  • This Was a Time of Both Turmoil and Prosperity for America
    Lillie, Disney, 1 Cleansing the Past, Selling the Future: Disney’s Corporate Exhibits at the 1964-65 New York World’s Fair Jonathan J. M. Lillie JOMC 242 History Paper 5/3/02 Park Doctoral Fellow The School of Journalism and Mass Communication The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Lillie, Disney, 2 Abstract This paper offers a historical analysis of Disney’s corporate exhibits at the 1964-65 New York World’s Fair, GE’s “Carousel of Progress” and Ford’s “Magic Skyway,” in an attempt to consider their historical and cultural significance. The coming together of Disney’s legacy of nostalgic entertainment achieved via his desire and skill in “improving” the past and future with the equally strong desire of corporate giants to sell themselves and their products is presented here as a case study of the processes of cultural creation: how and why specific discourses of technology and consumption are written in to these narratives of the past and the future. Introduction Between April 22, 1964 and October 17, 1965 fifty-one million people experienced the New York World’s Fair.1 The mid-1960s was a time of both turmoil and prosperity for America. President Kennedy had been assassinated only months before the Fair’s opening. In southern states such as Alabama the civil rights protest movement was drawing national attention. While cold war tensions remained high following the Cuban Missile Crisis, the nation was enjoying the height of postwar economic prosperity and geo-political power. The Fair’s twin themes of “Man’s Achievements in an Expanding Universe” and “A Millennium of Progress” captured the exuberance of the times, celebrating “the boundless potential of science and technology for human betterment.”2 The 1939 New York World’s Fair was in many ways a predecessor to the 1964-65 exhibition.

CONTENTS FOREWORD 3 BIBLIOGRAPHY 9 DIRECTORY OF INSTITUTE MEMBERS, 1930-1954 205 MEMBERS WITH APPOINTMENTS OF LONG TERM 265 TRUSTEES 269 buH FOREWORD FOREWORD Publication of this bibliography marks the 25th Anniversary of the foundation of the Institute for Advanced Study. The certificate of incorporation of the Institute was signed on the 20th day of May, 1930. The first academic appointments, naming Albert Einstein and Oswald Veblen as Professors at the Institute, were approved two and one- half years later, in initiation of academic work. The Institute for Advanced Study is devoted to the encouragement, support and patronage of learning—of science, in the old, broad, undifferentiated sense of the word. The Institute partakes of the character both of a university and of a research institute j but it also differs in significant ways from both. It is unlike a university, for instance, in its small size—its academic membership at any one time numbers only a little over a hundred. It is unlike a university in that it has no formal curriculum, no scheduled courses of instruction, no commitment that all branches of learning be rep- resented in its faculty and members. It is unlike a research institute in that its purposes are broader, that it supports many separate fields of study, that, with one exception, it maintains no laboratories; and above all in that it welcomes temporary members, whose intellectual development and growth are one of its principal purposes.

  • The Tricky Part
    Don’t Miss The Tricky Part at Mondavi by Chris Narloch f you are a fan of meaty, moving theater, you won’t want to miss the highly acclaimed, OBIE Award-winning play The ITricky Part, coming to the Mondavi Center this June, courtesy of the UC Davis Department of Theatre and Dance. A true story of sexuality, spirituality and the mystery of human experience, The Tricky Part is one of the most heralded one-man plays in recent memory. Between the ages of 12 and 15, Martin Moran had a sexual relationship with an older man. Many years later, Moran found and confronted his abuser. Moran, a New York-based actor and author, has transformed his story into a riveting, often funny and always surprising journey through the complexities of Catholicism, desire and human trespass. The New York premiere of ‘The Tricky Part’ received a 2004 Obie Award and two Drama Desk nominations including Outstanding Play. The New York Times hailed the work as “a translucent memoir of a play … shattering.” Martin Moran was awarded a 2013 Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Off-Broadway Solo Show for All the Rage. His Broadway and off-Broadway credits include: Spamalot, Cabaret, Titanic, Bells Are Ringing, and How To Succeed in Business…. Film and television credits include The Newsroom, The Big C, and Law & Order. See Martin Moran in his acclaimed production of The Tricky Part this June 1-3 at 7 p.m. in the Vanderhoef Studio Theatre at the Robert and Margrit Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts. Tickets are $20 for adults and $10 for students and may be purchased through MondaviArts.org, by phone at 530-754-2787 or at the door.

  • ''What Lips These Lips Have Kissed'': Refiguring the Politics of Queer Public Kissing
    Communication and Critical/Cultural Studies Vol. 3, No. 1, March 2006, pp. 1Á/26 ‘‘What Lips These Lips Have Kissed’’: Refiguring the Politics of Queer Public Kissing Charles E. Morris III & John M. Sloop In this essay, we argue that man-on-man kissing, and its representations, have been insufficiently mobilized within apolitical, incremental, and assimilationist pro-gay logics of visibility. In response, we call for a perspective that understands man-on-man kissing as a political imperative and kairotic. After a critical analysis of man-on-man kissing’s relation to such politics, we discuss how it can be utilized as a juggernaut in a broader project of queer world making, and investigate ideological, political, and economic barriers to the creation of this queer kissing ‘‘visual mass.’’ We conclude with relevant implications regarding same-sex kissing and the politics of visible pleasure. Keywords: Same-Sex Kissing; Queer Politics; Public Sex; Gay Representation In general, one may pronounce kissing dangerous. A spark of fire has often been struck out of the collision of lips that has blown up the whole magazine of 1 virtue.*/Anonymous, 1803 Kissing, in certain figurations, has lost none of its hot promise since our epigraph was penned two centuries ago. Its ongoing transformative combustion may be witnessed in two extraordinarily divergent perspectives on its cultural representation and political implications. In 2001, queer filmmaker Bruce LaBruce offered in Toronto’s Eye Weekly a noteworthy rave of the sophomoric buddy film Dude, Where’s My Car? One scene in particular inspired LaBruce, in which we find our stoned protagonists Jesse (Ashton Kutcher) and Chester (Seann William Scott) idling at a stoplight next to superhunk Fabio and his equally alluring female passenger.

In a 2011 interview, King noted that he knew from an early age that he was "going to go into show business." Toward that goal, after graduating from a Scranton public high school, he applied to New York City's Juilliard School, one of the premier performing arts conservatories in the country. Unfortunately, his family could not afford Juilliard's high tuition, and King instead attended the more affordable Mercyhurst University, a Catholic liberal arts college in Erie, Pennsylvania. Mercyhurst had a small theater program at the time, which King later learned to appreciate, explaining that he received invaluable personal attention from the faculty and was allowed to explore and grow his talent at his own pace. However, he left college after three years without graduating, driven, he said, by a desire to move to New York and "make it as an actor." In New York, King worked multiple jobs, such as waiting on tables and unloading buses at night, while studying acting during the day at the famed Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute.
