  • Thanks Bill Smart Interview
    ALPINE HISTORICAL SOCIETY NORWALK [CONNECTICUT] THANKS BILL SMART INTERVIEW (Nephew of Justin Gruelle) December 21, 2011 Tad Diesel: Hello, I am Tad Diesel and, on behalf of the Norwalk [Connecticut] Arts Commission, it is my honor to welcome Bill Smart to the city of Norwalk. Bill has given the city a true treasure and that is his collection of art that was created by his uncle, Justin Gruelle. And, Bill, first of all, on behalf of all the citizens of Norwalk, thank you very much. Bill Smart: Well, thank you, Tad, for letting me come up and sharing this great day. It’s wonderful to be here. Thank you. Tad: You may know that Justin Gruelle was among the artists of the WPA era of the 1930s who created in Norwalk city hall six of the treasured murals that are on display, but Bill has donated a collection of his personal collection of his uncle’s art that now will accompany those murals. Bill, perhaps we could start by you just giving a sense of growing up with your uncle and your early life in Norwalk. Bill: Well, Norwalk has always been the big city for me, coming from a farm in Indiana. I first came here in 1936 when these murals were put on the wall here. My uncle painted them and I celebrated my tenth birthday in Norwalk, so that was a lot of fun—75 years ago. So it is special to be here and see all these other paintings that I have collected through the years at home with his other things.

  • A Regional Study of Secular and Sectarian Orphanages and Their Response to Progressive Era Child-Saving Reforms, 1880-1930
    Closer Connections: A Regional Study of Secular and Sectarian Orphanages and Their Response to Progressive Era Child-Saving Reforms, 1880-1930 A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In the Department of History of the College of Arts and Sciences by Debra K. Burgess B.A. University of Cincinnati June 2012 M.A. University of Cincinnati April 2014 Committee Chair: Mark A. Raider, Ph.D. 24:11 Abstract Closer Connections: A Regional Study of Secular and Sectarian Orphanages and Their Response to Progressive Era Child-Saving Reforms, 1880-1930 by Debra K. Burgess Child welfare programs in the United States have their foundation in the religious traditions brought to the country up through the late nineteenth century by immigrants from many European nations. These programs were sometimes managed within the auspices of organized religious institutions but were also found among the ad hoc efforts of religiously- motivated individuals. This study analyzes how the religious traditions of Catholicism, Judaism, and Protestantism established and maintained institutions of all sizes along the lines of faith- based dogma and their relationship to American cultural influences in the Midwest cities of Cincinnati, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh during the period of 1880-1930. These influences included: the close ties between (or constructive indifference exhibited by) the secular and sectarian stakeholders involved in child-welfare efforts, the daily needs of children of immigrants orphaned by parental disease, death, or desertion, and the rising influence of social welfare professionals and proponents of the foster care system.

The lessons contained in this packet are intended for grades 3 through 8. The activities are designed to be innovative and to meet Indiana Academic Standards. The text and worksheets are reproducible. SETTING THE STAGE: To begin the lesson plan, you might want to introduce your class to age-appropriate poetry from different authors and time periods: Robert Frost, Robert Louis Stevenson, Shel Silverstein, Jack Prelutsky, Emily Dickinson, William Shakespeare, Edna St. Vincent Milay, etc. Students should be encouraged to read poetry aloud. James Whitcomb Riley can fit nicely into units and lessons dealing with poetry, writing and literature, Indiana history, the Victorian and Progressive Eras, and popular culture (don’t forget — Riley was one of the most popular writers in the world in a day when much of the educated public read poetry regularly). 2 BACKGROUND TEXT FOR EDUCATORS From the vantage point of the early 21 st century, it is difficult to think of Indiana as a hotbed of popular literature. Over the past hundred years, however, many Hoosier authors have achieved great public acclaim: Theodore Driesser, Kurt Vonnegut and Booth Tarkington, among many others, all met with great popular and critical success. Easily the most commercially popular in his day was the man who became known worldwide as “The Hoosier Poet,” James Whitcomb Riley.

    Book RcLi7 euls 231 Indianapolis published Johnny Gruelle’s Orphant Annie Story Book, which was a series of stories and illustrations based on Riley’s poem “Little Orphant Annie.” Johnny Gruelle died tJanuary 9, 1938. Although the title of the book identifies Gruelle as the creator of Raggedy Ann and Andy, Patricia Hall rightly devotes half of her book to other significant contributions Gruelle made as an illustra- tor, cartoonist, writer, and businessman. Hall provides an impres- sive list of published books written andlor illustrated by Johnny Gruelle, a checklist of magazine and newspaper appearances of his work, and a detailed bibliography of principal sources. The numer- ous reproductions of photographs, cartoons, and drawings greatly enhance the biographical study of this very talented Hoosier artist. SI:SANNES.

Storytellers from forgotten balladeers to today’s crop of movie makers have catered to a univer- sal fascination with the individual who stands apart from society, flouting its rules, defying its conventions, reaping its fruits without bearing its burdens, living life on his own terms, writing his own code.
