History of Alcatraz Island in San Francisco Bay

If you don’t know already, Alcatraz Island became a notorious federal prison during the years 1934 to 1963 whilst it was operating. The prison was known for being uniquely harsh due to the surrounding waters of San Francisco Bay and bad weather. This maximum-security penitentiary housed notorious criminals such as “Scarface” aka Al Capone and Robert ‘Birdman of Alcatraz’ Stroud just to name a few.

Alcatraz Island is also known as The Rock because no inmate ever successfully escaped – but not without trying! One of the most famous escape cases was in 1962 when three inmates broke from their cells and escaped into the water. Frank Morris and brothers John and Clarence Anglin managed disappeared into the water and were presumed drowned after fleeing the island.
