Edition 1 | 2019-2020 A Welcome from the AACT President You are about to experience some of the most unforgettable days of your life. You are here because you love theatre, and you will be immersed in it. Twelve award-winning theatre companies from the U.S. and from the U.S. Military Services Overseas have come together to share their best work with you. The casts, crews, and their avid followers would love to talk to you, to share their stories and hear yours. Not only will you see some great theatre, but you’ll also have the opportunity to socialize and network with theatre folks from all over the country and overseas. Where do I begin to list all that should be on your bucket list for the festival? Monologue competition; design competition; Keynote speaker, playwright James Sherman, the author of Beau Jest, Jest a Second, Romance in D, and The God of Isaac; adjudications following the shows; and exhibits where you’ll have the opportunity to network and find answers to your theatre-related questions. Take a deep breath because you’ll want to do as much as you can. Study the schedule and map out a plan. And have fun! That’s why we’re all here! YouthFest 2019 offers performances by six companies that have been invited to participate, with funding support from the Jack K. Ayre and Frank Ayre Lee Theatre Foundation. These young people revitalize all of us with their unflagging energy and the pure joy they express to be part of AACT and this historic festival. Speaking of history, could we have chosen a more historic site for our festival than Gettysburg? Join a Gettysburg bus tour, it’s a great opportunity to visit historic battlefields from the Civil War. And there is so much more you can do on your own. Try to fit in sightseeing and good eating, but don’t miss the great workshops and opportunities such as AACTChats. And don’t forget the Silent Auction sponsored by the AACT Endowment. Open your wallet and help make future national festivals rock. There’ll be receptions and social events sponsored by our many Corporate Partners, starting with the Welcome Party. Keep your eyes peeled for who is sponsoring all the events. Our Corporate Partners are throwing out the red carpet for you. Be sure to thank them when you get a chance. And the week culminates on Saturday night with the Awards Ceremony. It’s the perfect time to celebrate and acknowledge the great moments we will have experienced together.

  • The Evolution of the Image of the First Lady
    The Evolution of the Image of the First Lady Reagan N. Griggs Dr. Rauhaus University of North Georgia The role of the First Lady of the United States of America has often been seen as symbolic, figurative, and trivial. Often in comparison to her husband, she is seen as a minimal part of the world stage and ultimately of the history books. Through this research, I seek to debunk the theory that the First Lady is just an allegorical figure of our country, specifically through the analysis of the twenty- first century first ladies. I wish to pursue the evolution of the image of the First Lady and her relevance to political change and public policies. Because a woman has yet to be president of the United States, the First Lady is arguably the only female political figure to live in the White House thus far. The evolution of the First Lady is relevant to gender studies due to its pertinence to answering the age old question of women’s place in politics. Every first lady has in one way or another, exerted some type of influence on the position and on the man to whom she was married to. The occupants of the White House share a unique partnership, with some of the first ladies choosing to influence the president quietly or concentrating on the hostess role. While other first ladies are seen as independent spokeswomen for their own causes of choice, as openly influencing the president, as well as making their views publicly known (Carlin, 2004, p. 281-282).

It builds on previous scholarship of black photography by analyzing photographers’ business and personal records in concert with their images in order to more critically consider the circumstances under which African Americans produced and consumed photographs every day.

  • Guide to Women's History Collections
    GUIDE TO WOMEN'S HISTORY RESOURCES AT THE AMERICAN HERITAGE CENTER "'You know out in Wyoming we have had woman suffrage for fifty years and there is no such thing as an anti-suffrage man in our state -- much less a woman.'" Grace Raymond Hebard, quoted in the New York Tribune, May 2, 1920. Compiled By Jennifer King, Mark L. Shelstad, Carol Bowers, and D. C. Thompson 2006 Edited By Robyn Goforth (2009), Tyler Eastman (2012) PREFACE The American Heritage Center holdings include a wealth of material on women's issues as well as numerous collections from women who gained prominence in national and regional affairs. The AHC, part of the University of Wyoming (the only university in the "Equality State") continues a long tradition of collecting significant materials in these areas. The first great collector of materials at the University, Dr. Grace Raymond Hebard, was herself an important figure in the national suffrage movement, as materials in her collection indicate. Hebard's successors continued such accessions, even at times when many other repositories were focusing their attentions on "the great men." For instance, they collected diaries of Oregon Trail travelers and accounts of life when Wyoming was even more of a frontier than it is today. Another woman, Lola Homsher, was the first formally designated University archivist and her efforts to gain materials from and about women accelerated during the service of Dean Krakel, Dr. Gene Gressley, and present director Dr. Michael Devine. As a result of this work, the AHC collections now contain the papers of pioneering women in the fields of journalism, film, environmental activism, literature, and politics, among other endeavors.

Wright, NV5 Global, Inc. funded by a grant from the Organizing Partners The White House Transition Project The White House Transition Project (WHTP) was established in 1997 to provide information to incoming White House staff members so that they can hit the ground running. The project aims to streamline the transition process and enhance the staff’s understanding of key White House operations. The WHTP reports are written by presidential scholars from across the country who draft essays about past transitions and the inner workings of key White House offices. The reports have been produced for presidential transitions in 2001, 2009 and now 2017. The WHTP maintains an important international dimension by consulting with foreign governments and organizations interested in improving governmental transitions. http://whitehousetransitionproject.org/ Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy The mission of Rice University’s Baker Institute is to help bridge the gap between the theory and practice of public policy by drawing together experts from academia, government, media, business and nongovernmental organizations. By involving policymakers, scholars and students, the institute seeks to improve the debate on selected public policy issues in a nonpartisan manner and to make a difference in the formulation, implementation and evaluation of public policy, both domestic and international.
