<strong>HAGLEY</strong> <strong>MUSEUM</strong> <strong>AND</strong> <strong>LIBRARY</strong> <strong>•</strong> <strong>ANNUAL</strong> <strong>REPORT</strong> <strong>2003</strong>


This year’s annual report features images from Hagley’s exhibit,<br />

“Machine, Monument, & Metropolis: New York’s Pennsylvania Station.”<br />

A century ago, the Pennsylvania Railroad, built an enormous station on<br />

Manhattan Island. The centerpiece of the largest private construction<br />

project of its time, the station brought together innovations in architecture,<br />

urbanism, engineering, energy, and safety and made them visible in the heart<br />

of America’s largest city.<br />

Beyond the waiting rooms, travelers entered the<br />

Concourse, a soaring space that reached from the tracks<br />

below to the sky above. Here one lined up to be checked<br />

through the gates, and here one arrived in the Big City. This<br />

was the welcome that awaited jaded natives, tourists, and<br />

ambitious young folks from small towns across America.<br />

President’s Report<br />

With great pleasure, I submit to you the Annual Report<br />

for <strong>2003</strong> of the Eleutherian Mills-Hagley Foundation.<br />

Without doubt, the signal accomplishment of the year<br />

was the creation of an ambitious, well-thought-out strategic<br />

plan to guide us through the next few years. These years<br />

will see some necessary changes at Hagley, but the Board of<br />

Trustees is confident in our moderate, reasoned approach to<br />

things new and different. We believe that our business library<br />

and archives has become one of the premier research<br />

institutions in America, and we intend to keep it that way.<br />

For the next few years, we will focus greater attention on the<br />

museum as we conduct a major “reimagining” process that,<br />

we hope, will bring a new level of excitement and<br />

interpretation to our exhibits and programs.<br />

As you will note in Hagley’s financial statement, we<br />

continue on a sound fiscal footing, the endowment having<br />

nearly recovered to the levels of the late 1990s. The Trustees<br />

and I wish to thank our sterling Investments Committee<br />

members for an extraordinary job of protecting Hagley from<br />

major losses and for positioning us for the economic recovery.<br />

These members are: Edward J. Bassett, H. B. King III, E.<br />

Matthew Brown, Edward B. du Pont, and Eugene D.<br />

Crittenden, Jr.<br />

I would also like to thank our top managers—George<br />

Vogt, director; Dan Muir, deputy director for museum<br />

administration; and Terry Snyder, deputy director for library<br />

administration—for managing an effective planning process


and bringing to the Board a fine strategic plan on<br />

schedule.<br />

Finally, I wish to thank my fellow Trustees<br />

for the honor of serving Hagley as president for<br />

the past year. The pace has been brisk, but the<br />

rewards of serving have been considerable.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Blaine T. Phillips<br />

