The Mary and Arthur Ackerman Aerial Photograph Collection consists of eleven black-and-white large format aerial photographs. Ten photographs show areas of the Las Vegas Strip along Las Vegas Boulevard in Las Vegas, Nevada. The remaining photograph shows the site of Disneyland in Anaheim, California.
On November 28, 1986, James Courtney interviewed Norman Christiansen (born 1931 in Red Lodge, Montana) about his experiences while living in Las Vegas, Nevada. Christiansen first describes his family and background before talking about moving to Las Vegas in 1956 after graduating college in Montana. Christiansen, who worked at the Nevada Test Site for two years and eventually became a teacher at various schools, talks about the various changes he has noticed over the years in Las Vegas, including those in climate, pollution, economy, occupation, and standard of living. Christiansen also discusses his political involvement, his hobbies, the advantages and disadvantages of living in Las Vegas, historical events in Las Vegas, and atomic testing in Nevada.
