The Takenah, the Albany College yearbook (Albany, Ore.: Albany College, 1911), includes three photographs and several written references to Lucille Hart.

A brief description of Hart and two photos, one as a member of the junior class, the other a baby picture, are on p. 18-19 of The Takenah.

"H," or Alberta Lucille Hart, the subject of Gilbert's history, at Albany College, Oregon, 1911.^[11]

LUCILLE HART. The remainder of the Junior class are justly proud of their "agitator." She is very active in the Student Body affairs and is a famous debater. We hesitate to mention it, but we fear that her dreams of blessed spinsterhood will be only dreams. She "appreciates" tennis and all athletic sports, but her use of English is "fierce;" this is the source of daily trial and concern to Miss Irvine's soul. In the words of -"With all her faults, we love her still."^[12]

A description of the junior class (p. 20) says that it had dwindled from seventeen "Freshmen" to three "Juniors," all women: "[Lucille] Hart, [Eva] Cushman, [Katherine] Stuart." These women include "the most graceful dancer, the most expert mandolinist, and the finest soprano soloist in the college." Hart is said to preside over all the class meetings. "They have also decided--as a part of their duty to the world and the rising generation--to discard all rats and artificial puffs, and to adopt the dress-reform style of clothing. They have not yet worn their new costumes in public, though they contemplate doing so soon."

"The Takenah", page 51, presents a photograph of the "Editorial Staff" , including Lucille Hart and Eva Cushman.

Lucille Hart. "My Irish Colleen". Poem reprinted from the Albany College Student, March 1909, where the author's name was not listed.

Lucille Hart. "An Idyll of a Country Childhood. "The Takenah" (Albany College Yearbook) 1911). By now Hart's habits of male dress outside school were well-known, and this story frankly described his early life and its freedom to dress and live as a boy.

Dr. Gilbert's report mentions that "H" was active at Albany College as an oratorical debator, a manager of the "College Annual," and as a leader of the Women's Mandolin Club. Dr. Gilbert's report describes "H's" sexual-affectional liaison at Albany College with a young woman "classmate" whose initials are given as "E.C." This is clearly Eva Cushman whose pictures and description appear in The Takenah (pages, 18-19, 20, 51).

1911-1912

Lucille Hart is listed in the Albany [Oregon] City Directory, 1911-12, as a student, Albany College, rooms 234S Calapooia.^[14]

1918

Hart consults Dr. J. Allen Gilbert, in Portland, Oregon, about a phobia -- a fear of loud noises. This results in Hart undergoing numbers of therapy sessions with Gilbert in which they discuss her sexual attraction and acts with women, and she prepares a chronological account of her life.^[24]

1918, February

Hart marries Inez Stark in California, using the name Robert Allen Bamford, Jr.^[25]

1918, August

Dr. Gilbert says of "H": "In August [1918] she [Hart] underwent a complete physical examination, with subsequent laparotomy in which the uterus was removed. After the operation she assumed male attire." (The excision of the uterus is now generally referred to as a hysterectomy.) As Gilbert describes it: "Her hair was cut, a complete male outfit was secured and having previously identified herself with the Red Cross, she made her exit as a female and started as a male with a new hold on life and ambitions worthy of her high degree and intellectuality." ^[26]

Using the name Alan L., Hart begins a medical practice in Gardiner, Oregon, the setting, later, of Hart's first book, Dr. Mallory. As Gilbert describes it: "She 'made good' in every way, until she was recognized by a former associate under the operation of that fanciful law of chance, which threw one of her former intimate associates across her tracks. Then the hounding process began which our modern social organization can carry on to such perfection and refinement against her own members."^[27]

1919-1920, Autumn

Hart practiced medicine in Southern Montana. "Did operations in barns and houses and spent my spare time reading medical journals. trying to learn what I hadn't been taught in medical school. . . . The crash of the autumn of 1920 wiped out most of the Montana farmers and stockmen, and me a1ong with them."^[28]

1920, October

1920-1921

Jonathan Ned Katz reports information from the director of the Albany (Oregon) Public Library, Wayne L. Suggs: "The Albany Democrat Herald of 1920 or 1921 ran an article on Dr. Hart and his sex change." Katz says: "My guess is that this story appeared sometime between Jan. and Sept., 1920, as Dr. Gilbert (see GAH) mentions Hart's exposure in his medical journal article of Oct., 1920. A microfilm of the Albany Democrat Herald is in the Albany, Ore., Public Library.^[29]

1921

Hart's grandparents' obituaries, from 1921 and 1924, both list Hart as a grandson. <How is Hart's name listed?> ^[30]

1921, June 10

According to a reminiscence piece in the Halls Summit News of June 10, 1921:

"Young Hart was different, even then. Boys' clothes just felt natural. Lucille always regarded herself as a boy and begged her family to cut her hair and let her wear trousers. Lucille disliked dolls but enjoyed playing doctor. She hated traditional girl tasks, preferring farm work with the menfolk instead. The self reliance that became a lifelong trait was evident early: once when she accidentally chopped off her fingertip with an axe, Lucille dressed it herself, saying nothing about it to the family."^[31]

1921-1923

Hart lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and does x-ray work at the Albuquerque sanitarium where "chest diagnosis fascinated me." Inez Stark leaves her marriage with Alan L. Hart in 1923.^[32]

Reviews:

Kirkus

A searching into the motivation of a doctor, and his complete sacrifice of self to his profession, in a spirit of dedication. The story takes Dr. Mallory through childhood, with the growing sense of vocation, through medical school, internship in the hospital, the panic of emergency work in his inexperience. Then his departure for a logging town in Oregon, his uphill fight for clean medicine against unscrupulous competitors, his sacrifice of self to the poor and needy. An unsuccessful venture into matrimony seems the one non-authentic note. An inspirational story with a definite vocational interest, for as a novel it is not in any way significant.

