Sharing both the difficulties and the joys of the creative lives they have pursued for four decades, they also will touch on the differing challenges they have faced: Raising a family and having a career in Clayburgh's case and of being a single woman in Robinson's case. Clayburgh has been nominated for two Academy Awards, for An Unmarried Woman and Starting Over, and for four Golden Globes and an Emmy Award. She has starred in over 25 feature films, including Running with Scissors, First Monday in October, I'm Dancing As Fast As I Can, Silver Streak, Semi Tough and Never Again. Television audiences know her from numerous roles in series and movies including Nip/Tuck (Emmy nomination), The Practice and Ally McBeal. On Broadway, she appeared in the recent revival of Neil Simon's Barefoot in the Park, Richard Greenberg's A Naked Girl on the Appian Way, a revival of Noel Coward's Design for Living, the original production of Tom Stoppard's Jumpers and the Tony Award- winning musicals Pippin and The Rothschilds. Off-Broadway she was recently seen as "Virginia" in The Clean House, appeared in The Busy World is Hushed, and originated the role of "Sunny" in The Exonerated. Robinson began her career as an actress. Her best known role was Theresa in Martin Scorsese's Mean Streets. She made a career change in the late 1970s, becoming a film producer, and has produced or executive produced more than 17 films, including Running on Empty, After Hours, For Love of The Game, From Hell and When Zachary Beaver Came To Town. Her films have won acclaim, including The Independent Spirit Award for Best Picture (After Hours), Best Director at the Cannes Film Festival (Martin Scorsese), nominations for two Academy Awards (Running on Empty), and the Truly Moving Picture Award at the Heartland Film Festival (When Zachary Beaver Came To Town).

Warner in honor of his grandfather, James Turner Butler, a Stetson alumnus (BA 1902, JD 1904). His gift also honors the Stetson legacy of other family members, including James S. Turner, a member of Stetson's original Board of Trustees (1885-1904), and Etter McTeer Turner (BA 1935), long- time dean of women and dean of students. Others also have generously supported the funding of this creative lectureship. The goal of the program is to support a campus visit or residency by a creative writer or artist who will interact with students and faculty and give a public reading or lecture. A faculty committee oversees selection of each year's lecturer. The current committee includes Gary Bolding (Art), Michael Denner (Russian Studies and Honors Program), Ken McCoy (Communication Studies and Theatre Arts), Emily Mieras (American Studies), Terri Witek (English) and Grady Ballenger (Dean of the College of Arts & Sciences). David T. Warner is the founder of Bellamy Road, a center for fine arts, literature and film near Melrose. A contributor to regional and national magazines, he is also a writer and producer of travel films and the author of "Vanishing Florida: A Personal Guide to Sights Rarely Seen," "High-Sheriff Jim Turner" and "Bimini: Tales of an Island Getaway." Founded in 1883, Stetson University is a private, liberal arts university that consistently earns high rankings in national college guides. The Stetson University family is committed to intellectual leadership, through teaching and example; to active learning; and to fostering a close-knit community built on a foundation of values. The university's College of Arts & Sciences, School of Business Administration and School of Music are housed on the historic main campus in DeLand. The university system also includes the Stetson University Center at Celebration, and two Stetson University College of Law campuses in Tampa Bay. For more information, visit www.stetson.edu..

    August, 2005 Re: The Evolution of The Pilates Method: The Fletcher Work™ To Whom It May Concern, The Fletcher Work is the authentic evolution of the Pilates’ method. To be accurate and legitimate, any journalistic inquiry into contemporary Pilates must necessarily include this dynamic contribution. On behalf of The Ron Fletcher Company, I encourage you to take time to review the enclosed materials. Pilates is more than a contemporary fitness phenomenon. It is an extraordinarily effective conditioning method — nearly a century in development — whose time has finally come. Joseph Pilates’ original principles were absolutely sound, yet his wife, Clara, referred to her husband’s original work as “just the tip of the iceberg.” The development and evolution of the Pilates method over the last 35 years has been, in large part, the result of the work and vision of Ron Fletcher, their protégé and student for nearly three decades. Since Joseph PIlates’ death in 1968, no other individual has played a more pivotal role in the evolution and popularity of the Pilates method. Now in his eighties, Mr. Fletcher is one of only three such masters still teaching the Work. Should you have any questions regarding the enclosed information, or should you wish to pursue a related project, please do not hesitate to contact me. In addition to being one of the great luminaries of the Pilates world, Ron Fletcher is also very much alive, well and active… and he’s a great interview. Sincerely, Kyria Sabin encl The Ron Fletcher Company™ . POB 64971 . Tucson, AZ 85728-4971 . 520.323.7070 .

  • Richard Pells, "Film: Movies and Modern America"
    Film: Movies and Modern America By Richard Pells What is a "typical" American movie? People throughout the world are sure they know. A characteristic American film, they insist, has flamboyant special effects and a sumptuous décor, each a reflection of America's nearly mythic affluence. Furthermore, American movies revel in fast- paced action and a celebration of individual ingenuity embodied in the heroics of an impeccably dressed, permanently youthful Hollywood star. And they feature love stories that lead, inevitably if often implausibly, to happy endings. Yet over the past 15 years, for every high- tech, stunt-filled Mission Impossible, there Director Martin Scorsese and actor Daniel Day-Lewis have worked together are serious and even disturbing films such on such high-quality film projects as American Beautyand The Hours. For as Gangs of New York and The Age of Innocence. every conventional Hollywood blockbuster (© Associated Press) apparently designed to appeal to the predilections of 12-year-old boys, there have been complex and sophisticated movies such as Traffic, Shakespeare in Love, Magnolia, and About Schmidt that are consciously made for grown-ups. What is therefore remarkable about contemporary American movies is their diversity, their effort to explore the social and psychological dimensions of life in modern America, and their ability to combine entertainment with artistry. Profile: Filmmaker Alexander Payne The sweeping vistas of the Nebraska countryside outside the city of Omaha in the movie About Schmidt, and the hushed, stoic visages within the city itself, represent a homecoming of sorts for filmmaker Alexander Payne. The son of Greek parents who owned a prominent restaurant in Omaha, Payne left Nebraska after high school to study Spanish and history at Stanford University, with an eye toward becoming a foreign correspondent.
