Scope and Contents: Materials in this collection represent Hana Ginzbarg’s working files for Armand Bayou. To make the files accessible to the public, they were organized into three series. Series 1 includes materials related to Ginzbarg’s initial campaign to prevent development in the Armand Bayou area. Papers in Series 2 cover the subsequent efforts to preserve Armand Bayou as a nature education center and protect the area from proposed encroachments. Papers in Series 3 include maps and oversized documents.
It should be noted that this collection represents only a portion of Hana Ginzbarg’s papers. She retains her papers related to other campaigns and issues, particularly regarding her exhaustive work on the Bellaire Nature Discovery Center. More of Ginzbarg’s papers will come to the Houston History Archives at a later date.
