  • Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
    Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability.

In a world where the word where the word “legend” can get overused, let’s be clear. Carl Reiner was a legend. He started in comedy during WWII. He performed on stage, on the radio, on TV and movies. He did it all. He was on TV at a time when TV was this weird new thing that nobody was really sure what to do with. All that’s pretty amazing. The important thing is, though, that the stuff that Carl worked on—it’s really funny, still. He created The Dick Van Dyke Show, one of the greatest TV shows of all time. He co-wrote and directed Steve Martin’s The Jerk. And, you know, his best buddy was Mel Brookes—best buddy and collaborator. The two of them hung out together pretty much every day. Carl Reiner kept working right up until the end, too. One of my favorite recent things he did was on the television show Parks and Recreation. He played Ned Jones, the president of Pawnee Seniors United.

    Lily Tomlin, one of America's foremost comediennes, continues to venture across an ever-widening range of media, starring in television, theater, motion pictures, Lily Tomlin animation, and video. Throughout her extraordinary entertainment career, Tomlin has received numerous awards, including: six Emmys; a Tony for her one woman Broadway show, “Appearing Nitely;” a second Tony as Best Actress, Drama Speech Topics Desk Award and Outer Critics’ Circle Award for her one woman performance in Jane Wagner’s “The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe;” a CableAce Award for Executive Producing the film adaptation of The Search; a Humor Grammy for her comedy album, Comedian This is a Recording, as well as nominations for her subsequent albums Modern Celebrity Scream, And That's the Truth, and On Stage; and two Peabody Awards—the first for the ABC television special, Edith Ann’s Christmas: Just Say Noel and the second for narrating and executive producing the HBO film, The Celluloid Closet. Tomlin was born in Detroit, Michigan and grew up in a working-class neighborhood on the outskirts of one of the city's most affluent areas. Although she claims she wasn't funny as a child, Tomlin admits she "knew who was and lifted all their material right off the TV screen." Her favorites included Lucille Ball, Bea Lillie, Imogene Coca, and Jean Carroll, one of the first female stand-ups on The Ed Sullivan Show. After high school, Tomlin enrolled at Wayne State University to study medicine, but her elective courses in theater arts compelled her to leave college to become a performer in local coffee houses.

  • Cal Poly Arts Brings Lilly Tomlin to PAC October 16
    California Polytechnic State University Sept. 23, 2004 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: LISA WOSKE (805) 756-7110 Cal Poly Arts Brings Lilly Tomlin to PAC October 16 SAN LUIS OBISPO -- Fans remember her from TV’s “Laugh-In” and Hollywood’s “Nashville” and “9 to 5.” They’ve seen her Tony Award-winning Broadway show and now watch her in “The West Wing.” They hear her voice urging them to ride on “The Magic School Bus.” On Saturday, October 16, 2004 at 8 p.m., Cal Poly Arts presents one of America’s favorite comediennes in her one-woman show, “An Evening with Lily Tomlin,” on stage at the Christopher Cohan Center. An audience question and answer session follows the performance. Lily Tomlin launched a successful comedy career with the chatty 6-year old Edith Ann and the irascible telephone operator, Ernestine. For over four decades, she has starred in television, theater, motion pictures, animation, and video -- all to critical and popular acclaim. Tomlin grew up in a working-class Detroit neighborhood and although she claims she wasn't funny as a child, Tomlin admits she "knew who was (funny) and lifted all their material right off the TV screen." Early influences included Lucille Ball, Bea Lillie, Imogene Coca, and Jean Carroll, one of the first female stand-ups on "The Ed Sullivan Show." After high school, Tomlin enrolled at Wayne State University to study medicine, but her elective courses in theater arts compelled her to leave college to become a performer in local coffee houses. She moved to New York in 1965 and built a strong following with appearances at landmark clubs such as The Improvisation, Cafe Au Go Go, and the Upstairs at the Downstairs.
