Biography

Day was born on March 17, 1847 in Brooklyn, New York City; and he moved to California when 8 years old. His grandfather, Jeremiah Day, was president of Yale University, and his father, Sherman Day, was surveyor-general of California and one of the founders of the College of California, predecessor to the University of California, Berkeley.

Day graduated from the College of California in 1868, and received his MA degree from the same institution in 1874.[2] (He later received an honorary LLD from the college in 1910.) In 1875, he married Grace Wakefield from Cambridge, Massachusetts, and they had one daughter.[1]

As an architect, he designed some of San Francisco's finest buildings, including the City of Paris building, Union Trust building, and Gump's department store; and a number of fine houses in Oakland, California, including the Treadwell Mansion. He designed Architecture Building and Metallurgical Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley.[3] He was a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects. Clinton was the great-grandson of American founding father Roger Sherman.