Director’s Report<br />

This was the Year of the Plan—Hagley’s<br />

strategic plan for the next three years. Creating<br />

it was a nine-month process of intensive<br />

research, debate, and evaluation, leading<br />

eventually to unanimous approval by the Board<br />

of Trustees in October. We spent much time<br />

reviewing Hagley’s mission and experimenting<br />

with long, short, and medium-size versions. In<br />

the end, we settled on a concise mission<br />

statement that reflects actuality after decades of<br />

institutional growth and change, and we also<br />

George Vogt<br />

produced several paragraphs of elaboration that<br />

will be useful in brochures, grant applications,<br />

and public presentations.<br />

The mission statement, after editing ceased, is: Hagley<br />

Museum and Library collects, preserves, and interprets the<br />

unfolding history of American enterprise. The statement<br />

springs from fifty years of Hagley’s evolution. At inception,<br />

the founders viewed Hagley as an industrial version of<br />

Colonial Williamsburg, with the focus being the du Pont<br />

family and the DuPont Company from 1802 to 1921, when<br />

powder production in the mills ended.<br />

Although the initial plans assumed that Eleutherian<br />

Mills, the enlarged 1803 family home, would eventually<br />

become part of the museum, it was not opened to public tours<br />

until the 1960s. The gift of the residence, with its 1930s<br />

colonial revival interiors and a Renaissance ruin garden built<br />

on the site of the original powder works, stretched Hagley’s<br />

interpretational timeline forward by more than a decade and,<br />

one could argue, backward by a few centuries. The other<br />

major change was the creation of a research library and<br />

archives at Hagley, based on P. S. du Pont’s business library.<br />

The collection quickly grew to include many family papers,<br />

the DuPont Company’s archives, and eventually business<br />

records of all types and periods from the Delaware Valley and<br />

beyond. We stretched again. Today, with more than a

thousand corporate collections, a very large library, and many<br />

other related collections, Hagley is the preeminent center for<br />

research into the history of American enterprise and one of<br />

the best historic sites in America for telling that story, using<br />

the du Pont family, the water-powered mills, and the mill<br />

workers as examples.<br />

The strategic plan focuses on various things that we need<br />

to accomplish or begin before 2007. For some of these, we<br />

require approximately $750,000 to<br />

The Penn Station chief operator<br />

underwrite a series of important studies<br />

supervised a staff of six operators in to help us develop and market the<br />

the station’s own telephone exchange museum effectively and to overhaul our<br />

in this upstairs room off the main computer systems and Internet presence.<br />

concourse. This view by Philadelphia During the last quarter of the year, we<br />

photographer William Rau was taken raised most of the funding and had<br />

around 1911.<br />

excellent prospects for the rest.<br />

7<br />

Collections Stewardship<br />

One of the plan’s most significant aspects is the concern for<br />

good stewardship of what we already possess. With dozens<br />

of historic structures on the grounds, we recognize our


obligation to preserve them. We must set priorities and make<br />

difficult choices about levels and styles of maintenance.<br />

Buildings one can visit clearly take precedence over those that<br />

are “off the tour,” but we strive to keep all of our buildings<br />

in sound condition. This requires<br />

periodic, thorough preservation surveys This is a view of Penn Station’s Seventh<br />

to assess deterioration and establish a Avenue and 33rd Street facades.<br />

hierarchy of maintenance work. Under<br />

the strategic plan, we will set in motion a full survey of all<br />

historic buildings.<br />

We enlisted the help of several DuPont engineers in<br />

updating a 1987 engineering study of the Crowninshield<br />

Italian ruin garden, which was built over the exploded<br />

remains of the company’s original furnaces and feeder<br />

tunnels, leaving many uncharted voids. They reported late<br />

in the year that the gardens are unsafe and would require<br />

approximately $3 million in additional tests and safety<br />

improvements just to allow further research into the costs of<br />

restoration. Deeming other needs more pressing, the Board<br />

of Trustees ordered the garden fenced to protect visitors and<br />

8


staff and deferred further action. Never underestimate the<br />

challenge of owning a ruin!<br />

Our living collections also demand maintenance, as our<br />

arborists and gardeners can testify. Though not well known,<br />

Hagley’s flora are significant. There are more than 100 species<br />

of trees on the property, making Hagley a true arboretum. In<br />

addition, Hagley is host to a variety of endangered species.<br />

The plan calls for field surveys and improvements to a<br />

database used in managing our living<br />

resources.<br />

Penn Station’s General Waiting Room<br />

And, of course, the paper and artifact was at the center of the building. It was<br />

collections of the library, archives, and 150 feet high, as big as the nave of<br />

museum have their own special St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome.<br />

