‘BEFORE YOU SAY “I DO”’ PRODUCTION BIOS ZEV BRAUN (Co-Executive Producer) - Chicago-born Zev Braun has been a successful and honored filmmaker for over 30 years. In 1964, his production of “Goldstein” won the Prix de la Nouvelle Critique at the Cannes Film Festival. In 1974, his co-production of Maximilian Schell’s “The Pedestrian” won the Golden Globe Award as Best Foreign Film and was nominated for an Academy Award in the same category. In 1986, Braun again teamed up with director Schell to co-produce “Marlene,” which earned him another Academy Award nomination for Best Documentary Feature along with winning the New York Film Critics Award, The National Society of Film Critics Award and the National Board of Review Award. Braun’s all-consuming interest in filmmaking led him fresh from studying Humanities and Classic Arts at the University of Chicago to enter movies while still serving as President of Braun International, his family’s packaging firm. Some of Braun’s other productions include: “Angela,” starring Sophia Loren and John Huston; “Freedom Road,” starring Muhammad Ali and Kris Kristofferson; “The Fiendish Plot of Dr. Fu Manchu,” starring Peter Sellers; and “Where are the Children,” starring Jill Clayburgh and Frederick Forrest. The 1987-88 television season saw the company produce the TV movie “Stillwatch,” starring Lynda Carter and Angie Dickinson; a four-hour mini-series, “Murder Ordained,” starring JoBeth Williams, Keith Carradine and Terry Kinney; a two-hour NBC movie, “The Father Clements Story,” starring Louis Gossett, Jr., Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Carroll O’Connor (winner of the Christopher Award and CEBA Award). “Tour of Duty,” the highly acclaimed weekly prime-time series about the Vietnam War, also premiered in 1987 and ran for three successful seasons on CBS. Other television series from Braun include “Murphy’s Law,” starring George Segal, which ran on ABC and “Bagdad Café,” starring Whoopie Goldberg and Jean Stapleton for CBS. In 1991, Braun produced “A Seduction in Travis County,” a two-hour movie for CBS, starring Lesley Ann Warren, Peter Coyote and Jean Smart. Expanding into the cable marketplace, Braun produced “Split Imagines,” a two-hour movie based upon the best selling novel by Elmore Leonard and starring Gregory Harrison. In 1994, Braun produced the critically praised four-hour mini-series “Menedez: A Killing in Beverly Hills” for CBS starring Edward James Olmos and Beverly D’Angelo. Also that year at CBS was “Dominick Dunne’s 919 Fifth Avenue,” a two-hour movie that starred Barry Bostwick, Michelle Phillips and John Rubinstein. In 1996, “Abducted: A Father’s Love,” a two-hour NBC movie starring Chris Noth, Peter MacNichol and Stepfanie Krammer, turned out to be one of the highest rated television movies for the year.

    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 .

    ABSTRACT Stereotypes of Asians and Asian Americans in the U.S. Media

    ABSTRACT Stereotypes of Asians and Asian Americans in the U.S. Media: Appearance, Disappearance, and Assimilation Yueqin Yang, M.A. Mentor: Douglas R. Ferdon, Jr., Ph.D. This thesis commits to highlighting major stereotypes concerning Asians and Asian Americans found in the U.S. media, the “Yellow Peril,” the perpetual foreigner, the model minority, and problematic representations of gender and sexuality. In the U.S. media, Asians and Asian Americans are greatly underrepresented. Acting roles that are granted to them in television series, films, and shows usually consist of stereotyped characters. It is unacceptable to socialize such stereotypes, for the media play a significant role of education and social networking which help people understand themselves and their relation with others. Within the limited pages of the thesis, I devote to exploring such labels as the “Yellow Peril,” perpetual foreigner, the model minority, the emasculated Asian male and the hyper-sexualized Asian female in the U.S. media. In doing so I hope to promote awareness of such typecasts by white dominant culture and society to ethnic minorities in the U.S. Stereotypes of Asians and Asian Americans in the U.S. Media: Appearance, Disappearance, and Assimilation by Yueqin Yang, B.A. A Thesis Approved by the Department of American Studies ___________________________________ Douglas R.

Being Edward James Olmos: Culture Clash and the Portrayal of Chicano Masculinity Abstract This paper analyzes how Culture Clash problematizes Chicano masculinity through the manipulation of two iconic Chicano characters originally popularized by two films starring dwarE d James Olmos - the pachuco from Luis Valdez’s Zoot Suit (1981) and the portrayal of real-life math teacher Jaime Escalante in Stand and Deliver (1988). In “Stand and Deliver Pizza” (from A Bowl of Beings, 1992), Culture Clash tries to introduce new Chicano characters that can be read as masculine, and who at the same time, display alternative behaviors and characteristics, including homosexual desire. The three characters in “Stand and Deliver Pizza” represent stock icons of Chicano masculinity.
