    Harrison Forman Diary, Colombia, 1954

    No full text
    In this diary, Harrison Forman, photographer and journalist, describes his travels to the Chiquinquirá and Coscuez mines near Bogotá, Colombia. Forman begins the diary telling of the landscape on the way to the mines, the sheer cliffs and jungle terrain, and the narrow and rugged roads. Forman experiences difficulty getting transportation to the mine and is helped by Gregorio Hernandez de Alba (1904-1973), fellow member of the Explorer's Club and anthropologist native to Bogotá. Forman reaches Muzo village, describing the terrain along the way, and arrives at one of the main emerald mines in Muzo. There, Forman meets with the mine administrators and notes their operations including the number and income of the miners. He writes of the difficulty, even for geologists and engineers, to predict where emeralds can be found and that all the work is done by hand, not machines. He goes on to the Coscuez mine and describes the events that take place once emeralds have been found (a "strike"), detailing the security measures to ensure the gems are not stolen. Forman notes despite that it is illegal to possess uncut emeralds; there are those in Bogotá who deal in uncut gems. Throughout the diary, Forman references the value of emeralds found in the past and mentions two significant emeralds given to notable people: the wife of Milton S. Eisenhower (younger brother of United States President Dwight D. Eisenhower) and Queen Elizabeth II upon her coronation in 1952.The diaries are part of the Harrison Forman Papers 1931-1974 housed at the Special Collections & University Archives, University of Oregon Libraries. UWM Libraries received the dairies on a loan from the Special Collections & University Archives at the University of Oregon Libraries and digitized them to accompany the digital collection of Forman's photographs. The diaries were digitized to provide research materials for the Forman's negatives scanned as part of the NEH grant project "Saving and Sharing the AGS Library's Historic Nitrate Negative Images.
