher education, Dr. Sudarkasa returned to her hometown of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where she became the first scholar-in-residence at the newly opened African American Research Library and Cultural Center in 2002.\nDr. Sudarkasa was married to John L. Clark and was the mother of Michael Sudarkasa. She passed away on May 31, 2019, at the age of 80, leaving behind a legacy of scholarship, leadership, and cultural stewardship.","The Niara Sudarkasa Collection received container level processing. This finding aid may be updated to reflect new descriptions as well as acquisitions to the collection. ","Parts of the collection have received file level processing. From January 2022 to May 2024, FIU interns, Emmanuel George, and Dominique St. Victor processed \"Series I. Correspondence\" and \"Series III. Professional Papers, Sub-series 1. Writings by Niara Sudarkasa and Sub-series 2. Writings by Others\" as part of the WPHL-FIU Community Data Curation grant.","The Niara Sudarkasa Collection documents the career of anthropologist, Africanist, professor, and university president Dr. Niara Sudarkasa. The collection contains correspondence, scholarly writings, publications, research files, audio visual materials, awards, and business papers dating from 1934 to 2006. The collection also includes Dr. Sudarka's personal library of more than 2,500 books, journals, and pamphlets. The collection highlights Dr. Sudarkasa's professional achievements including becoming the first woman president of Lincoln University in Pennsylvania and first Black faculty member of the Anthropology Department at the University of Michigan. Her papers are a unique resource on Yoruba language and culture, ethnic groups in higher education, and the Black Power Movement in the United States.

Johnson bought 2,650 acres just north of Plantation for $10 million and began developing his city. The village was next to a golf course and off Sunrise Boulevard, so he called it Sunrise Golf Village when it was incorporated in 1961. It became Sunrise in 1971. Gov. Farris Bryant appointed Mr. Johnson its first mayor, even though he was not a resident of the village and never would be. There were no residents in the village. What his fledgling city needed, Mr. Johnson reasoned, was something -- a sales gimmick -- that would lure prospective buyers into the rural, far-west reaches of the county to look at his homes. ","By July 1960, the Upside-Down House had been built for $11,500 on Sunset Strip and opened to the public. Furniture and fixtures were bolted, nailed, wired, glued or welded in place, a Pontiac convertible was parked in the carport and shrubs filled a planter in front of the home -- all upside down. The topsy-turvy house was also a model of the 10,000 homes that Mr. Johnson was building in the development and selling for $10,745. The Upside-Down house quickly became an area attraction, drawing 12,000 curiosity seekers and prospective home buyers the first four days it was open. A two-page photo spread followed in Life magazine, and aviators began using it as a landmark. By the early '70s, when it was destroyed, more than 1 million people had toured the inverted house. ","Johnson  was training as an Army Air Force pilot when World War II ended, and soon after his discharge he moved to Davenport, Iowa, where he built 200 homes before moving to south Broward in 1948. One of his first ventures in Florida was constructing the Adobe Hacienda motel in Hollywood. He ran the inn, which still stands, for 10 years before selling it. A short time later, he bought a small private airport and began developing several hundred homes in his Look subdivision, between what is now Johnson and Sheridan streets and Dixie Highway and Interstate 95. He used the airport runway as the community's main street. ","His Plantation Isles subdivision followed in 1957, and he moved his family into one of the first homes he built. He later was president of the Plantation Chamber of Commerce. Sunrise came next. He built the state's first \"true\" condominiums, developed his village and was mayor from 1961 until 1967, when John Lomelo was elected to the post. He set up an office on a road he had named Sunset Strip -- after his favorite television show, 77 Sunset Strip -- and had the Postal Service number the building 77 even though it was out of sequence. By 1966, Mr. Johnson was looking around for another venture. By year-end, he and partner Stephen A. Calder had opened their Miami-Hollywood Speedway, west of Hollywood. Mr. Johnson was operating partner of the racetrack for the next 16 years, before trying retirement. Retirement didn't work, Bruce Johnson said, and his father, a car buff, began building handcrafted Johnson Presidential and Johnson Phantom cars styled after classic models of the 1930s. By the time of his death in 1990, Mr. Johnson's garage in Davie had sold 87 of the specially ordered Presidential cars or car kits and 260 Phantoms.

