A., M. A, ****** The Ohio State University I359 Approved Adviser College of Education ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation is not the work of the author alone, of course, but represents the contributions of many persons. While it is impossible perhaps to mention every­ one who has helped, certain officials and other persons are especially prominent in my memory for their encouragement and assistance during the course of my research. I would like to express my appreciation for the aid I have received from the clerks of the school boards at Columbus, Dayton, Toledo, and Warren, and from the Superintendent of Schools at Athens. In a similar manner I am indebted for the courtesies extended to me by the librarians at the Western Reserve Historical Society, the Ohio State Library, the Ohio Supreme Court Library, Wilberforce University, and Drake University. I am especially grateful to certain librarians for the patience and literally hours of service, even beyond the high level customary in that profession. They are Mr. Russell Dozer of the Ohio State University; Mrs. Alice P. Hook of the Historical and Philosophical Society; and Mrs. Elizabeth R. Martin, Miss Prances Goudy, Mrs, Marion Bates, and Mr. George Kirk of the Ohio Historical Society. ii Ill Much of the time for the research Involved In this study was made possible by a very generous fellowship granted for the year 1956 -1 9 5 7, for which I am Indebted to the Graduate School of the Ohio State University.

  • War in My Mind PRD75951 Beth Hart Ist So Authentisch Wie
    BIO MASCOT LABEL GROUP/PROVOGUE Beth Hart – War In My Mind PRD75951 Beth Hart ist so authentisch wie nie. In einer Musikindustrie voller Hochglanzproduktionen und retuschierten Fotoshootings ist sie die Künstlerin, die ihre Karten offen auf den Tisch legt und ihre dunkelsten Geheimnisse preisgibt. Noch nie hat sich das Grammy-nominierte Talent auf einer Platte so roh präsentiert wie auf „War In My Mind“. Auf dem Album geht sie offen mit ihren inneren Dämonen um und offenbart den Zuhörern ihre bisherigen Erfolge und Rückschläge im Leben. „Mehr als bei jedem anderen Album, das ich bisher gemacht habe, bin ich auf diesen Songs ganz ich selbst gewesen.“, erklärt die Sängerin. „Mein innerer Heilungsprozess hat sehr lange gedauert, doch inzwischen fühle ich mich mit meiner dunklen Seite, meiner Verrücktheit und den Dingen, für die ich mich so lange schämte, sehr wohl.“ Beth Hart ist inzwischen 47 Jahre alt und genießt die Sonnenseite des Lebens. Der große Erfolg des 2016 erschienenen Albums „Fire On The Floor“ hallte über Jahre nach: sie erhielt weitere hervorragende Kritiken, verkaufte weitere Einheiten und die Karten ihrer Konzerte in ehrwürdige Locations wie dem Ryman Auditorium oder der Royal Albert Hall (von letzterer erschien vergangenes Jahr die triumphale Live-DVD) waren in kurzer Zeit vergriffen. Die Sängerin erinnert uns jedoch auch daran, dass Ihr Leben stets in Zyklen verlief. „Die Dinge wurden gut, dann schlecht, besser und wieder schlechter.“ Genau in diesen Momenten entstanden stets ihre besten Songs. „Auf ‚War In My Mind‘ widme ich mich vielen dieser Themen. Ich habe auf jedem Album, das ich bisher gemacht habe, die Wahrheit gesucht.

