  • Lillian Moller Gilbreth Biografia
    Resumen sobre Lillian Moller Gilbreth Lillian Evelyn (Möller) Gilbreth (Oakland, 1878-Phoenix, 1972) ingeniera, psicóloga, profesora y madre de familia numerosa es, fundamentalmente, la madre de la moderna gestión empresarial. Ella y su marido Frank Bunker Gilbreth (1868- 1924) fueron los pioneros en algunas técnicas de gestión empresarial que aún se emplean actualmente en la construcción y en otras industrias. Lillian fue además una de esas primeras supermujeres, capaces de combinar una carrera brillante con una vida familiar clásica: fue una prolifica autora, obtuvo diferentes licenciaturas y fue la madre de doce hijos. Quizás encontremos a veces que es mejor recordada por su maternidad, ya que dos de sus hijos, Frank Gilbreth Jr. y Ernestine Gilbreth Carey, escribieron los populares libros Cheaper by the Dozen (1949) en y Belles on Their Toes (1950), que fueron llevados a la gran pantalla en más de una ocasión, y en los que cuentan sus experiencias en el seno de una familia grande y famosa, aunque Lillian Gilberth no solamente fue madre de familia. La joven Lillian Evelyn Möller fue una alumna destacada en el instituto y decidió en principio estudiar música y literatura, aunque su padre no veía por ningún lado la necesidad de que una mujer accediese a una enseñanza superior, siendo de los que pensaban que le bastaban los conocimientos que le sirviesen para llevar una casa eficazmente. Pero Lillian le convenció para que la dejara asistir a clase en la Universidad de California, en Berkeley mientras viviera en casa y atendiera las tareas domésticas, y ya que estudiaba allí un primo suyo.

  • That Most Famous Dozen
    That Most Famous Dozen By DAVID FERGUSON Introduction In the movie, Belles on Their Toes, the last scene depicts Lillian Gilbreth (and Frank looking on from heaven), watching as the last of the Gilbreth Dozen graduates from college, thus ending the film story of this family. While the books, starting with Cheaper by the Dozen, and movies all came out within the same few short years at the middle of the century, the 1925: Lillian with all the children except Anne public certainly has not forgotten the Gilbreth family. Since forming The Gilbreth Network, the most frequently asked questions concern the Gilbreth "children." Where are they now? What did they do for a living? Did any of them have large families? After the web site was created, the requests for information increased to the point where, if I sold this story, I could have retired on the sales. I want to express my thanks to Ernestine Gilbreth Carey, for supplying much of the in- formation contained herein. We discussed this article and had to weigh your interest against the family's desire for privacy. If we could say one thing about the Gilbreth family, it is that they're no different than any of us, in that they like their privacy. After all, we all get too many calls, ask- ing us to switch long-distance phone carriers, without adding to the problem. The Gilbreth Dozen The children of Frank B. Gilbreth and Lillian M. Gilbreth were born between 1905 and 1922. While their father died at the early age of 55 (a month shy of his 56th birthday), his children, for the most part, took after their mother, as far as longevity is concerned.

  • Nasty Women Transgressive Womanhood in American History
    Nasty Women Transgressive Womanhood in American History Edited by Marian Mollin With the Students of HIST 4914 - Spring 2020 The saying goes that well-behaved women rarely make history. For centuries, American women have been carving out spaces of their own in a male-dominated world. From politics, to entertainment, to their personal lives, women have been making their mark on the American landscape since the nation’s inception, often ignored or overlooked by those creating the record. This collection takes the long view of the American woman and examines her transgressive behavior through the decades. Including stories of women enslaved, early celebrities, engineers, and more, these essays demonstrate how there is no such thing as an “average” woman, as even those ordinary women are found doing extraordinary things. This collection comes at a particularly poignant time, as August 2020 marked the 100th anniversary of the ratification and adoption of the 19th amendment, which – in a landmark for women’s right – granted American women the right to vote. Virginia Tech Department of History in association with ISBN 9781949373516 90000 > 9 781949 373516 Nasty Women Nasty Women: Transgressive Womanhood in American History is part of the Virginia Tech Student Publications series. This series contains book-length works authored and edited by Virginia Tech undergraduate and graduate students and published in collaboration with Virginia Tech Publishing. Often these books are the culmination of class projects for advanced or capstone courses. The series provides the opportunity for students to write, edit, and ultimately publish their own books for the world to learn from and enjoy.

