Ida McCain
Ida McCain (1884–after 1937) was an early 20th-century American architect active on the West Coast at a time when there were few women in the profession. ==Early life and education== Ida Florence McCain was born in Fort Collins, Colorado, on August 27, 1884, to James Milton and Hannah H. Oelrich McCain. She was one of six children, with brothers Robert, Walter, and William Arthur (who later changed his name to Arthur William), and sisters Emma and Edda (who later changed her name to Eda).〔 Her father died when she was 12 and her mother remarried, becoming Hannah King. She attended public school and then at the age of 15 entered Colorado State Agricultural College. After her first year in college, while still undecided as to her future career, she discovered that an architectural course had been introduced and decided to take it.〔 Despite her high marks, she was initially turned down for the course, but she persevered and eventually got in, the only woman to register for the course.〔 Although she never got much more formal training than this and never obtained an architect's license at all, she went on to become an extremely successful San Francisco Bay Area architect and builder.〔〔
