Living in Monterey
Monterey, California
Monterey had been famous for the abundant fishery in Monterey Bay but that changed in the 1950s, when the local fishery business collapsed due to overfishing. A few of the old fishermen's cabins from the early twentieth century have been preserved as they originally stood along Cannery Row. But the city's noteworthy history is not limited to fishing. Monterey has been a center for California painters. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries such painters as Arthur Frank Mathews, Armin Hansen, Xavier Martinez, Rowena Meeks Abdy and Percy Gray lived or visited Monterey in order to pursue painting in the style of either En plein air or Tonalism. In addition to attracting painters, Monterey has a history of noted authors who have lived in and around the Monterey area. Such authors include John Steinbeck, Robinson Jeffers, Robert A. Heinlein, Henry Miller, Ed Ricketts, and Robert Louis Stevenson.
