Willoughby: Fall color helping Aspen become famous (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A recent August edition of The Aspen Times featured a large ad for Freeman’s-American Auction, with a 1951 large black and white photo of Maroon Bells by Ansel Adams. The story behind the photo illustrates the Aspen Institute/International Design Conference creative attempts to attract visitors. The Aspen Institute’s summer seminars began in 1950 with a Design Conference and a Great Books Seminar. In 1951, it turned into the International Design Conference. In planning for it, the idea came up a
Willoughby: International Design Conference precursor to Aspen Ideas and Aspen Design Conference (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Aspen Ideas Festival is better known, attracts a larger crowd and has many speakers, but it had a precursor: the International Design Conference (IDCA). Most identify it as a conference for designers and architects, but it was much broader, with annual themes that featured an eclectic assortment of guest speakers. The IDCA lasted 54 years, from 1950 to 2004, and â using it as a model â the Aspen Design Conference (next week) has resurrected the format.  I was working at the tent for th
Willoughby: Beavers â two sides of long legislative history (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I became enamored with beavers at a very young age. Our family picnicked often in the summer along Castle Creek, about two thirds of the way to Ashcroft.

The history of our interactions with beavers exposed in Colorado newspapers chronicles a two-sided relationship. The first reporting came in 1885, from W
Willoughby: Reflections on ’60s growth (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Aspen grew and evolved rapidly in the 1960s, especially the second half. It was an energetic period. Here are a few examples expounding the rapid changes. The Aspen Times, then a weekly, usually had 16 pages in 1960. In 1965, it was up to 18 to 20, and in 1969, it grew to 32 to 34. Compared to today, if you take out national news, there was much more to report locally. The advertising increased those years but, in relation to the total space, was less than today. There were no pages of photos o
Willoughby: Important changes during the decade before Aspenâs founding (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Aspen’s founding in 1879 came after about 14 years of vast changes in America. It went from isolated cities and hamlets scattered across the continent to interconnected locals, all in tune to what was going on. That expanded investment capital and distributed it anywhere profitability seemed possible. By 1865, there were already 2,500 newspapers in America, more than the rest of the world combined. A common practice was that papers subscribed to other papers and passed on stories. Public orator
