While his Father was in the navy, George's family lived at Pearl Harbor, and he witnessed the 1941 attack. George himself served in the navy for more than three years as a weather forecaster; for part of the time he was on the USS Bairoko. After graduating from the University of California, Los Angeles with a degree in meteorology in 1955, George Millay worked for a stockbroking firm until 1960. He married Anne Real in 1963; they eventually had three sons and a daughter.","\nIn 1958, Millay opened the Reef restaurant in Los Angeles with David Tallichet. He planned to create a submarine bar there so that customers could view sea creatures while enjoying cocktails. The plan failed because the water in the harbor was too cloudy. However, his interest in marine life introduced him to Dr. Kenneth Norris, curator at Marineland. Together with Milton Shedd and David DeMott, they organized the Marine Park Corporation to create a marine park in San Diego. Sea World opened in 1964 and expanded in 1970 with a park in Ohio followed by the Orlando park in 1972. Sea World Inc. opened an amusement park in Valencia California on 29th May 1971 in partnership with Newhall Land and Farming. Officially named \"Magic Mountain\", the park was designated \"Tragic Mountain\" by a reporter who was injured there. Sea World did not make a profit on the venture and sold out to its partner late in 1971. Millay resigned from Sea World Inc in 1974 because of a disagreement with his partners over how the company should develop.","\nGeorge Millay had spent a lot of time at Sea World in Orlando, and he thought that families would enjoy water activities as a break from the Florida heat. He pulled together ideas from a water playground at the Toronto World's Fair, a flume near Sacramento and a wave pool in Alabama, added a children's playgound, restrooms, gift shop and snack bar to create a new concept. He formed the Leisure Marine Corporation to develop his idea. Initially, the company ran the Seven Seas park in Arlington, TX, for a season, but the venture did not develop further. Wet 'n Wild eventually became a reality in Orlando, where it opened in 1977. The company took over the failing Seven Seas park and redeveloped it into the second Wet 'n Wild in 1983 followed by Las Vegas in 1985. Additional sites opened in Garland, TX, Brazil and Mexico. Wet 'n Wild was named the Best of Aquatics for 2003 by Aquatics International magazine.","\nMillay retired from Wet 'n Wild in 1998, but he continued to work on new projects. He designed and patented a system for moving visitors down into the center of a circular aquarium so that everyone had a good view of the fish. Millay partnered with William Watts and David Powell in creating a company named Sea Venture to sell the system. At the time of his death in 2006, no examples of the system had been sold.","\nGeorge Millay received Lifetime Achievement Awards from the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions and the Themed Entertainment Association, and he was named the Father of the Waterpark Industry by the World Waterpark Association. Tim O'Brien wrote Millay's biography entitled The Wave Maker in 2004.","Collection processed by Judith Beale; finding aid prepared by Judith Beale.

Her parents were physician Hayes Joseph Burnett and tennis player Roberta (\"Bertha\") Ball Burnett. She was the eldest of four children and grew up in Montclair, New Jersey. ","She graduated from Miner Normal School, Washington D.C. in 1925 with the intention of becoming a teacher. Wesley worked as a library assistant in the Miner Normal School library where she worked with librarian Lula V. Allan (1879-1968) who encouraged her to pursue a career in library science. Wesley enrolled in Howard University in 1926 and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1928. She then enrolled at Colombia University's School of Library Science where she received a Master's in Library Science in 1931. ","In 1929 Dorothy married artist and art history professor James Amos Porter (1905-1970) with whom she had her only daughter, Constance \"Coni\" Porter Uzelac (1939-2012). James A. Porter graduated with honors from Howard University in 1927 and began teaching art there the next semester. His classic book and standard reference work,  Modern Negro Art , proved to be one of the most informative sources to date on the creativity of the Black artists.","In 1930, Dorothy Porter began work as curator of the Moorland Foundation at Howard University, (now known as the Moorland-Spingarn Research Center) and worked to build the library's collections documenting African, African American, Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Hispanic history and culture. After becoming the Curator at Howard University in 1930, started thinking about how to catalog books by Black authors and related to Black history and culture. At the time, she recognized that the Dewey Decimal System only had two numbers (for \"Slavery\" and for \"Colonization\") under which all works related to Black people or Black authors could be cataloged. In response, during the first few years of her Curatorship, she created a new classification system that reflected the true breadth of the books available on topics related to Black people and by Black authors. She disseminated the classification system to other libraries, and published it in 1939. Porter worked at the Moorland-Spingarn Research Center until her retirement in 1973.","James Porter's died in 1970, and in 1979 Dorothy married Charles Harris Wesley (1891-1987), a noted historian, educator, and author. After receiving his master's degree from Yale University in 1913, he taught at Howard University from 1913 until 1942. Between 1920 and 1925, he also earned a Ph.D. from Harvard University, the fourth African American to do so. He served as President of Wilberforce University from 1942-1947 and of Central State College, Ohio from 1947 until 1965. ","Charles Harris Wesley authored more than 15 books on African-American history over the course of his career. His first book, Negro Labor in the United States, was hailed as one of the most useful works on the role of African-Americans in industry available in the 1920s. Dorothy worked with Charles on a variety of research projects even prior to their marriage, and continued to do so until Charles's death in 1987. ","After her retirement from Howard University in 1973, Dorothy Porter Wesley worked as a consultant for a variety of institutions and foundations such as the Radcliffe University's Black Women Oral History Archive. She also continued to write articles and books.","In 1994 President Bill Clinton presented her with the National Endowment for the Humanities' Charles Frankel Award. Dorothy Porter Wesley died in Broward County, Florida in 1995.","The book  William Cooper Nell, Nineteenth-Century African American Abolitionist, Historian, Integrationist: Selected Writings 1832-1874  (2002) was the last research project that Charles and Dorothy worked on together, and was posthumously published by Dorothy's daughter, Constance Porter Uzelac. Uzelac worked as a medical librarian. After her mother's death, she became the Executive Director of the Dorothy Porter Wesley Archive and managed James A. Porter's art collection.","In 2000, Constance Uzelac worked with the Bienes Museum of the Modern Book, James Findlay, on an exhibition of her mother's collection that was displayed at the Broward County Main Library in February and March of 2001. Samuel F. Morrison, Director of the Broward County Library, was instrumental in bringing the collection to exhibition at the Bienes, and would further encourage the purchase of the materials from Uzelac for the newly-opened AARLCC Special Collections in December 2002. Constance later worked at Broward County Library, cataloging a portion of the Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection at the AARLCC Special Collections. Constance married Milan Uzelac in 1965. They had no children. She died in Broward County in 2012.","This collection received file level processing.

Established in 1845, the same year Florida became a state, the agency provides law enforcement services throughout Hillsborough County, including Tampa, Plant City, Temple Terrace, and the county's many unincorporated communities. Over nearly two centuries, the sheriff's office has evolved from a frontier-era operation into one of the largest and most technologically advanced law enforcement agencies in the state.","The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office was created following legislation passed by the Florida Legislature requiring each county in the newly admitted state to elect a sheriff. At the time, Hillsborough County had only 47 eligible voters. John Parker, a captain during the Seminole Indian Wars, became the county's first sheriff in 1845. Parker effectively operated as a one-man department and also served as the county's ex-officio tax collector.","In 1847, John Irving Hooker was elected sheriff, and by 1848 the county constructed its first jail, at a time when Tampa's population was only about 100 residents. The office gradually expanded as the county grew. Deputies were not officially added until 1857 during the administration of Sheriff Henry Parker. Three years later, under Sheriff William S. Spencer, a new jailhouse was built on Jefferson Street in 1860 to accommodate the county's increasing population and legal demands.","During the late nineteenth century, the sheriff's office reflected broader social changes taking place across Florida and the South. In 1895, Sheriff Thomas K. Spencer deputized Levin Arwood as the first Black deputy sheriff in Hillsborough County, marking a significant milestone in the agency's history. The county continued to modernize into the twentieth century, and in May 1926 a new Hillsborough County Jail opened on Pierce Street under Sheriff Luther M. Heirs.","Additional changes followed in the decades ahead. In 1929, under Sheriff Luther Hatton, Eleanor E. Robinson became the first female deputy sheriff employed by the agency, representing another important step in the department's diversification.","In 1941, Hugh Culbreath was elected sheriff and established the agency's first substation in Plant City to better serve eastern Hillsborough County. He also became the first sheriff in 53 years to win reelection when he secured a second term in 1944. In 1961, Sheriff Ed Blackburn implemented the agency's first marine unit, featuring a patrol boat known as the \"Keystone Cop.\"","During the tenure of Sheriff Malcolm Beard from 1965 to 1978, the agency established the Mounted Posse, created the School Crossing Guard program, and opened the new Morgan Street Jail in 1965. Under Sheriff Walter Heinrich, the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office became the first sheriff's office in the southeastern United States and the third in the nation to earn accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA). In 1991, the agency became the first sheriff's office in the country to receive \"unconditional\" reaccreditation.","Throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office expanded alongside the rapid growth of the Tampa Bay region. What began as a frontier law enforcement office evolved into a full-service agency responsible for patrol operations, criminal investigations, detention services, courthouse security, aviation and marine operations, emergency response, and numerous community programs. Under current Sheriff Chad Chronister, the agency partnered with University of South Florida's Institute for Digital Exploration to digitize and preserve thousands of historical records dating back to the nineteenth century. These records are now housed in the university's Special Collections Library in Tampa.","References: ","Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office: 150 Years, 1845-1995.

Established in 1845, the same year Florida became a state, the agency provides law enforcement services throughout Hillsborough County, including Tampa, Plant City, Temple Terrace, and the county's many unincorporated communities. Over nearly two centuries, the sheriff's office has evolved from a frontier-era operation into one of the largest and most technologically advanced law enforcement agencies in the state.","The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office was created following legislation passed by the Florida Legislature requiring each county in the newly admitted state to elect a sheriff. At the time, Hillsborough County had only 47 eligible voters. John Parker, a captain during the Seminole Indian Wars, became the county's first sheriff in 1845. Parker effectively operated as a one-man department and also served as the county's ex-officio tax collector.","In 1847, John Irving Hooker was elected sheriff, and by 1848 the county constructed its first jail, at a time when Tampa's population was only about 100 residents. The office gradually expanded as the county grew. Deputies were not officially added until 1857 during the administration of Sheriff Henry Parker. Three years later, under Sheriff William S. Spencer, a new jailhouse was built on Jefferson Street in 1860 to accommodate the county's increasing population and legal demands.","During the late nineteenth century, the sheriff's office reflected broader social changes taking place across Florida and the South. In 1895, Sheriff Thomas K. Spencer deputized Levin Arwood as the first Black deputy sheriff in Hillsborough County, marking a significant milestone in the agency's history. The county continued to modernize into the twentieth century, and in May 1926 a new Hillsborough County Jail opened on Pierce Street under Sheriff Luther M. Heirs.","Additional changes followed in the decades ahead. In 1929, under Sheriff Luther Hatton, Eleanor E. Robinson became the first female deputy sheriff employed by the agency, representing another important step in the department's diversification.","In 1941, Hugh Culbreath was elected sheriff and established the agency's first substation in Plant City to better serve eastern Hillsborough County. He also became the first sheriff in 53 years to win reelection when he secured a second term in 1944. In 1961, Sheriff Ed Blackburn implemented the agency's first marine unit, featuring a patrol boat known as the \"Keystone Cop.\"","During the tenure of Sheriff Malcolm Beard from 1965 to 1978, the agency established the Mounted Posse, created the School Crossing Guard program, and opened the new Morgan Street Jail in 1965. Under Sheriff Walter Heinrich, the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office became the first sheriff's office in the southeastern United States and the third in the nation to earn accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA).