","By July 1960, the Upside-Down House had been built for $11,500 on Sunset Strip and opened to the public. Furniture and fixtures were bolted, nailed, wired, glued or welded in place, a Pontiac convertible was parked in the carport and shrubs filled a planter in front of the home -- all upside down. The topsy-turvy house was also a model of the 10,000 homes that Mr. Johnson was building in the development and selling for $10,745. The Upside-Down house quickly became an area attraction, drawing 12,000 curiosity seekers and prospective home buyers the first four days it was open. A two-page photo spread followed in Life magazine, and aviators began using it as a landmark. By the early '70s, when it was destroyed, more than 1 million people had toured the inverted house. ","Johnson  was training as an Army Air Force pilot when World War II ended, and soon after his discharge he moved to Davenport, Iowa, where he built 200 homes before moving to south Broward in 1948. One of his first ventures in Florida was constructing the Adobe Hacienda motel in Hollywood. He ran the inn, which still stands, for 10 years before selling it. A short time later, he bought a small private airport and began developing several hundred homes in his Look subdivision, between what is now Johnson and Sheridan streets and Dixie Highway and Interstate 95. He used the airport runway as the community's main street. ","His Plantation Isles subdivision followed in 1957, and he moved his family into one of the first homes he built. He later was president of the Plantation Chamber of Commerce. Sunrise came next. He built the state's first \"true\" condominiums, developed his village and was mayor from 1961 until 1967, when John Lomelo was elected to the post. He set up an office on a road he had named Sunset Strip -- after his favorite television show, 77 Sunset Strip -- and had the Postal Service number the building 77 even though it was out of sequence. By 1966, Mr. Johnson was looking around for another venture. By year-end, he and partner Stephen A. Calder had opened their Miami-Hollywood Speedway, west of Hollywood. Mr. Johnson was operating partner of the racetrack for the next 16 years, before trying retirement. Retirement didn't work, Bruce Johnson said, and his father, a car buff, began building handcrafted Johnson Presidential and Johnson Phantom cars styled after classic models of the 1930s. By the time of his death in 1990, Mr. Johnson's garage in Davie had sold 87 of the specially ordered Presidential cars or car kits and 260 Phantoms.

The first three series feature personal and office files which show the birth and growth of the organization, sorted at the state and local division levels. The last two series holds audio visual and photographic ephemera as well as scrapbooks created by workers at the society.","To be an orphan in Florida at the turn of the twentieth century was a dangerous prospect. Children were being orphaned due to farm and industrial accidents and numerous poor families had to give up children they could no longer afford. Many children were abused and there were few laws that protected children's rights. Homeless children had little place to go where they could be safe, properly cared for, and loved.","\nIn response to this increasing crisis, the National Children's Home Society was formed in Illinois in 1883 to help place children who had been orphaned in farming and industrial accidents, spreading to several other states over the next decade. The Revered D. W. Comstock came to Jacksonville, Florida in 1902 as a representative of the National Children's Home Society to help organize the state's first child welfare society. On November 17, 1902, with the help of Rev. D. W. Comstock and Jacksonville's city and religious leaders, The Children's Home Society of Florida (CHSFL) was established. The welfare of the child was the society's primary focus, making sure that if the family could not be preserved that the child was placed in a happy and healthy home.","\nThe CHSFL was developed as a non-profit organization, relying solely on donations from the community. Fund-raising efforts began as administrative duties were carried out in private homes around the city. The children were also were being cared for in private residences as there was not yet a home secured for the society to board its charges. The CHSFL committed itself to not only children but to babies who were not accepted until the age of three at state orphanages (Mahoney, 5). Money was tight for the society and within the first few years, the CHSFL found itself in deep debt. By September of 1910, the CHSFL was facing the possibility of ending operations when a new state superintendent for the society entered its doors. Marcus C. Fagg was just 24 when he took control of the CHSFL but within a few short months, he had already obtained funding to start his first appeals drive. Many in the society to this day believe that it was Marcus C. Fagg who saved the CHSFL from closing its doors and built it to the standards that society members and workers adhere to today. Fagg's compassion towards children also did not go unnoticed; from his early years with the CHSFL, many children he helped referred to him as \"Daddy\" Fagg as a token of their appreciation for finding them loving homes.","\nMarcus Fagg brought innovative solutions to a dire financial situation. Using land donated or sold at cost to the society, Fagg either rented or sold land at higher costs to turn a profit. Fagg also helped poor families by renting them homes at drastically reduced rental costs with an option to later buy the homes. Marcus Fagg helped dozens of poor families regain their footing while also helping the CHSFL emerge from a deep hole of financial debt.","\nThough Marcus Fagg began to save the society financially, the society still fell on hard