stewardship issues. The digital age is<br />

here, and we know that users of these collections want more<br />

and better access to our holdings via computers. This poses<br />

a host of questions about digitizing images of museum<br />

objects, historical photographs, and even entire manuscript<br />

collections and posting them on our web site in searchable<br />

formats. Perhaps the real challenge is devising an intelligent<br />

policy for all of Hagley’s programs. The strategic plan charters<br />

a collection committee to deal with broad policy issues and<br />

develop an overall digital strategy. Allied to this is the<br />

certainty that many of the new collections we will acquire in<br />

coming years will be mostly digital in format: CDs, DVDs,<br />

tapes, computer memory devices, and the like. To deal with<br />

this phenomenon without becoming a museum of outmoded<br />

playback technologies, we will explore hardware and software<br />

needs and consult with our corporate depositors and donors.<br />

The challenge of maintaining perpetual access to gifts of nonpaper<br />

records is at present the most difficult strategic problem<br />

for archivists, librarians, and administrators of research<br />

institutions. Hagley will also review its future space needs for<br />

books, museum objects, and records, taking into account the<br />

need for controlled environments for special collections.<br />

Security<br />

Closely allied to stewardship is the matter of security. The<br />

planning committee and Board of Trustees agreed that we<br />

require a full review of security with an eye toward both<br />

immediate and long-term needs. Hagley’s large grounds and<br />

multiple points of access pose significant challenges in<br />

maintaining good security. Our priority is the safety of staff<br />

members and visitors, with collections security a close second.<br />

10


11<br />

Organizational Development and Communications<br />

The planning team sought the comments and concerns<br />

of Hagley’s staff members at various points in the process,<br />

and our colleagues were candid in suggesting some changes.<br />

Accordingly, the plan gives great emphasis to improving<br />

communications, horizontally as well as vertically, within the<br />

organization. A new performance evaluation system, a<br />

redesigned orientation program for new employees, and better<br />

training of supervisors are all changes we expect to<br />

implement in the first year of the plan.<br />

Information Technology<br />

Computers—our blessing and bane—are central to the<br />

new world of libraries. One can argue convincingly that the<br />

three most important developments in the history of<br />

information were: Gutenberg’s invention of movable type,<br />

which changed books from unique objects into items of mass<br />

production; the advent of public lending libraries; and the<br />

creation of the Internet. If today’s students begin their<br />

research—and all too frequently end it—with a visit to the<br />

Internet, then our world of libraries and museums must adapt.


