From Wikipedia: "Charles Augustus Keeler (October 7, 1871 July 31, 1937) was an American author, poet, ornithologist and advocate for the arts, particularly architecture. Keeler Avenue in Berkeley, California is named after him. The desire of Keeler to promote locally architecture integrated with nature, in keeping with Arts and Crafts movement ideals, prompted creation of the Hillside Club in 1898. Keeler became its first secretary (1902 1903) and second president (1903 1905). He was a member of the Author's Club of London and the New York Author's Club. In 1921-23 he was president of the California Writers Club. He was friends with many influential naturalists and outdoorsmen, including John Muir, John Burroughs, painter William Keith and developer Duncan McDuffie men who today would be called environmentalists. He was a charter member of the Sierra Club."