times. The country became entangled in the agony of the Great Depression in the 1930s and the CHSFL suffered with the rest of the nation. The Miami receiving home was lost due to a lack of finances but was thankfully picked up and operated by the Junior League until 1936 when CHSFL was able to once again run the home. Marcus Fagg also made history in 1932 by becoming the first chairman of the new Florida State Welfare Board. Through the 1940s and 1950s, CHSFL was instrumental in securing rights and welfare laws for children nationwide. CHSFL was one of the founding members of the Child Welfare League of America and was one of the only societies in the country to handle state adoptions without the aid of a state agency. The society also saw rapid growth, thanks in part to the massive fund-raising performed by Marcus Fagg; several new division offices opened throughout the state, many of whom offered special services for children. CHSFL also began offering services to unwed mothers, further committing themselves to the family rather than just simply finding homes for children.","\nOne of the saddest moments for the CHSFL was the loss of their mentor and leader, Marcus C. \"Daddy\" Fagg in 1958. After Fagg's passing, newspapers throughout Florida ran headlines announcing the loss of a great state hero. Buried in a simple grave in Jacksonville, Florida, Fagg's life and legacy still serves as a reminder to the CHSFL of their continued effort to help abused and orphaned children in the state of Florida.","\nSegregation and integration played an important role for CHSFL in the 1960s as the society began caring for and adopting out African-American children from their receiving homes. Historically, the society took in mostly white children. As the Civil Rights movement grew in the 1960's, the society re-examined the scope of its adoption policies and began taking in and offering adoption services for the African-American community. This was a significant development both for the society and for the Civil Rights movement; African-American children were being given the same adoption services as white children at a time when the issue of race was dominant in society and politics. As the country rapidly changed, so did the society, offering for the first time services in schools for handicapped, delinquent, and abused children as well children living in racially mixed households. These services would grow and define the society through to the end of the 1990s.","\nJust three years into the new millennium and the society's second century of service, the CHSFL moved its headquarters from its birthplace in Jacksonville to more centrally located offices in Winter Park, Florida. Now over one hundred years old, the CHSFL offers fourteen divisions that serve the entire state of Florida.","Collection processed by Ari Karlene Anderson; finding aid prepared by April Karlene Anderson and Katie Seeler. All paper materials have been placed in acid free folders and stored in archival containers. Some larger paper materials, such as maps and large photographs were also placed in acid free folders but are stored in archival flat files. Paper clips have been removed and replaced with plastic clips. In some cases, rusty staples have also been removed. Post-it notes have been moved to the edges of papers and copies have been made of more fragile materials such as news clippings. Photo blocks have been placed in archival trays, stored in separate bins to prevent them from scraping against one another. Any audio or visual media in cases were kept in their containers but placed collectively in archival boxes.

Children were being orphaned due to farm and industrial accidents and numerous poor families had to give up children they could no longer afford. Many children were abused and there were few laws that protected children's rights. Homeless children had little place to go where they could be safe, properly cared for, and loved.\u003c/p\u003e\n","\u003cp\u003e\nIn response to this increasing crisis, the National Children's Home Society was formed in Illinois in 1883 to help place children who had been orphaned in farming and industrial accidents, spreading to several other states over the next decade. The Revered D. W. Comstock came to Jacksonville, Florida in 1902 as a representative of the National Children's Home Society to help organize the state's first child welfare society. On November 17, 1902, with the help of Rev. D. W. Comstock and Jacksonville's city and religious leaders, The Children's Home Society of Florida (CHSFL) was established. The welfare of the child was the society's primary focus, making sure that if the family could not be preserved that the child was placed in a happy and healthy home.\u003c/p\u003e\n","\u003cp\u003e\nThe CHSFL was developed as a non-profit organization, relying solely on donations from the community. Fund-raising efforts began as administrative duties were carried out in private homes around the city. The children were also were being cared for in private residences as there was not yet a home secured for the society to board its charges. The CHSFL committed itself to not only children but to babies who were not accepted until the age of three at state orphanages (Mahoney, 5). Money was tight for the society and within the first few years, the CHSFL found itself in deep debt. By September of 1910, the CHSFL was facing the possibility of ending operations when a new state superintendent for the society entered its doors. Marcus C. Fagg was just 24 when he took control of the CHSFL but within a few short months, he had already obtained funding to start his first appeals drive. Many in the society to this day believe that it was Marcus C. Fagg who saved the CHSFL from closing its doors and built it to the standards that society members and workers adhere to today.

