The bronze statue of The Scarecrow in Oz Park. In 1976, Oz Park was named in honor of former Chicago resident Lyman Frank Baum (1856-1919), the author of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Baum settled in Chicago in 1891 not too far from what is now the park. In 1939, the movie production of The Wizard of Oz, immortalized Baum's classic work of fiction. In the early 1990s, John Kearney was commissioned to create a Tin Man sculpture, installed in October 1995, the Cowardly Lion, installed in May 2001 and the7 ft./800 lb. cast bronze Scarecrow, installed June 2005. In Spring 2007 Dorothy & Toto joined their friends in the park. Other elements which celebrate Oz Park's theme, include the "Emerald Garden" and "Dorothy's Playlot." Chicago, Illinois
