Boyd Philip Linnaes Boyd (October 8, 1900 – September 9, 1989) was the first mayor of Palm Springs, California, a regent of the University of California and the namesake of the Deep Canyon Desert Research Center. ==Personal life== Philip Boyd was born October 8, 1900 in Richmond, Indiana, the son of lawyer and corporate executive Linnaes Cox Boyd and Mary Thomas Spencer, daughter of prominent businessman William F. Spencer.〔 Boyd fell ill and was forced to drop out of Wabash College where he was a student. In 1921 his parents brought him to Palm Springs in the hope the dry climate would help him recover. According to Boyd, his long illness forced him to consider what he would do with his life once he was healed. Boyd started work as a secretary for the Palm Springs Chamber of Commerce and opened the first branch of Bank of America in Palm Springs. During the Great Depression Boyd was able to delve into real estate, buying ranch lands in the area of Deep Canyon. In 1953 Boyd, who was on the Board of Trustees for the Palm Springs Art Museum, leased property for a nature reserve now part of the Living Desert Zoo and Gardens. Boyd encouraged faculty from the newly-opened University of California, Riverside to use his nature reserve for research only to realize his public nature reserve was not a fitting setting for academic research. In 1958 Boyd donated another parcel of land and funding to purchase a total of in Deep Canyon to open what is now the research center. The University of California has since acquired other contiguous property to expand the research area to its current size. The acquired lands were named after Boyd in 1961. Clark Kerr (then the President of the University) and Herman Spieth (the chancellor of the Riverside campus) commented that the reservation would allow ongoing research to continue in ecosystems threatened by urban sprawl. Boyd and his wife donated funds in 1966 to support the construction of UCR's carillon tower.〔 Boyd's memoir is archived at UCR in the Special Collections Department of Rivera Library. Boyd and his wife also donated a set of silver Towle salt and pepper shakers to the Indianapolis Museum of Art. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Philip L.