Using land donated or sold at cost to the society, Fagg either rented or sold land at higher costs to turn a profit.

The country became entangled in the agony of the Great Depression in the 1930s and the CHSFL suffered with the rest of the nation. The Miami receiving home was lost due to a lack of finances but was thankfully picked up and operated by the Junior League until 1936 when CHSFL was able to once again run the home. Marcus Fagg also made history in 1932 by becoming the first chairman of the new Florida State Welfare Board. Through the 1940s and 1950s, CHSFL was instrumental in securing rights and welfare laws for children nationwide. CHSFL was one of the founding members of the Child Welfare League of America and was one of the only societies in the country to handle state adoptions without the aid of a state agency. The society also saw rapid growth, thanks in part to the massive fund-raising performed by Marcus Fagg; several new division offices opened throughout the state, many of whom offered special services for children. CHSFL also began offering services to unwed mothers, further committing themselves to the family rather than just simply finding homes for children.\u003c/p\u003e\n","\u003cp\u003e\nOne of the saddest moments for the CHSFL was the loss of their mentor and leader, Marcus C. \"Daddy\" Fagg in 1958.

Postcard history is often divided into eight distinct \"eras\" beginning in the 1850s and continuing through the \"Golden Age of Postcards\" beginning around 1905 and lasting through 1915. In this golden age, millions of cards were printed and sold throughout the entire U.S. and collecting cards became a popular hobby. The Northeast Florida Regional Postcard Collection contains examples from many of the documented eras, including photographic cards popularized in the nineteen teens and twenties. ","\nAdvances in printing and photographic techniques along with faster shipping methods between the U.S. and Europe allowed for the mass production of brightly colored pictorial cards to be quickly manufactured and distributed to sellers. In addition to the printers in major U.S. cities, a network of publishers and photographers allowed many local businesses in small towns across the U.S. to commission postcards of local \"views\" that were cheaply printed in Germany. Many images of small-town life, including municipal architecture, private residences, and street scenes were preserved and are a useful tool for local historians and researchers. These views act as a \"visual record of a town\" and help develop a fuller understanding of the locations represented in the postcards. Additionally, postcards depicted natural disasters, fires, local amusements, and tourist attractions and were important to the souvenir trade of the time.  ","\nAt the height of the industry's popularity, publishers would often share or even steal negatives to create their own postcards and often would change or distort the negative to make them appear different from other printers. Misspellings were common and incorrectly captioned cards were also prevalent. The Northeast Florida Regional Postcard collection has several examples of this business tactic and many examples of misspellings in the captions or titles on the cards. ","\nEnthusiasm for postcard collecting began to wane around 1912 and ended with the start of World War I. Even though the initial craze for postcards diminished, they are still produced and continue to be a useful visual record for researchers and historians of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Northeast Florida Regional Postcard Collection supports many of our Florida ephemera or Floridiana collections and is a great resource for the visual history of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and the other towns of Northeast Florida.

Postcard history is often divided into eight distinct \"eras\" beginning in the 1850s and continuing through the \"Golden Age of Postcards\" beginning around 1905 and lasting through 1915. In this golden age, millions of cards were printed and sold throughout the entire U.S. and collecting cards became a popular hobby. The Northeast Florida Regional Postcard Collection contains examples from many of the documented eras, including photographic cards popularized in the nineteen teens and twenties. ","\nAdvances in printing and photographic techniques along with faster shipping methods between the U.S. and Europe allowed for the mass production of brightly colored pictorial cards to be quickly manufactured and distributed to sellers. In addition to the printers in major U.S. cities, a network of publishers and photographers allowed many local businesses in small towns across the U.S. to commission postcards of local \"views\" that were cheaply printed in Germany. Many images of small-town life, including municipal architecture, private residences, and street scenes were preserved and are a useful tool for local historians and researchers. These views act as a \"visual record of a town\" and help develop a fuller understanding of the locations represented in the postcards. Additionally, postcards depicted natural disasters, fires, local amusements, and tourist attractions and were important to the souvenir trade of the time.  ","\nAt the height of the industry's popularity, publishers would often share or even steal negatives to create their own postcards and often would change or distort the negative to make them appear different from other printers. Misspellings were common and incorrectly captioned cards were also prevalent. The Northeast Florida Regional Postcard collection has several examples of this business tactic and many examples of misspellings in the captions or titles on the cards. ","\nEnthusiasm for postcard collecting began to wane around 1912 and ended with the start of World War I. Even though the initial craze for postcards diminished, they are still produced and continue to be a useful visual record for researchers and historians of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Northeast Florida Regional Postcard Collection supports many of our Florida ephemera or Floridiana collections and is a great resource for the visual history of Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and the other towns of Northeast Florida.

