  • The Personal Collection of Thurman Munson
    The Personal Collection of Thurman Munson ne of the most rewarding aspects of this profession has been the opportunity to meet many individuals within the baseball community throughout the years. I can easily state that my initial visit to Canton, Ohio to meet with Diana O Munson was one of my more memorable, yet simple excursions. Viewing Thurman Munson’s collection within his very office is a privilege that I will recall many times in the future. The awards, significant baseballs, bats, photos, and various paper materials all provided some sort of tangible validation for the player that we all remember. By any standard, and for any era within the game, Thurman Munson’s accomplishments on the field are significant. Born on June 6th, 1947 in Akron, Ohio, Munson was a multi-sport star in high school. He attended Kent State University on a baseball scholarship and was an All-American catcher. Thurman’s pro career began with brief stints with the Binghamton Triplets in the Eastern League, and the Syracuse Chiefs, prior to being called up by the Yankees during the '69 season. Munson played so well during the remainder of the '69 season that he won the job of Yankees starting catcher in spring training of 1970. After batting .302 with 7 home runs, 57 RBIs, and 80 assists, he was named the American League Rookie of the Year. From the start, Munson’s leadership by example was apparent. His demeanor and hard-nosed style of play earned him instant respect, and ultimately, the position of team captain.

  • Invasion of the Body Snatchers Kathleen Loock
    6 The Return of the Pod People: Remaking Cultural Anxieties in Invasion of the Body Snatchers Kathleen Loock Don Siegel’s Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), based on a novel by Jack Finney, has become one of the most influential alien invasion films of all time. The film’s theme of alien paranoia—the fear that some invis- ible invaders could replace individual human beings and turn them into a collective of emotionless pod people—resonated with widespread anxieties in 1950s American culture. It has been read as an allegory of the communist threat during the Cold War but also as a commen- tary on McCarthyism, the alienating effects of capitalism, conformism, postwar radiation anxiety, the return of “brainwashed” soldiers from the Korean War, and masculine fears of “the potential social, politi- cal, and personal disenfranchisement of postwar America’s hegemonic white patriarchy” (Mann 49). 1 Engaging with the profound concerns of its time, Invasion of the Body Snatchers is widely regarded as a signature film of the 1950s. Yet despite its cultural and historical specificity, the narrative of alien-induced dehumanization has lent itself to reinterpretations and re-imaginations like few others, always shifting with the zeitgeist and replacing former cultural anxieties with more contemporary and urgent ones. Siegel’s film has inspired three cinematic remakes over the last 55 years: Philip Kaufman’s Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978), Abel Ferrara’s Body Snatchers (1993), and, most recently, Oliver Hirschbiegel’s The Invasion (2007). Bits and pieces of the film have also found their way into the American popular imagination, taking the form of intermedial refer- ences to Invasion of the Body Snatchers in movies, television series, car- toons, and video games.
