Sundberg, M.A., May 2003 Journalism Montana’s Scoop Director: Carol Van Valkenburg S A f Aline Mosby was a Montana girl bom and raised in Missoula. She earned a degree in journalism from the University of Montana and even until her death at age 76 spent nearly every summer at her cabin on Flathead Lake in western Montana. But Mosby’s career never touched Montana. After receiving a bachelor’s degree, she worked in New York City, Seattle and Hollywood. Into her 30s and 40s, she landed reporting positions in Russia, China and France. Women from her era were not expected to have careers, yet Mosby silently broke the mold. She was not a proclaimed feminist, but her continued success and reputation paved the way for women to succeed in the male-dominated media industry. Mosby lived and breathed journalism. She worked long hours and wrote fast, accurate and graceful stories full of detail. Throughout her career, Mosby covered several historic events and made countless high-profile contacts, but she did not flaunt her experiences. She was modest about her accomplishments except when she spoke of her roots. She loved her home state and her alma mater. And the University of Montana never overlooked her success. It invited her to teach courses in international reporting and awarded her an honorary doctorate degree. Mosby is listed as one of the University of Montana’s prominent alumni and her prominence is undoubtedly well earned. The purpose of this thesis is to trace the life events of Aline Mosby and detail her contribution to the journalism profession. Research for this project centered on the University of Montana School of Journalism Mosby student file, a box of Mosby’s reporting memoirs, Mosby’s book, “The View from No. 13 People’s Street,” memorial tributes and interviews with Mosby’s colleagues, friends and sister. Appendices include samples of Mosby’s work and memorial tributes. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS To my husband, Ryan Jeffers Siess, for his continual encouragement, humor, and patience while I spent countless afternoons at the Napa Valley Coffee Roasting Co. writing this thesis and drinking overpriced skinny caramel lattes. Thank you to my committee chair, Professor Carol Van Valkenburg, School of Journalism, for introducing me to the life of Aline Mosby and for guiding me through this project. Thanks also to Professor Clem Work, School of Journalism, and Professor James Lopach, Department of Political Science, for serving on my committee. And a bit of credit to my brother, Will, for rescheduling a patient and riding his bike as fast as he could to attend my defense.

  • Robertson Davies Fifth Business Fifth Business Definition: Those Roles Which, Being Neither Those of Hero Nor Heroine, Confidant
    Robertson Davies Fifth Business Fifth Business Definition: Those roles which, being neither those of Hero nor Heroine, Confidante nor Villain, but which were nonetheless essential to bring about the Recognition or the denouement, were called the Fifth Business in drama and opera companies organized according to the old style; the player who acted these parts was often referred to as Fifth Business. —Tho. Overskou, Den Daaske Skueplads I. Mrs. Dempster 1 My lifelong involvement with Mrs. Dempster began at 8 o’clock p.m. on the 27th of December, 1908, at which time I was ten years and seven months old. I am able to date the occasion with complete certainty because that afternoon I had been sledding with my lifelong friend and enemy Percy Boyd Staunton, and we had quarrelled, because his fine new Christmas sled would not go as fast as my old one. Snow was never heavy in our part of the world, but this Christmas it had been plentiful enough almost to cover the tallest spears of dried grass in the fields; in such snow his sled with its tall runners and foolish steering apparatus was clumsy and apt to stick, whereas my low-slung old affair would almost have slid on grass without snow. The afternoon had been humiliating for him, and when Percy as humiliated he was vindictive. His parents were rich, his clothes were fine, and his mittens were of skin and came from a store in the city, whereas mine were knitted by my mother; it was manifestly wrong, therefore, that his splendid sled should not go faster than mine, and when such injustice showed itself Percy became cranky.

Edy A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication. Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Jean Folkerts W. Fitzhugh Brundage Jacquelyn Dowd Hall Frank E. Fee, Jr. Barbara Friedman ©2012 Carolyn Martindale Edy ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract CAROLYN M. EDY: Conditions of Acceptance: The United States Military, the Press, and the “Woman War Correspondent,” 1846-1945 (Under the direction of Jean Folkerts) This dissertation chronicles the history of American women who worked as war correspondents through the end of World War II, demonstrating the ways the military, the press, and women themselves constructed categories for war reporting that promoted and prevented women’s access to war: the “war correspondent,” who covered war-related news, and the “woman war correspondent,” who covered the woman’s angle of war. As the first study to examine these concepts, from their emergence in the press through their use in military directives, this dissertation relies upon a variety of sources to consider the roles and influences, not only of the women who worked as war correspondents but of the individuals and institutions surrounding their work. Nineteenth and early 20th century newspapers continually featured the woman war correspondent—often as the first or only of her kind, even as they wrote about more than sixty such women by 1914.

Introduction and Afterword by Lewis L. Gould. Published for the National Archives Trust Fund Board. PUB TYPE Collected Works General (020) -- Historical Materials (060) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC08 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Archives; *Authors; *Females; Modern History; Presidents of the United States; Primary Sources; Resource Materials; Social History; *United States History IDENTIFIERS *First Ladies (United States); *Personal Writing; Public Records; Social Power; Twentieth Century; Womens History ABSTRACT This collection of essays about the Presidential wives of the 20th century through Nancy Reagan. An exploration of the records of first ladies will elicit diverse insights about the historical impact of these women in their times. Interpretive theories that explain modern first ladies are still tentative and exploratory. The contention in the essays, however, is that whatever direction historical writing on presidential wives may follow, there is little question that the future role of first ladies is more likely to expand than to recede to the days of relatively silent and passive helpmates. Following a foreword and an introduction, essays in the collection and their authors are, as follows: "Meeting a New Century: The Papers of Four Twentieth-Century First Ladies" (Mary M. Wolf skill); "Not One to Stay at Home: The Papers of Lou Henry Hoover" (Dale C.