Johnson was born on a farm in Benson, Minnesota, in 1906. He was\nconsidered one of the outstanding agricultural forecasters in the nation. Earning a Bachelor of\nArts degree in Science, History, and English in 1928 from Gustavious Adolphus College in St.\nPeter, Minnesota, Johnson minored in meteorology. Johnson's professors advised him to pursue a\ncareer in weather forecasting. He took that advice. He was a forecaster for forty-\ntwo years, thirty-five of which were in Florida. He was the meteorologist in charge of the\nFederal-State Agricultural Weather Service.\nFollowing a brief assignment as a U.S. Weather Bureau observer in Huron, South Dakota,\nJohnson was transferred to the bureau's headquarters in Washington, D.C. to work in the\nHurricane Forecasting Center for the Eastern United States from Maine to Florida, including the\nGulf of Mexico and the western Caribbean. While in Jacksonville, receiving advanced\nforecasting training, a forecasting and hurricane center was established there and Johnson was\nselected to assist in developing it.\nIn 1935 he transferred to Lakeland to take part in and help develop another newly-established\nweather program in the State of Florida – a joint Federal-State Agricultural Weather Service. His\nvalue to the hurricane forecasting section of the weather service and to the Federal-State\nAgricultural Weather Service resulted in him spending three years shuttling between forecasting\nhurricanes in the summer and freezes in the winter. He was called to hurricane forecasting in\n1938, but Johnson returned to Lakeland and the agricultural weather service as meteorologist in\ncharge. But his prowess as \"one of the top forecasters\" demanded his temporary duty in the\nHurricane Tracking Center, by then located in Miami. Like any other thriving and successful\nbusiness venture, the Federal-State Agricultural Weather Service expanded. It grew into a\nnetwork of eight field stations and 400 temperature survey stations, and Johnson was required to\nremain in Lakeland year-round to administer the service. His accuracy in forecasting freezes was\nestablished during those years, and he is considered one of the outstanding weather forecasters in\nthe nation. He not only earned the respect of those in the citrus industry, but of those of cousin\nagricultural industries, including vegetable and cattle.\nWhile at the agricultural weather service, Johnson was responsible for developing a widespread\ndaily broadcast of frost warning bulletins carried statewide by a radio network. \"Probably no\nindividual associated with the citrus industry was better known to growers and production\nmanagers – especially during the cold months,\" is the way Johnson was described by R.E.\nNorris. Not only was Johnson providing \"unusual accuracy\" in forecasting temperature\nminimums and duration of temperatures dangerous to citrus, he also assembled information and\ndata regarding grove protection during periods of frost and developed data regarding prospective\ngrove locations and the minimum temperatures the potential grove could expect.\nFrom 1943 through 1970, he was in charge of the Lakeland office and responsible for the\nagricultural forecasts during the winter months. Johnson developed a daily broadcast of frost\nwarning bulletins carried throughout the state by many radio stations. He established a teletype\nnetwork that was made available to growers. He administered field districts and hundreds of\ntemperature survey stations which helped depict minimum temperature characteristics of the\nstate. He also compiled data on the effects of various temperatures on the growth of citrus and\nvegetables. That data became the basis for Florida, Texas, and California programs and\nprotective measures to prevent agricultural damage.\nImpending frost of the nature that occasionally settles over the state during peak winter\nharvesting months are not as feared by citrus men today as they once were, thanks to the life's\nwork of \"Mr. Forecaster,\" Warren O. Johnson. From 1943 until his retirement, Johnson was\nassociated jointly with the Federal and State governments as the meteorologist in charge of the\nFederal-State Agricultural Weather Service. \"I think that he had a better feel for what was going\nto occur on those cold nights than the meteorologists of today, even though they must have had at\ntheir command very sophisticated technology as compared to the Johnson Days,\" wrote C.A.\nRoot, vice-president of Lykes Brothers citrus division.\nMany of the trails Johnson blazed into weather forecasting were particularly invaluable to the\ncitrus industry by affording advance warning to growers when the mercury was expected to drop\ninto hazardous temperature ranges. The teletype network and communications outlets to help\ngrowers keep tabs on developing weather conditions pioneered by Johnson are, for the most part,\nstill in use today.","This collection has been processed at a basic level in an effort to make this\ncollection available in the shortest amount of time.

