Although best remembered today for his landscape and country house designs, he was also nationally known for his etchings, landscape paintings, commercial architecture, and institutional projects. He was largely self-taught in each of these disciplines, building his success on his ability to reconceive the classical tradition in architecture for the needs and desires of his wealthy, powerful clients. This collection contains materials related to Platt's personal and professional lives, the bulk originating from Platt's office in the form of project drawings, photographs, and records documenting architectural projects from 1901-1933.

Oral history interview with Petra, 2005 Box 7

secretary of the Federation. She studied at the University for the Elderly. Petra had four children

Petra begins the first session by discussing her family, her education, and her parents' work. She remembers the hobbies that occupied her days, such as the movies and local festivals. Petra reflects on the patron saint festivities while remembering the racial separation: in the festivities for white people, the entrance for Black people was prohibited. Petra reflects on the state of abandonment in which Campo Florido is, which can be seen in the lack of means of transportation and cultural events, blackouts, drug use, and constant migration, both external and internal. Petra then discusses birth control, motherhood, and premature menopause. She remembers the clandestine activities in which she participated during the development of the Revolution, such as listening to Radio Rebelde. Petra reflects on Operation Peter Pan, which had direct consequences on her family. She also reflects on her marriage, the bond with her ex-partner, and household chores.
