Biography

Eldred Ray Harrington was born in Kansas in 1902, and died in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 1980. The accomplishment for which he is best known is his dedication to teaching in public high schools for the majority of his lifetime. He was raised by his mother, Isis Harrington, a teacher with the Indian School Service in Albuquerque, New Mexico. E. R. Harrington followed in her footsteps, becoming an influential teacher for many students of Albuquerque High School.


Scope and Content

This collection contains photographs of Albuquerque High students, and facilities, many landscapes, and cityscapes, and other photographs mainly dealing with education and geology. Photographs pertaining to Oil Shale Reporting Technology and geological interest include Black Butte, the Shoshone Ice Caves of Idaho, and Isleta lava. There are a number of photographs of Harrington's classes at Albuquerque High School and of his tours around the country by motorcycle. A later addition (box 12) also has photos related to the Harrington family, of Al Simpson, bicycle dealer in Albuquerque and friend of E. R. Harrington, along with five postcards depicting kilt-clad Scotsmen, agriculture, including McCormick agricultural machinery, and Navajo and Pueblo communities and Indians including San Ildefonso potter María Martínez and her husband, Julian Martínez.
