In my early years in photography, I approached people I barely knew and asked per- mission to take portraits of them in their homes or workplaces. There they would tell me their stories or sing me their songs. On a busy sidewalk, people stopped to chat as I waited by my view camera to capture “the sunlight and how it fell.” Photography may have been an art form, but it was also a way to loiter and meet people. It also seemed to take ages to make a picture, and it cost a fortune. Scholarship is not a good way to loiter, but, like photography, it is a good a way to meet people. It is also, like photography, lengthy and costly. Aaron Siskind gave me my first invaluable lessons in this art form at the Institute of Design in Chicago. Later, participation in studio critiques at the School of the Art Institute enriched my education in photographic practices. I am grateful to the staff, students, and faculty there, where nearly two decades ago I first developed the ideas that led to this book. During these years, students in my seminars read and reread with me texts by James Agee, Roland Barthes, and many other authors, and helped me refine my ideas. Thanks also to the curators at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture at the New York Public Library; the Studio Museum of Harlem; the Hatch-Billops Collection and its curators, James Hatch and Camille Billops; ix and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. Susan Meiselas graciously opened her studio and archives to me; Carlota Duarte, of the Archivo Pho- tográphico Indigena, San Cristobál de las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico, answered my questions, as did Lynn Warschafsky and other members of the Institute for Photographic Empowerment at the University of Southern California’s An- nenberg School for Communication & Journalism. At the Francis W. Parker School in Chicago, Christine Beh and the late Ann Hills facilitated my visit. I am grateful to Charles Traub and Michael Shulan, organizers of Here Is New York; to Mark Lubell, who answered many of my questions about the exhibit; and to Mickey Kerr and Timothy Soter, photographers who allowed me to use their submissions to Here Is New York and discussed them with me; Arne Mutert, of the Bundesamt für politische Erziehung; James N. Saunders and Terry Miles, of Bellevue Hospital Center, New York; and Sarah Henry, of the Museum of the City of New York. At the now-defunct St. Vincent’s Catholic Medical Center in Manhattan, I owe a debt of gratitude, for their time, their memories, and their expertise, to Sister Miriam Kevin Phillips, Chief Mission Officer; Michael Fagan, Director of Media and Government Relations; James Leach, archivist; and Lisa Feldman, medical photographer. At the Northeast Document Conservation Center, Andover, Massachusetts, my thanks to Ann Russell, former director; Walter Newman, head conservator; and Carolyn Frisa, former conservator. Audiences for conferences at Trent University, Ontario; Boston Univer- sity; the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee; Columbia; Yale; Rice Univer- sity; the Getty Research Institute; Hunter College of The City University of New York; the Speed Art Museum, Louisville; the Stedelijk Museum Bureau, Amsterdam; the University of New York at Stony Brook; the University of Cork, Ireland; the University of Toronto; and the University of Copenha- gen all challenged me with perceptive questions at my presentations. So did readers for the journals where some of these essays first appeared (Katherine Bergeron read my essay on Roland Barthes for Representations; others remained anonymous). The many artists and scholars, students, teachers, and others who joined me in thinking and rethinking the issues in this book include Mi- chele Bogart, Jonathan Bordo, Ann Boyd, Alan Cohen, Bridget Cooks, Paula Duffy, Dan Eisenberg, James Elkins, Jane Gallop, Lydia Goehr, Camara Hollo- way, Maud Lavin, Elliot G. Mishler, Mary Patton, Kym Pinder, Ellen Rothen- berg, Mette Sandbye, Deb Olin Unferth, Susan Ward, and Heidi C. R. N. Winterburn. Alex Marx shepherded me around post-9/11 lower Manhattan and shared his experiences with me. Christopher Pinney’s patient readings of draft after draft for the University of Chicago Press substantially affected x acknowledgments the manuscript. Dario Gamboni lent his support to the project after reading an early draft of part of it. I am grateful also to several anonymous readers of the manuscript for their useful suggestions, all of which had an impact on this book. A series of research and technical assistants soldiered their way through the manuscript. I owe thanks to Amir Berbic, who helped me with my initial attempts to create a photographic text; to Brad Farwell, Lindsay Page, and Daniel Everett, who scanned negatives for me; and to Jen Morris, who taught me how to do it myself. All of