  • Beth Hart Press Release
    Beth Hart “Better Than Home” PRD 7451 BETH HART’S NEW ALBUM, BETTER THAN HOME, IS BETH-ER THAN EVER Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter, Beth Hart, has never sounded better (musically and spiritually) than she does on her new album, Better Than Home. When she sings clocks stop, hearts dance and neck-hair tingles…it’s that compelling! A Planetmosh critic said, “I was just blown away by Beth’s voice!” and American Songwriter proclaimed, “Beth’s tough, throaty voice…she uses that powerful instrument to best effect on dramatic, arena filling ballads.” Beth’s incredible voice is what moved guitar legends Jeff Beck, Slash, Joe Bonamassa and Buddy Guy to perform with her on records and in concert. She reached national attention with the hit single, L.A. Song (Out Of This Town), the single reached #6 in the Billboard Modern AC chart and #7 in the Adult Top 40 chart; subsequent album, Bang Bang Boom Boom, made it to #3 in the Billboard Top Blues Album chart and shortly thereafter, Beth was nominated for a Blues Music Award. Album collaborations with Joe Bonamassa, Seesaw and Don’t Explain, made it to the top (#1 and #3) of the Billboard Blues Albums Chart, to #8 and #22 on the Billboard Top Independent Albums Chart and into the Billboard 200. International audiences fell in love with her and rewarded her with two #1 singles in Denmark from albums Leave The Light On and 37 Days (recorded live). Her greatest validation as one of the defining voices of our time, came when her tribute (alongside Jeff Beck) to Buddy Guy on The Kennedy Center Honors special, received one of the only 2 standing ovations of the evening, led by President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle.

  • Student Writing Sample Ohio’S Original Interscholastic Creative Writing Program for Middle Schools
    student writing sample Ohio’s Original Interscholastic Creative Writing Program for Middle Schools Sticky Fingers by Sabrine Djemil, Grade 8, Brecksville-Broadview Heights Middle School Elephants are one of the most vivid memories of my childhood. I had an alphabet book, and on the page for letter E there was a picture of a purple spotted elephant. Late into the night, my father and I would stay up practicing our elephant noises. I’m sure that by now, he has found someone else to giggle with. My time as his child is over. Another little girl has taken my place. He took me to the zoo once. I was only five, and he was off work for the day – the first time in weeks. He had an appointment at the golf course that afternoon, I remember. Whenever my sticky fingers would press against the shiny metallic clubs, I could see him wince. But that morning, he was all mine and we spent a good twenty minutes visiting the elephants. I stared in awe at the enormous beasts, and my sticky fingers left little smears against the glass barrier when I attempted to clamber into the safari exhibit. I never got very far – his hands always held me back. When sticky fingers pressed against his cheek, my father couldn’t bring himself to care about the residue they left. My fingers have not been sticky in a long time, and the elephant alphabet book has long since been shoved into a forgotten drawer. He called me just last week, my dear father.

  • BIO Concert Promoter 2016-2017
    CONCERT PROMOTER BIO 2016/2017 MASCOT LABEL GROUP/PROVOGUE Beth Hart is on fire. Right now, the Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter is riding a creative tidal wave, firing out acclaimed albums, hooking up with the biggest names in music and rocking the house each night with that celebrated burnt-honey voice. In 2016, the headline news is Beth’s latest album, Fire On The Floor (out 14 October 2016 (Europe / Australia / New Zealand) and 3 February 2017 (US / CanaDa) on Provogue/Mascot Label Group): a release that even this fiercely self-critical artist describes as “pretty frickin’ good”. But let’s not forget the backstory that brought her here… The Blues Magazine once dubbed Beth Hart “the ultimate female rock star”, and there’s no doubt that her two-decade career is the ultimate thrill-ride. Born in Los Angeles, she released a fistful of hit albums through the ’90s, then reignited in the post-millennium as both a solo artist and the head-turning vocalist for guitar heroes like Joe Bonamassa, Jeff Beck, BuDDy Guy and Slash. “Extraordinary,” wrote The Times of her once-a-generation voicebox, while The Guardian praised her “daring, brooding and angry” performances. It’s no wonder she’s been nominated for three Blues Music Awards. But it’s in recent times that Beth has truly blossomed. In April 2015, she released Better Than Home: a critical and commercial smash that toppeD the iTunes Blues Chart and was crowneD #4 Best Blues Album Of The Year by Mojo magazine. The release led her to fill AmsterDam’s Heineken Music Hall with 5,500 fans (her largest club show to Date).