Kirkus' Review.

Dr. Mallory piled up good sales figures. Here again Alan Hart has tapped his knowledge of the inside picture of a doctor's life for a story of a research man, whose investigations in the field of pernicious anemia are cancelled through the jealousy and pettiness of the head of the West Coast institution where he is working. Comes east -- approaches success -- and finds his interest fading as the problem recedes. Picture of medical laboratory -- life, personnel, human problems; romance and adventure of science Men in White audience. Pub Date: March 27th, 1936. Publisher: Norton. ^[46]

1937

The Lives of Men, a novel by Alan Hart, is published by W. W. Norton. A reviewer in The Saturday Review of Literature thought that "as a doctor, Hart knows surprisingly little about women".

Reviews: Lucy Tomkins, New York Times Book Review, May 16, 1937. Tomkins called it "a doctor's eye view of the social and economic history of the Pacific Northwest from 1890 to 1909." Focusing on Fairharbor, "a frontier lumber city on Puget Sound," the novel traced Dr .Jim Winthrop's nineteen years of practice in a place where the "lumber king" and a "one-time saloonkeeper and political boss ran the town, ran the press, ran the workers," and almost everyone was motivated by "Greed and lust."[6-7]

Jonathan Ned Katz adds: In the Lives of Men presents a detailed picture of class structure and conflict, and the social history of Fairharbor, including references to prostitution, marriage. male-female relationships, violence against women, eroticism, puritanism, birth control, childbirth, the history of surgery, health care, and radiation treatment, the anti-Chinese agitation, worker discontent, democracy and the lack of it, American imperialism, capitalism. populism, and socialism.

Katz adds: A few passing references allude vaguely to homosexuality, or the suspicion of it.

Mrs. Deborah Winforth of Fairharbor attends a Purity Congress at which prostitution is discussed and, it is said, "Even the hint that Catholic choir boys were given to abominable though anonymous practices did no more than give her a temporary shock.,,[171] (The word "abominable" hints that the reference is to what was called "mutual masturbation.")

Speaking of venereal disease among Alaskan Klondikers, a character says: "'It's just when there aren't many women in a country things get spread around pretty fast.' "[231]

Another character wonders why Dr. Winthrop never married, and spends most of his time with another confirmed bachelor.328] Dr. Winthrop remarks to this same bachelor on the difference in sexual values between 1907 and 1895:" 'In the good old days our religious friends would have accused you of being a second Oscar Wilde.' "[376]

A close friendship between two boys, Malcolm and Geoffrey, is portrayed as having homoerotic elements; see pp. 192; 310-11, 315-16; 360; 426. Geoffrey, born without one arm, is brought up by a father who refuses to turn his son into a "mollycoddle" or "sissy." [191;202] Geoffrey learns to accept his "deformity," but feels strongly the "unfair discrimination" and "injustice" of the treatment accorded those physically different. [208-09; 224] As a young man Geoffrey identifies and sides with the workers against his capitalist father, becomes ""a radical, a Socialist," and a public soapbox speaker for the International International Workers of the World (the Wobblies), who urges: " 'proletarians unite.'"[342; 402-03] Once, in the woods, Geoffrey spies carved on a log the words: "'Passing the love of women, 1891.'" [359; 426-27] Geoffrey eventually falls in love with a woman, but always feels different, an outsider who identifies with workers and outcasts. Geoffrey tells Dr. Winthrop: " 'It's enough to drive a fellow crazy to be different, to know he can't ever be like other men .... I see people looking at me, with a funny expression on their faces. And that makes me hate them. It's like having a pack of dogs after you. You run and run, and all the time you know that in the end the pack will get you, because you're different.' "[416] When Malcolm wants to interfere with Geoffrey's radical political involvement, Dr. Winthrop urges that Geoffrey be left alone: " 'The big struggle of the future ... is going to be between the haves and the have-nots. Maybe Geoffrey has picked the right side, maybe the long pocketbook won't always have the power it has today.'"[427] Geoffrey is finally shot to death while urging" 'Workers of the World, unite!'" [444].^[48]

Of "Miss Ballantine," Geoffrey's teacher, it is said: "For reasons of her own she had never married and had, consequently, a fund of affection which she found ... going out to the crippled boy."[337]^[49]

The reviewer described the book as recording the "triumphs and trials of a varied assortment of doctors working in neighboring towns on Puget Sound during the difficult years of the depression." The story focused on Dr. John Finlay, a man in his early fifties, whose struggle to create "a cooperative, voluntary health insurance association" is "bitterly resented and opposed by all the mercenary and many of the admirable members of the local medical society."

Thomas Y. Crowell Company publishes Jonathan [Ned] Katz's Gay American History: Lesbians and Gay Men in the U.S. A., with a section discussing and reprinting large parts of J. Allen Gilbert: "Homosexuality and Its Treatment," October 1920. Gilbert's references to "H" at Albany College and Stanford University were researched by Katz and revealed that the subject of Gilbert's article, "H", was Alberta Lucille Hart. Katz's interpretation of Hart's life claimed her as a "lesbian", an interpretation he lated rejected in favor of studying how Hart and others understood Hart at different times in her/his life.^[59]

1977

Jonathan Ned Katz's inquiry to the public library in Albany, Oregon, elicits the information that "as Dr. Alan Hart, Alberta Lucille had published a number of books and technical papers, that Hart's widow was still living in a Connecticut city, and that she corresponded with a friend in Albany. Subsequent attempts to learn more about Hart's life by contacting her widow were discouraged by her. The message passed on by her friend in Albany was: 'Let that all be passed now. She is older and does not want any more heart ache now.'"^[60]