  • Myrna Loy ~ 46 Films and More
    Myrna Loy ~ 46 Films and more Myrna Loy was born Myrna Adele Williams on 2 August 1905 in Radersburg, Montana to parents of Welsh, Scottish and Swedish descent. After her rancher father David became, at just 21, the youngest man ever elected to the Montana State Legislature, the family moved 35 miles to Helena, the state capital, which is where Myrna grew up. Frank (later Gary) Cooper, four years her senior, was a near neighbour: We lived high off the hog on Fifth Avenue. It was just a nice middle- class neighbourhood. Most of the richer families were building on the opposite mountainside. Helena is a spacious city, climbing up Mount Ascension and Mount Helena from Last Chance Gulch, so we had wonderful, steep streets. When it snowed you could slide past Judge Cooper's house all the way to the railroad station in the valley part of town. The Coopers lived just below us in a fairly elegant house with an iron fence around it.1 In 1918 a flu pandemic swept the world, and one of its countless victims was 39 year old David Williams. This prompted his widow Ella to move with children Myrna and nine year old David to Los Angeles. There Myrna attended the Westlake School for Girls where at the age of 15 she caught the acting bug. In 1924-5, she came to the attention of silver screen big-hitters Rudolph and Natacha Valentino, following which doors of opportunity began to open. Her first film, released in 1925, was What Price Beauty? Later the same year she appeared alongside young Joan Crawford in Pretty Ladies.

Published Jan 18, 2010 Published Monday January 18, 2010 Curtain to rise on family's story By Bob Fischbach WORLD-HERALD STAFF WRITER PURDUE LIBRARIES' ARCHIVES AND SPECIAL COLLECTIONS Frank and Lillian Gilbreth with 11 of their 12 children sometime in the 1920s. When “Cheaper by the Dozen” opens Friday night at the Omaha Community Playhouse, three generations of an Omaha family will be excited to be there. That's their family's story being told onstage. “Cheaper by the Dozen,” a book about the life of a family with 12 children, became a best seller in 1948. A hit movie version, starring Clifton Webb and Myrna Loy as parents Frank and Lillian Gilbreth, followed in 1950. The Gilbreths were industrial engineers, efficiency experts who studied repetitive motion. The movie finds humor in the efficient way Frank ran his home and his large family. Irene Gilbreth, 91, widow of Frank and Lillian's son Dan, will be at the playhouse Friday, along with her daughter, Peggy Nipper, 68, and grandson, Zach Nipper, 35. A fourth generation, great-granddaughter, Claire Nipper, 3, is too young to attend. Though the family home, as the book records, is in Montclair, N.J., Peggy is the reason for the Omaha branch. Her husband, Henry, is an associate professor of pathology and assistant dean for admissions for Creighton University's medical school. They moved here in 1986. When Peggy's mother got older, she moved from the East Coast to Omaha to be near her daughter.

Emerging scholarly research around screenwriting practice often focuses on questions of the craft – is screenwriting a technical or creative act? – and whether or not the screenplay’s only destiny is to disappear into the film (Carriére, cited in Maras 1999, 147).

  • Belles on Their Toes
    REMEMBER "CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN"? HERE AGAIN ARE THE GILBRETHS, THE FAMILY ALL AMERICA TOOK TO ITS HEART! • The college graduation class marched slowly to the raised platform. Jane Gilbreth, whose mor- tarboard was cocked at a jaunty angle atop her shining red curls, looked eagerly along the crowded aisles as she marched. Then, locating her sister, Anne, and her other brothers and sisters, all eight of them, her eyes lighted. But, see- ing the empty aisle seat beside Anne, her lips formed a soundless question. "Where's Mother?" Anne's lips shaped the words, "I don't know." She looked back worriedly as the procession reached the platform, and her face cleared as she saw her mother hurrying in. Lillian Gilbreth — Mother — came swiftly down the aisle. In her sixties, her hair was white, but her figure was still slim and erect. As she slipped into the empty seat, Anne smiled. "Hello, Mother." Ernestine, the next oldest of Mother's children, leaned forward and greeted her eagerly. In turn—they sat according to the differences in their ages —did Frank, Martha, Bill, Lillian, Fred, Dan and Jack. When Father had still been alive, the family had been an even dozen. It was, they had always maintained, cheaper that way. "Where were you, Mother?" Anne whispered. "I ran into someone from the Engineering Department—" An attractive man in the seat in front turned around, frowning. Then, seeing who it was, he hailed her warmly. "Hello, Bob, dear." Settling back, she scanned the platform. "Where's Jane?" "Fourth from the right," Anne told her.
