Hiram Johnson, the reform governor of California from 1911 to 1917, is shown here standing in front of a state map, a fitting backdrop for a man whose career was built on campaigns against the railroad and the political machine that had dominated the state. Johnson rose to fame as a Progressive Republican who broke the Southern Pacific Railroad's hold on state politics, and he went on to win a seat in the United States Senate in 1916, where he served until his death in 1945. The map behind him points to the statewide scope of his reforms, which reached from the capital to the farthest counties.
