Abstract

Sharlot Mabridth Hall died on April 9, 1943 and accolades about her life achievements rolled in from across the state. Dwight B. Heard, co-founder of the Heard Museum in Phoenix said, "In Sharlot Hall this country found the unusual combination of the sturdiness of the pioneer with the beautiful spirit of the poet. She will be long remembered for both characteristics." For the previous 16 years she exhibited those traits in the Museums she founded - the Old Governors Mansion Museum and Sharlot Hall Museum that sat directly behind it. In the next 30 years the two Museums became one and created a history of its own.
