  • Mixed Race Capital: Cultural Producers and Asian American Mixed Race Identity from the Late Nineteenth to Twentieth Century
    MIXED RACE CAPITAL: CULTURAL PRODUCERS AND ASIAN AMERICAN MIXED RACE IDENTITY FROM THE LATE NINETEENTH TO TWENTIETH CENTURY A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF UNIVERSITY OF HAWAIʻI AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN AMERICAN STUDIES MAY 2018 By Stacy Nojima Dissertation Committee: Vernadette V. Gonzalez, Chairperson Mari Yoshihara Elizabeth Colwill Brandy Nālani McDougall Ruth Hsu Keywords: Mixed Race, Asian American Culture, Merle Oberon, Sadakichi Hartmann, Winnifred Eaton, Bardu Ali Acknowledgements This dissertation was a journey that was nurtured and supported by several people. I would first like to thank my dissertation chair and mentor Vernadette Gonzalez, who challenged me to think more deeply and was able to encompass both compassion and force when life got in the way of writing. Thank you does not suffice for the amount of time, advice, and guidance she invested in me. I want to thank Mari Yoshihara and Elizabeth Colwill who offered feedback on multiple chapter drafts. Brandy Nālani McDougall always posited thoughtful questions that challenged me to see my project at various angles, and Ruth Hsu’s mentorship and course on Asian American literature helped to foster my early dissertation ideas. Along the way, I received invaluable assistance from the archive librarians at the University of Riverside, University of Calgary, and the Margaret Herrick Library in the Beverly Hills Motion Picture Museum. I am indebted to American Studies Department at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa for its support including the professors from whom I had the privilege of taking classes and shaping early iterations of my dissertation and the staff who shepherded me through the process and paperwork.

  • THE BOX OFFICE CHECK-UP of 1935
    1 to tell the world!* IN 1936 THE BOX OFFICE CHECK-UP of 1935 An annual produced by the combined editorial and statistical facilities of Motion Picture Herald and Motion Picture Daily devoted to the records and ratings of talent in motion pictures of the year. QUIGLEY PUBLISHING COMPANY THE PUBLIC'S MANDATE by MARTIN QUIGLEY 1 The Box Office Check-Up is intended to disclose guidance upon that single question which in the daily operations of the industry over- shadows all others; namely, the relative box office values of types and kinds of pictures and the personnel of production responsible for them. It is the form-sheet of the industry, depending upon past performances for future guidance. Judging what producers, types of pictures and personalities will do in the future must largely depend upon the record. The Box Office Check-Up is the record. Examination of the record this year and every year must inevitably dis- close much information of both arresting interest and also of genuine im- portance to the progress of the motion picture. It proves some conten- tions and disproves others. It is a source of enlightenment, the clarifying rays of which must be depended upon to light the road ahead. ^ Striking is the essential character of those pictures which month in and month out stand at the head of the list of Box Office Cham- pions. Since August, 1934, the following are among the subjects in this classification: "Treasure Island," "The Barretts of Wimpole Street," "Flirta- tion Walk," "David Copperfield," "Roberta," "Love Me Forever," "Curley
