Biographical Note

Robert (Bob) Anshen was born January 4, 1910 in Revere, Massachusetts and worked on Wall Street for several years before deciding to pursue architecture. He attended the University of Pennsylvania where he met Steve Allen, born July 15, 1912 in Neptune Township, New Jersey. Both received a Bachelor of Architecture in 1935 and Master of Architecture in 1936, and upon graduating received traveling fellowships allowing them to take a global tour, including Germany, Japan, and Italy. Their travels eventually came to an end when they reached San Francisco in 1937. Both began working as chief designers, Anshen for Clarence Tantau and Allen for Masten & Hurd. It was then they began to learn about and appreciate the characteristics of west coast design while dreaming of the day they could open their own office.
In 1939, Anshen and Allen secured their first commission: a house for Ralph K. Davies, senior vice president for the Standard Oil Company, in Woodside, CA. The following year they formed the architectural firm, Anshen & Allen. The house was finished in 1941, one week before the attack on Pearl Harbor.
During WWII, Allen served as a Lieutenant Commander in the Navy and Anshen as a Technical Director for the Housing Authority in Vallejo, CA. By 1946, both were back to practicing architecture full time, and with the help of Davies, they had a growing list of clients. The firm became known for a wide variety of project types including residential, commercial, educational, religious, and later specializing in medical buildings. Their most well known projects include the Chapel of the Holy Cross in Sedona, AZ and the International Building in San Francisco.
In 1950, Anshen & Allen began collaborating with Joseph Eichler of Eichler Homes, Inc. to build the first modernist tract homes named for the developer. Bob Anshen would become known for adding an atrium to the building plans, a classic Eichler element. They continued this collaboration until 1960 when employee Claude Oakland, who had been doing much of the design, left to start his own firm and took over the account.
Anshen joined the American Institute of Architects (AIA) in 1946 and became a Fellow in 1962. He was a lecturer at the University of California, Berkeley from 1952-1953, a lecturer at the Interior Design Conference is Aspen, CO in 1957, and was a registered architect in California, Nevada, Texas and Virginia. He was also on the original design team for the University of California, Santa Cruz. He died suddenly in 1964.
In 1948, was the president of the AIA Northern California Chapter in 1956, and became a Fellow in 1959. He was a member of the San Francisco Art Commission from 1952-1956, Chairman of the Civic Design Commission from 1954-1956, and an advisor to the Architect Selection Committee for the California State Colleges in 1961. He was a registered architect in California, Arizona, Nevada, Texas, and Virginia. He died at the age of 80 in 1992.
Anshen + Allen continued to thrive under the direction of Principal Derek Parker until the firm was acquired by Stantec in 2010. Derek Parker was born in England, he earned his architecture license in 1958. After traveling the world, he moved to San Francisco where he joined architecture, planning, and design firm Anshen & Allen in 1960. In 1964, he assumed a leadership role at Anshen & Allen, which he held for nearly 50 years. During his tenure, he guided the firm to a focus on healthcare and academic design, leading the design and planning of more than 50 hospitals and biomedical facilities in 15 countries and received more than 75 awards for his achievements.

System of Arrangement

The records have been organized into five series (detailed below), which have then been further arranged into subseries in accordance with the guidelines published in the Standard Series for Architecture and Landscape Design Records (2000, Kelcy Shepherd and Waverly Lowell). Original order has been maintained when possible; however, in order to provide ease of access, an order has been imposed by the archivist in some cases.

Scope and Contents

The Anshen & Allen Collection spans the years 1917-2007 (bulk 1940-1994) and includes files documenting the projects of the firm and the activities of the two founding architects. The Collection is organized into four series: Personal Papers, Professional Papers, Office Records, and Project Records.
Both the Personal and Professional Papers series are limited and contain documents primarily relating to Stephen Allen. Personal Papers include Allen's college degrees, various student awards and certificates, and his family tree. Some personal correspondence of Robert Anshen's is also included. The Professional Papers series contain Allen's awards and certifications from architectural associations, and a brief history he wrote of client Ralph K. Davies. Also included is an article by Robert Anshen on housing and a presentation given on the firm's marine projects.
The Office Records series consists primarily of records related to marketing the firm including publication correspondence, award submissions, presentation drawings and photographs, brochures, and portfolios. The Clippings subseries is the most significant and contains news and magazine articles written about the firm, the founding architects, and their many projects. Anshen & Allen won the competition for the University of California, Berkeley Lawrence Hall of Science (1968) and the collection contains photographs of the four competing design entries from Vernon DeMars, Eero Saarinen & Associates, Louis Kahn, and Skidmore, Owings & Merrill.
The Project Records make up the bulk of the collection and consist of files, photographs, slides, and architectural drawings documenting projects from the first 50 years of the firm's history. Well-documented projects include the Chapel of the Holy Cross in Sedona, AZ (1956), the Dinosaur National Monument Visitor Center (1956), the Ernest Moore House in Carmel, CA (1956), the International Building in San Francisco (1961), and the University of California, Santa Cruz Natural Sciences Master Plan (1964). Other projects in the collection include a proposal for a second Bay Bridge known as the Southern Crossing (1972), the San Francisco Golden Gateway development (1960), and a competition entry for the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial in Washington, D.C. (1961).
The additional Donation was acquired from Derek Parker in 2022. It contains office records created or collected by Parker while at Anshen & Allen. Included are materials related to Eichler projects designed by A+A, a scrapbook of drawings and plans for A+A projects, a Masters Thesis on A+A, interviews and oral histories
