  • 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.

  • Preface Catch Her If You
    Preface Catch Her If You Can In the first light of dawn, wearing wrinkled khakis and a floppy hat, Katharine Hepburn charged up the hill from her bungalow. Without knocking, she rushed into the mansion of her friend and favored director George Cukor and began invading his kitchen cabinets. Alerted by pans crashing, Cukor’s assistant Charles Williamson hurried in to discover what he took at first to be a bag lady: a small, sixtyish woman, arms loaded with flour, unsweetened chocolate, and sugar. For a moment they regarded each other silently. “I’m baking brownies,” Hepburn finally said, staring him down—Tracy Lord, Tess Harding, Eleanor of Aquitaine, all defying him to scold. But Williamson expressed only surprise that she was there at all. No one, not even Cukor, had known she was in town. “Go ahead,” she said, shaking her finger, a smile crossing her face. “Try to figure me out. You’ll never get it right. No one ever does.” “She liked to keep people guessing,” said Williamson, remembering that day in the early 1970s as Hepburn scampered back down the hill, skirting Cukor’s famous pool and his elaborate terraced gardens. With its imposing ivy-covered walls, the Cukor estate, high in the Hollywood hills, offered the impregnability of a medieval castle. “Out in the world, Hepburn was one thing,” said Williamson, “but at George’s, she was quite another. And she liked people wondering which one was real.” Whether baking brownies at six in the morning or cooking up publicity for a movie, Katharine Hepburn always knew how to walk a fine line between reality and image.