Parents, too, are using the Internet to plan vacation travel by<br />

previewing museums and other attractions before deciding<br />

whether or not to visit. We are proceeding immediately to<br />

upgrade our computer system, plan enhancements to our<br />

Internet services, and develop an Intranet.<br />

Visibility and Marketing<br />

Most of America’s museums and historic sites are still<br />

suffering attendance declines that began<br />

more than a decade ago. Hagley’s The Pennsylvania Railroad’s<br />

slippage has been less severe than “Blue Ribbon” trains ran overnight,<br />

others’ but no less concerning. Today, leaving Penn Station in the late<br />

Americans have so many leisure-time afternoon or evening and arriving<br />

options that we hardly know which way in the early morning.<br />

to turn. On an average weekend, the<br />

once nuclear family splits to the computer, cable television,<br />

soccer and ballet practice, the garden, a professional sports<br />

event, a church committee, and more. Our lives are so tightly<br />

wound, it seems, that some local participants in focus groups<br />

have told us they are unlikely ever to visit a museum like<br />

Hagley unless they book time on a vacation. Our sister<br />

institutions’ experiences confirm that attendance will<br />

continue to decline unless museums market effectively and<br />

enhance their programming. In short, we need to begin<br />

thinking like for-profit businesses that pay close attention<br />

to customers’ changing wants and needs.<br />

Our plan lays out several strategies, starting with basic<br />

research. A visitor survey late in the year contained a few<br />

surprises and some welcome news. For example, Hagley’s<br />

holiday season patrons are unlike those of typical historical<br />

museums and sites. They are older, better educated, and more<br />

affluent. In short, they match the visitor profile for art<br />

museums. They love what they see at Hagley: our overall<br />

satisfaction rating is a 6.7 on a 7 point scale. But many<br />

reported that they were “surprised” by what they found at<br />

Hagley, which indicates to us that our marketing should<br />

emphasize the variety and quality of experiences available<br />

at Hagley.<br />

Over the next two years, Hagley will conduct additional<br />

market research, develop and implement a marketing plan,<br />

commit additional funds to marketing, create a Hagley<br />

Ambassadors program to formalize a strong word-of-mouth<br />

effect, and undertake a “brand” development program.<br />

12


Improved Programming<br />

The object of our marketing is to bring more people to<br />

Hagley to enjoy the grounds, exhibits, and special events. Our<br />

fine museum staff pointed out during the planning sessions<br />

that the museum operates under several handicaps. First,<br />

some of the fixed exhibits are decades old and lack the<br />

interactive features that young visitors enjoy. Second, our<br />

“orientation” space for casual visitors as well as groups is<br />

limited to part of the small Henry Clay<br />

Mill lobby. Third, our space for changing Volunteers worked day and night<br />

exhibitions is no more than 2500 square during the weeks leading up to the<br />

feet on the second floor of the museum exhibit opening.<br />

building—certainly not enough to<br />

accommodate most traveling exhibitions for history<br />

museums.<br />

In discussions of the museum’s dilemma, the planning<br />

group realized that now was the time for an extensive<br />

rethinking of the museum. We decided to follow the visitor<br />

survey with two other projects, one a land-use study to see<br />

how we might use the property and buildings under different<br />

interpretive models, and the other a major project called<br />

“Reimagining the Museum,” which will engage most of the<br />

museum staff and others in devising new ways to excite,<br />

challenge, and educate our visitors.<br />

The plan also calls for creation of an institution-wide<br />

Program Committee, with authority to review and approve all<br />

existing and new educational offerings. The effect of this will<br />

be to make certain that events are mission-related and<br />

appropriately budgeted. Not all will make money for Hagley,<br />

nor should they, but we will understand at the outset which<br />

programs we are subsidizing and to what extent.<br />

Visitor Service Improvements<br />

Besides the cramped orientation center and inadequate<br />

gallery space in Henry Clay Mill, we lack adequate facilities<br />

for a variety of visitor needs, even at existing levels of<br />

attendance. The gift shop is so small that it cannot<br />

accommodate a full bus load of people, and visiting it requires<br />

a detour from the normal visitor route to and from the<br />

museum. The restaurant, which receives high marks from<br />

patrons, is tucked into the middle of the property and eludes<br />

some visitors. The planning team felt that the adequacy of<br />

facilities was an issue to consider as we review programming<br />

plans for the future. Very likely, we will need to construct or<br />

adapt a facility to answer these needs. 14


15<br />

Financial Strategies<br />

And, finally, the plan sets in place a process for<br />

developing Hagley’s capacity to raise necessary funds without<br />

invading the endowment. The first step will be to energize<br />

the annual Hagley Fund campaign through personal visits<br />

from the director and head of development, Jill MacKenzie.<br />

This will be closely followed by efforts to build membership<br />

and create a program of planned giving.<br />

At the center of the tunnel is a<br />

Each of these is a desirable step in<br />

rocker arm, used to place the segments preparing for a capital campaign two or<br />

of the iron tunnel rings that were<br />

three years hence, which will likely focus<br />

bolted together.<br />

on museum needs and facilities.<br />

These items are the focus of our<br />

strategic plan for the coming three years.<br />

Highlights of the Year<br />

No summary can adequately describe the broad scope of<br />

Hagley activities and the contributions of its many staff<br />

members and volunteers during <strong>2003</strong>, but here is a<br />

representative sampling of notable occurrences.<br />

With the arrival in <strong>2003</strong> of Terry Snyder, who assumed the<br />

post of Deputy Director for Library Adminstration, Hagley<br />

returned to the familiar pattern of an institutional director and<br />

two deputy directors, one each for the museum and library.<br />

Dr. Snyder, who holds a doctorate in American studies from the<br />

University of Pennsylvania, came to us from a distinguished<br />

career in archives and records management at Penn.<br />

There were a number of significant and exciting additions<br />

to our holdings. We purchased a large collection of items<br />

relating to the 1876 Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia.<br />

These include two elephant folios of photographic prints,<br />

three oversized scrapbooks filled with rare ephemera, and<br />

more than 100 imprint titles. We speculate that the pristine<br />

collection was assembled by one of the commissioners or<br />

officers of the Exposition. The acquisition significantly<br />

augments our already rich resources about world fairs and<br />

expositions, which will be the basis of a major museum<br />

exhibition in 2005. We also added to the archives 41 linear<br />

feet of gifts and purchases and 82 linear feet of deposits.<br />

Some of the notable materials include the records of the<br />

Michter Whiskey Company, an old Pennsylvania firm, and the<br />

records of Herbert Northrup’s Industrial Research Unit at the<br />

Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.


