  • General Meeting 2018
    GENERAL MEETING 2018 January 2018: TONY HORTON – THE REAL GLENN MILLER STORY Once again we enjoyed a session with Tony, this time on a perennial favourite, the Big Band leader, Glenn Miller. Tony dispelled some of the myths about Glenn that were put into the 1954 hit film “The Glenn Miller Story”, starring James Stewart and June Allyson. The film was principally about the courtship and marriage of Glenn and Helen Miller. The facts we heard were that Miller was born in Iowa in 1904, the son of a railway worker father and farmer mother. He earned pocket money from milking cows and firstly spent some on a mandolin, before giving it up for a trombone. He formed a small band from class mates and at university ended up going on gigs, rather than attending to his studies and exams. Whilst a very good trombone player, he was not outstanding, but his forte was making musical arrangements and was in demand for this particular skill. Joining Ben Pollacks Band, which included other musicians who went on to make their mark in the music industry, Miller eventually moved to New York, where, driven by his wife Helen, he formed a jazz band, without any success. Miller played as a jobbing trombonist for several bands before teaming up with the British Dance Band leader, Ray Noble. Because of the Union restrictions on entertainers in America and Britain, Noble was not permitted to take his own musicians, so engaged Miller to recruit musicians for him. However, there was a big difference between the two men as Miller preferred jazz music and his arrangements were in that genre, whereas Noble was a ballad man, so this difference led to a parting of the ways.

Dell Katherine “Kit” Duffy Adrienne J. Goodman Marie J. Kuda Mary D. Powers 2 3 4 CHICAGO LGBT HALL OF FAME The Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame (formerly the Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame) is both a historic event and an exhibit. Through the Hall of Fame, residents of Chicago and the world are made aware of the contributions of Chicago’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) communities and the communities’ efforts to eradicate bias and discrimination. With the support of the City of Chicago Commission on Human Relations, its Advisory Council on Gay and Lesbian Issues (later the Advisory Council on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Issues) established the Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame (changed to the Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame in 2015) in June 1991. The inaugural induction ceremony took place during Pride Week at City Hall, hosted by Mayor Richard M. Daley. This was the first event of its kind in the country. Today, after the advisory council’s abolition and in partnership with the City, the Hall of Fame is in the custody of Friends of the Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame, an Illinois not- for-profit corporation with a recognized charitable tax-deductible status under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3).

  • Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
    Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability.