Johnson was born on a farm in Benson, Minnesota, in 1906. He was\nconsidered one of the outstanding agricultural forecasters in the nation. Earning a Bachelor of\nArts degree in Science, History, and English in 1928 from Gustavious Adolphus College in St.\nPeter, Minnesota, Johnson minored in meteorology. Johnson's professors advised him to pursue a\ncareer in weather forecasting. He took that advice. He was a forecaster for forty-\ntwo years, thirty-five of which were in Florida. He was the meteorologist in charge of the\nFederal-State Agricultural Weather Service.\nFollowing a brief assignment as a U.S. Weather Bureau observer in Huron, South Dakota,\nJohnson was transferred to the bureau's headquarters in Washington, D.C. to work in the\nHurricane Forecasting Center for the Eastern United States from Maine to Florida, including the\nGulf of Mexico and the western Caribbean. While in Jacksonville, receiving advanced\nforecasting training, a forecasting and hurricane center was established there and Johnson was\nselected to assist in developing it.\nIn 1935 he transferred to Lakeland to take part in and help develop another newly-established\nweather program in the State of Florida – a joint Federal-State Agricultural Weather Service. His\nvalue to the hurricane forecasting section of the weather service and to the Federal-State\nAgricultural Weather Service resulted in him spending three years shuttling between forecasting\nhurricanes in the summer and freezes in the winter. He was called to hurricane forecasting in\n1938, but Johnson returned to Lakeland and the agricultural weather service as meteorologist in\ncharge. But his prowess as \"one of the top forecasters\" demanded his temporary duty in the\nHurricane Tracking Center, by then located in Miami. Like any other thriving and successful\nbusiness venture, the Federal-State Agricultural Weather Service expanded. It grew into a\nnetwork of eight field stations and 400 temperature survey stations, and Johnson was required to\nremain in Lakeland year-round to administer the service. His accuracy in forecasting freezes was\nestablished during those years, and he is considered one of the outstanding weather forecasters in\nthe nation. He not only earned the respect of those in the citrus industry, but of those of cousin\nagricultural industries, including vegetable and cattle.\nWhile at the agricultural weather service, Johnson was responsible for developing a widespread\ndaily broadcast of frost warning bulletins carried statewide by a radio network. \"Probably no\nindividual associated with the citrus industry was better known to growers and production\nmanagers – especially during the cold months,\" is the way Johnson was described by R.E.\nNorris. Not only was Johnson providing \"unusual accuracy\" in forecasting temperature\nminimums and duration of temperatures dangerous to citrus, he also assembled information and\ndata regarding grove protection during periods of frost and developed data regarding prospective\ngrove locations and the minimum temperatures the potential grove could expect.\nFrom 1943 through 1970, he was in charge of the Lakeland office and responsible for the\nagricultural forecasts during the winter months. Johnson developed a daily broadcast of frost\nwarning bulletins carried throughout the state by many radio stations. He established a teletype\nnetwork that was made available to growers. He administered field districts and hundreds of\ntemperature survey stations which helped depict minimum temperature characteristics of the\nstate. He also compiled data on the effects of various temperatures on the growth of citrus and\nvegetables. That data became the basis for Florida, Texas, and California programs and\nprotective measures to prevent agricultural damage.\nImpending frost of the nature that occasionally settles over the state during peak winter\nharvesting months are not as feared by citrus men today as they once were, thanks to the life's\nwork of \"Mr. Forecaster,\" Warren O. Johnson. From 1943 until his retirement, Johnson was\nassociated jointly with the Federal and State governments as the meteorologist in charge of the\nFederal-State Agricultural Weather Service. \"I think that he had a better feel for what was going\nto occur on those cold nights than the meteorologists of today, even though they must have had at\ntheir command very sophisticated technology as compared to the Johnson Days,\" wrote C.A.\nRoot, vice-president of Lykes Brothers citrus division.\nMany of the trails Johnson blazed into weather forecasting were particularly invaluable to the\ncitrus industry by affording advance warning to growers when the mercury was expected to drop\ninto hazardous temperature ranges. The teletype network and communications outlets to help\ngrowers keep tabs on developing weather conditions pioneered by Johnson are, for the most part,\nstill in use today."],"odd_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThis collection has been processed at a basic level in an effort to make this\ncollection available in the shortest amount of time.