17<br />

The library staff joined the museum staff in the creation<br />

of a major temporary exhibit called “Machine, Monument, &<br />

Metropolis: New York’s Pennsylvania Station.” Drawing<br />

upon Hagley’s rich visual and textual archives of the<br />

Pennsylvania Railroad, the exhibit tells the story of<br />

Pennsylvania Station’s design, construction, and operation,<br />

as well as the reasons for its demise in the 1960s. Thanks to<br />

numerous train buffs and tireless volunteer modelers who<br />

labored for several years on the project, the centerpiece is a<br />

detailed model of the station with working HO-gauge trains<br />

underneath. The opening of the exhibit drew a large crowd,<br />

and the exhibit itself received favorable notice across the<br />

region. Generously funded by Hagley members Larry and<br />

Laurie Seese, it will remain in place through 2004.<br />

Almost as long in planning and execution was Hagley’s<br />

first major television documentary, A Separate Place: The<br />

Schools P. S. du Pont Built. The program documents the<br />

efforts to build quality schools for Delaware’s African<br />

American students in the days of segregation, and it traces<br />

the impact on Delaware schools of the famous Supreme Court<br />

case, Brown v. Board of Education, which declared


segregation unconstitutional. The executive producer was<br />

Jeanne Nutter; and Hagley Center Associate Director Roger<br />

Horowitz, former staff member Michael Nash, and Kendrick<br />

Simmons served as co-producers. Hagley introduced the fiftyfive<br />

minute film with a gala reception at the Hotel DuPont in<br />

February and arranged for it to be shown on WHYY, the<br />

Philadelphia-Wilmington public television station. We<br />

distributed a shorter version, suitable for classroom use, to<br />

schools in Delaware. The project received<br />

generous funding from the Longwood Workers caulked the seams between<br />

Foundation, Wilmington Trust, which the tunnel rings, after which it was lined<br />

supported the gala premiere, and the with concrete. Afreican Americans and<br />

Delaware Humanities Forum, a state Italian immigrants made up the bulk<br />

program of the National Endowment for of the tunnel crews.<br />

the Humanities. On many occasions<br />

throughout the year, Roger Horowitz presented the<br />

documentary to general audiences, teachers, and professional<br />

organizations, each time to great acclaim.<br />

In <strong>2003</strong>, we celebrated the 200th anniversary of<br />

Eleutherian Mills by matching a challenge grant for major<br />

restoration work. Thanks to the Longwood Foundation, which<br />

offered a $250,000 challenge grant, and du Pont family<br />

members, who exceeded the challenge by contributing nearly<br />

$500,000, Hagley will begin major repairs in 2004. Initially<br />

conceived as a project to upgrade wiring, the scope of work<br />

expanded significantly as we found roof, stucco, and<br />

woodwork problems. We will also replace the aging fire<br />

detection system and extend the coverage to key outbuildings.<br />

The residence will reopen to the public in early 2005.<br />

Like many museums across the nation, Hagley is taking<br />

fresh looks at programming and marketing. Our new Program<br />

Committee reviewed existing programs and made some<br />

changes. Hagley dropped the spring Storybook Garden Party<br />

and decided to do the same with Summer Science Days and<br />

the Festival of Museum Shopping after a drop in attendance.<br />

The museum began a spring Civil War Family Day event as<br />

a test and, for the first time, included the upper property in<br />

the August Bike and Hike evenings, much to the delight of<br />

our visitors. We will expand Bike and Hikes into a second<br />

summer month in 2004. Other continuing programs, such<br />

as the annual Hagley Car Show, the summer Creek Kids<br />

program, and the winter Invention Convention remained<br />

hugely popular, with Car Show attendance rising 23 percent<br />

over last year.<br />

18


19<br />

During the summer, our long-vacant New Century Power<br />

House, that formerly housed our Hydroelectric Plant, became<br />

the new site of “Easy Does It!,” a popular demonstration of<br />

simple machines. I suspect it is every child’s dream to place<br />

mother or father on the elevator and crank them skyward,<br />

thanks to the efficiency of gears and pulleys. Previously<br />

housed in one of the old mill buildings, which lacked<br />

adequate heating and cooling, the exhibit now occupies prime<br />

space in a beautifully refitted building near Henry Clay Mill.<br />

This project, like the basic carpentry of the Pennsylvania<br />

Station exhibit, the creation of new office space at the Hall<br />

of Records for the museum curator and registrar, and the<br />

refurbishment of the scholars’ quarters in the Belin House<br />

benefited greatly from the many talents of our Service<br />

Division staff members.<br />

One of our signal successes in new programming was a<br />

fall harvest party for the Golden Pheasants, the name we give<br />

to our “young and young at heart” member organization.<br />

With the combined appeal of hayrides, games, barbecue,<br />

ghost stories, and more, the event drew 250 attendees and<br />

brought us twenty-five new family memberships. The


planning committee included Henry B. du Pont IV, Brad and<br />

Priscilla du Pont, and Brian and Tracy Fuchs.<br />

Another program that drew a large audience was a lecture<br />

by Jon Kukla, author of A Wilderness So Immense, a new<br />

book about the Louisiana Purchase.<br />

Kukla proved to be as fine a speaker as The train announcer occupied<br />

he is a writer. He underscored the an elevated booth overlooking<br />

contributions of Pierre Samuel du Pont de the Concourse.<br />

Nemours, an unofficial emissary for<br />

Thomas Jefferson to Napoleon’s circle, to the successful<br />

conclusion of the purchase treaty. Because of the strong<br />

response to the lecture and numerous requests for similar<br />

programs, we are considering the creation of a lecture series<br />

in 2004 or 2005.<br />

Wilmington Trust, our corporate sponsor for Fireworks<br />

at Hagley, decided to celebrate its 100th anniversary with a<br />

special bang. At the Trust’s request, Hagley arranged a night<br />

of fireworks just for the company’s employees and their<br />

families—about 4,000 people in all. The response was so<br />

overwhelmingly positive that Wilmington Trust and Hagley<br />

20


have agreed to bring back this third night of fireworks in 2004<br />

with the possibility of it becoming an annual bank event.<br />

Much of what Hagley offers requires special marketing<br />

of events. In <strong>2003</strong>, we joined forces with sister institutions<br />

in the Brandywine Valley and several hotels and restaurants<br />

to try a very different kind of marketing. With a grant from<br />

the Delaware Tourism Office and additional funds from the<br />

partners, we marketed hotel and ticket packages for visits to<br />

“Chateau Country.” Under the direction<br />

One of the granite eagles from Penn of Hagley Marketing Manager Suzanna<br />

Station now has a home at Philadelphia’s Rogers, the concept proved popular<br />

30th Street Station.<br />

beyond our expectations, and the<br />

partners renewed for a second year and<br />

increased the advertising budget.<br />

And finally, a small tribute. Sometimes, as Sherlock<br />

Holmes noted, the significant thing is the dog that does not<br />

bark in the night. Our business office consists of three people:<br />

Jay Stellenberg, the business manager; Peggy Teofilak, and<br />

David Alston. They routinely deal with thousands of purchase<br />

transactions and checks for contributions and membership;<br />

they staff our active Investments Committee and execute its<br />

directives; they oversee the museum shop and the restaurant;<br />

and they manage the entire Hagley budget, providing regular<br />

reports to the director and Board of Trustees. They do all this<br />

with no fanfare and no mistakes of any significance. Year in<br />

and year out, our auditors find little to bark about, and for<br />

that we salute the business office staff.<br />