them provided me with much useful techni- cal information and taught me new skills. Joey Orr helped with research and compiled my first working bibliography. My research assistants, the tenacious Abby Glogower and Heather Vermeulen, helped me in the grueling task of gathering illustrations. “Tenacious” also applies to Susan Bielstein, my editor at the University of Chicago Press. Like photography, writing books can take a long time. Su- san acquired the manuscript several years ago and continued to support and guide it—and me—through multiple rounds of readings and revisions. An- thony W. Burton patiently answered question after question about numerous issues, technical and otherwise. I am grateful for Sandra Hazel’s careful copy- editing, Laura J. Avey’s help with marketing and other matters, and Ryan Li’s artful design of the book. Finally, I have found writing and publishing a book even more costly than making photographs. Luckily, organizations stepped in to help. The Na- tional Endowment for the Humanities once awarded me a grant for a planned anthology on theories of perception. Plans changed and the intended anthol- ogy never appeared, but the research I did strengthened the present book in- stead. The School of the Art Institute supported my research with multiple Faculty Enrichment Grants, and I benefited from the support of the office of Carol Becker, former Senior Vice-President for Academic Affairs, as well. The Department of the History of Art at Yale University contributed a substantial and generous sum toward the cost of printing the color illustrations. This book was written in two institutional homes. At the School of the Art Institute, besides the people already mentioned, I owe much of my com- fort to Shay DeGrandis, Senior Administrative Director of the Department of Modern Art History, Theory and Criticism; and Teena McClelland, Adminis- trative Director of the Department of Visual and Critical Studies. For offer- ing me a comfortable and welcoming new institutional home, I am grateful to Harold W. Attridge, Dean of the Yale Divinity School, and for housing me in style, Maria Rosa Menocal, Director of the Whitney Humanities Center at xi acknowledgments Yale University. For many services, I want to thank Renee Reed, Senior Admin- istrative Assistant of the Program in Judaic Studies, and also Christina Andrio- tis, administrative assistant of the Whitney Humanities Center at Yale, who in addition had a hand in one of the photographs in the book. I have occasion to thank some of these people and many others in the context of individual chapters. To those whose omission I will only realize af- ter publication, I apologize in advance. I also owe thanks and apologies to my patient husband and my wonderful children, Ben and Sheba, many of whose formative years I spent engaged in working on this book. xii acknowledgments Tactile Looking introduction metaphors of photography In examining photographic pictures of a certain and touch degree of perfection, the use of a large lens is recommended, such as elderly persons frequently employ in reading.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-62472-5 - A History of African American Theatre Errol G. Hill and James V. Hatch Frontmatter More information AHistory of African American Theatre This is the first definitive history of African American theatre. The text embraces awidegeographyinvestigating companies from coast to coast as well as the anglo- phoneCaribbean and African American companies touring Europe, Australia, and Africa. This history represents a catholicity of styles – from African ritual born out of slavery to European forms, from amateur to professional. It covers nearly two and ahalf centuries of black performance and production with issues of gender, class, and race ever in attendance. The volume encompasses aspects of performance such as minstrel, vaudeville, cabaret acts, musicals, and opera. Shows by white playwrights that used black casts, particularly in music and dance, are included, as are produc- tions of western classics and a host of Shakespeare plays. The breadth and vitality of black theatre history, from the individual performance to large-scale company productions, from political nationalism to integration, are conveyed in this volume. errol g. hill was Professor Emeritus at Dartmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire before his death in September 2003.Hetaughtat the University of the West Indies and Ibadan University, Nigeria, before taking up a post at Dartmouth in 1968.His publications include The Trinidad Carnival (1972), The Theatre of Black Americans (1980), Shakespeare in Sable (1984), The Jamaican Stage, 1655–1900 (1992), and The Cambridge Guide to African and Caribbean Theatre (with Martin Banham and George Woodyard, 1994); and he was contributing editor of several collections of Caribbean plays.

  • Robert Bourdeau
    WENDY EWALD (b. Detroit, USA, 1951) For over forty years Wendy Ewald has collaborated in art projects with children, families, women, and teachers in Labrador, Colombia, India, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Holland, Mexico, and the United States. Starting as documentary investigations of places and communities, Ewald’s projects probe questions of identity and cultural differences. In her work with children she encourages them to use cameras to record themselves, their families, and their communities, and to articulate their fantasies and dreams. Ewald herself often makes photographs within the communities she works with and has the children mark or write on her negatives, thereby challenging the concept of who actually makes an image, who is the photographer, who the subject, who is the observer and who the observed. In blurring the distinction of individual authorship and throwing into doubt the artist’s intentions, power, and identity, Ewald creates opportunities to look at the meaning and use of photographic images in our lives with fresh perceptions. Wendy Ewald has received many honors, including a MacArthur Fellowship, a Guggenheim fellowship, and grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, The Andy Warhol Foundation, the Rauschenberg Foundation, and the Fulbright Commission. She was also a senior fellow at the Vera List Center for Art and Politics at the New School from 2000-2002. She has had solo exhibitions at the International Center of Photography in New York, the Center for Creative Photography in Tucson, the George Eastman House in Rochester, Nederlands Foto Institute in Rotterdam, the Fotomuseum in Wintherthur, Switzerland, the Corcoran Gallery of American Art, and The Queens Museum among others.

    The Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery at Skidmore College For Immediate Release Photography Exhibition ‘This Place’ will be presented by Tang Teaching Museum in collaboration with museums at Colgate, Hamilton and UAlbany The Tang to feature work by Wendy Ewald, Gilles Peress, Stephen Shore, Nick Waplington that explores Israel and the West Bank SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. (December 12, 2017) — The Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery at Skidmore College is leading a four-campus exhibition of This Place, which features more than 600 images by twelve internationally acclaimed photographers who explore the personal and public spaces in Israel and the West Bank. Opening February 3 through April 22, 2018, the Tang’s presentation will feature work by four of the twelve photographers, who each took different approaches, highlighting how photography can illuminate multiple perspectives on a complex topic: Wendy Ewald, taught and photographed children and adults in fourteen communities in Israel and the West Bank in their homes and villages, collecting tens of thousands of digital images, a selection of which is on display at the Tang Museum; Gilles Peress photographed the Road of Patriarchs from Hebron to Jerusalem and the Palestinian village of Silwan in East Jerusalem, areas he considers to be fault lines in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict; Stephen Shore used a his 8 x 10 view camera and a digital camera to photograph landscapes and cityscapes, sacred places, street scenes, and community; and Nick Waplington created a photographic survey of Jewish settlements in the West Bank through both family portraits and images of the natural and built environment.

  • Margaret Bonds (1913-1972), Composer Three Dream Portraits
    21M.410 / 21M.515 Vocal Repertoire and Performance Spring 2005 PROGRAM NOTES Edward Boatner (1898-1981), arranger Didn’t My Lord Deliver Daniel? When I Get Home Edward Hammon Boatner was born on November 13, 1898 in New Orleans, Louisiana to the family of an itinerant minister. Boatner’s father, Dr. Daniel Webster Boatner traveled frequently from church to church, and thus provided his son an introduction to rural church singing. Edward Boatner received his musical education at Western University in Kansas, the Boston Conservatory, New England Conservatory, the Longy School of Music, and the Chicago College of Music. In his lifetime, Boatner arranged and published more than 200 spirituals, with written works including Story of the Spiritual: Thirty Spirituals and Their Origins, and the spiritual musicals, The Man of Nazareth and The Origin of the Spirituals. His arrangements have been recorded by Roland Hayes, Marian Anderson, Paul Robeson, Leontyne Price and Nelson Eddy. Boatner achieved acclaim as a singer and also served as music director of the National Baptist Convention (1925-1933), as music director at Samuel Huston College in Austin and as Dean of Music at Wiley College. He also operated a studio in New York City where he trained choral groups, gave private voice and piano instruction, and trained actors. An avid writer, Boatner published books on music theory and composition. Writings include The Damaging Results of Racism, Black Humor, Great Achievements in Black and White and the novel One Drop of Blood (New York Public Library, Digital Library Collections). Edward Boatner died in New York in 1981, leaving a legacy of developing the concert spiritual genre in which elements of folk song and art song are blended.
