Description: Franziska Marie Boas was the youngest of six children of anthropologist Franz Boas and Marie Krackowizer. These reminiscences of her father, Franz Boas (1858-1942), were the result of an interview by John R. Cole of the Oral History Research Office at Columbia University in 1972. Portions of her life are highlighted but the primary focus is on her father, Franz Boas, with numerous comments on his students and colleagues. This is a typed transcript of the original interview reels in the Oral History Research Office of Columbia University, now the Columbia Center for Oral History.
