The Greene & Greene Digital Archive contains images of drawings, architectural plans, rooms, furnishings, books, sketches, photographs, correspondence, and other historical documents related to the life and work of the architects Charles Sumner Greene and Henry Mather Greene, who headed the southern California design firm of Greene & Greene (active 1894-1922) that is often associated with the finest architecture and craftsmanship of the American Arts and Crafts Movement. The physical collections are housed in the David Berry Gamble House and in the Greene and Greene Archives at the Huntington Library, both in Pasadena, California. This material is also available digitally in the Greene and Greene Virtual Archive (http://www.usc.edu/dept/architecture/greeneandgreene/) which includes Greene and Greene materials from the University of Southern California, Columbia University, and the University of California at Berkeley.
