We are grateful to the Zakheim family and in particular to Nathan Zakheim for donating this unique collection to the University.
The Bernard Zakheim murals were captured in Toland Hall and Health Sciences West lecture halls at UCSF.
Aaron Jackson, a PhD candidate in the History of Health Sciences at UCSF, conducted extensive research on the murals and wrote the narrative.
The UCSF Archives and Special Collections team provided additional research and support for this project.
