David Frazer
No full textIn 1978 David Frazer began teaching at the Rhode Island School of Design, and he is still there in 2016, as head of the painting department. Frazer received his BFA from RISD in 1970, and as a participant in the European Honors Program, he traveled in Italy and The Netherlands, becoming influenced by the painting techniques of Giotto and Piero della Francesca. He later became the chief critic of the RISD/Rome program, the first alumnus to do so. Frazer obtained an MA in painting from the University of New Mexico. Collage and abstract expressionist painting inform his aesthetic and structural process; although his paintings allude to printing or transfer techniques, they do not use them. His work is primarily abstract and improvisational and plays with symbolic images. Frazer’s paintings have been exhibited nationally and internationally, including in South Korea and China, where he has also been a visiting artist and lecturer.

Interview with William Frazer
No full textAn interview in March 1992 with Dr. William Frazer, professor of physics at UC Berkeley (emeritus since 1996).
As UC’s senior vice president for academic affairs (1983-1991), he oversaw the planning for Keck I, the first of the W. M. Keck 10-meter telescopes on Mauna Kea. He discusses the offer of funding from the Hoffman Foundation and its eventual withdrawal and replacement with Keck Foundation money. He recalls his interactions with UC president David Gardner, Caltech president Marvin L. (Murph) Goldberger, and Caltech provost Rochus E. (Robbie) Vogt, as the UC/Caltech partnership was put together; plans to have a Keck telescope and a Hoffman telescope; the uneasiness of the UC astronomers at the prospect of an equal partnership with Caltech; and the disagreement over the siting of the telescope’s headquarters in Hawaii
