4 SPRING QUARTER 2003

Collector Shares Vaudeville History with Theatre Research Institute Historian, author, and collector Laura M. Mueller says that collecting is in her genes. A life-long resident of Columbus, having attended St. Joseph Academy and The Ohio State University, Ms. Mueller places herself in the third generation of curious his- torians who have included a post-card collecting grandfather, a Josephinum professor great-uncle, a medieval his- tory professor cousin, a retired Air Force lieutenant colonel cousin who writes spy novels, and a Civil War buff sister. In particular she credits her father, Vincent P. Mueller, with instill- ing in her a love of the performing arts. A singer and performer in musicals himself, he would take his children to see great performers at Columbus’s Memorial Hall. At St. Joseph Academy, Ms. Mueller was introduced to Shakespeare in performance, an expe- rience that made a lifetime impression. She remembers standing in line for sev- enty-five cent tickets at the Hartman Theatre to see touring productions that starred great artists of the day such as Katharine Cornell and the Lunts. Later a friend who worked with Ms. Mueller at Lazarus introduced her to the Stratford Festival of Canada which she began documenting when she first went in 1962, before the Festival’s own archive was established. Wearing her writer hat, Ms. Mueller has written four novels (three histori- cal), published articles in Films in Review and for publications of numer- ous organizations including the British Elsie Janis on the cover of The Theatre, May 1912.
