Taos & Santa Fe
Taos (0:01) is such a magical and somewhat remote place - no wonder, it has attracted the first hippie generation, eccentric personalities like Kit Carson, writers such as D. H. Lawrence and Aldous Huxley as well as many artists and actors like Dennis Hopper or Julia Roberts who have all made it their home.
The nearby Taos Pueblo (0:42) was built between 1000 and 1450 A.D. and is considered to be the oldest continuously inhabited community in the US (no electricity, TV, Internet etc.). The pueblo can be seen in the cult movie Easy Rider. Its multi-storied adobe buildings have influenced the beautiful architecture of both Taos and Santa Fe.
Santa Fe (1:49) is the oldest capital city in the whole US and such an inspiring place, it has been designated as a UNESCO Creative City in Design, Crafts and Folk Art. Until 1937, the famous Route 66 ran through Santa Fe (2:03).
Scientists and engineers who had been recruited to work on the top-secret Manhattan Project at nearby Los Alamos first entered room 109 E. Palace Avenue in Santa Fe to be registered (2:35). They never came out that front door again (a bus was waiting at the back and took them to The Hill where the fist atomic bomb was built).

Bobbie Kilberg: The Return of Taos Pueblo's Sacred Blue Lake
Bobbie Kilberg was a Nixon White House Fellow in 1970 and recounts how Richard Nixon signed legislation that returned Taos Pueblo's Blue Lake and 45,000 acres that had been taken from the Tiwa People by the US Government. Nixon's mother was a Quaker, and he felt that taking the Sacred Lake, the site of the Pueblo's religious rituals was a violation of First Amendment rights to practice one's religion.

Lois Rudnick on Sex, Syphilis, and Pyschoanalysis in the Making of Modern American Culture
Sex, Syphilis, and Pyschoanalysis in the Making of Modern American Culture: The Suppressed Memoirs of Mabel Dodge Luhan by Lois Rudnick
Mabel Dodge Luhan was an art patron and cultural catalyst, who created utopian communities in Europe, New York, and Taos, New Mexico. Luhan chose not to publish her memoirs during her lifetime—the stories of her multiple encounters with venereal disease, which began when she was twenty-one, married, and engaged in her first love affair—and continued, until she contracted syphilis from her fourth and final husband, Antonio Lujan of Taos Pueblo.
Lois Rudnick will use the stories that Luhan and her son and heir felt could not be told until long after her death to illustrate the complex ways in which venereal disease impacted the formation of women's sexual identities, the first women's movement of the twentieth century, modern art and literature, and the formation of psychoanalysis. Lois Rudnick is professor emerita of American studies at the University of Massachusetts, Boston, where she chaired the American Studies Department for twenty-six years.
This talk took place at the School for Advanced Research in Santa Fe, New Mexico on January 14, 2014 as part of the Sparks Lecture Series.For more about SAR Sparks lectures, visit:
