    Landmarks Preservation Commission August 6, 1985; Designation List 182 l.P-1309 ANTA THFATER (originally Guild Theater, noN Virginia Theater), 243-259 West 52nd Street, Manhattan. Built 1924-25; architects, Crane & Franzheim. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1024, Lot 7. On June 14 and 15, 1982, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the ANTA Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 5). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty-three witnesses spoke in favor of designation. Two witnesses spoke in opposition to designation. The owner, with his representatives, appeared at the hearing, and indicated that he had not formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has received many letters and other expressions of support in favor of this designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The ANTA Theater survives today as one of the historic theaters that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Built in the 1924-25, the ANTA was constructed for the Theater Guild as a subscription playhouse, named the Guild Theater. The fourrling Guild members, including actors, playwrights, designers, attorneys and bankers, formed the Theater Guild to present high quality plays which they believed would be artistically superior to the current offerings of the commercial Broadway houses. More than just an auditorium, however, the Guild Theater was designed to be a theater resource center, with classrooms, studios, and a library. The theater also included the rrost up-to-date staging technology.

  • A Caravan of Culture: Visitors to Emporia, Kansas by Charles E
    A Caravan of Culture: Visitors to Emporia, Kansas by Charles E. Webb INTRODUCTION hat do Ulysses S. Grant, "Buffalo Bill" Cody, Susan B. Anthony, Will Rogers, Ethel Barrymore, and Dr. \Verner Von Braun haye in common"? They were W among the hundreds of famous people that have visited EmpOria, Kansas during the past one hundred years. In­ dividuals and groups of national and international fame, represen­ ting the arts, seiencl's. education, politics, and entertainment, have pa~sed before Emporia audiences in a century long parade. Since 1879, this formidable array of personalities has provided informa­ tion and entertainment to Emporia citizens at an average rate of once eaeh fifteen days, The occasional appearanee of a famous personality in a small city may well be considered a matter of historical coineidence. When, however, such visits are numbered in the hundreds, arc fre­ quent, and persist for a century, it appears reasonable to rank the phenomenon as an important part of that eity's cultural heritage. Emporia, although located in the interior plains, never ae­ cepted the role of being an isolated community. It seems that the (own's pioneers eonsidered themselves not on the frontier fringi'" of America, but strategically situated near its heart. From the town's beginning, its inhabitants indicated an intention of being informed and participating members of the national and world communities. To better understand why Emporia was able to attract so many distinguished guests, a brief examination of its early development is required. In the formative years of the city's history wc may identify some of the events, attitudes, and preparations Ihat literally set the stage for a procession of renowned visitors.

  • THE NAFF COLLECTION (Location: Range 4, Section 5 – NR Workroom)
    THE NAFF COLLECTION (Location: Range 4, Section 5 – NR Workroom) The Naff Collection is an accumulation of programs, autographed photographs, posters, folders, booklets, announcements and a few other items which tell the story of professional theater in Nashville between the years 1900 and 1960. This material was collected by the late Mrs. L. C. Naff during the period in which she served as secretary to the Rice Bureau and later as manager of the Ryman Auditorium. She bequeathed the collection to Francis Robinson, assistant manager of the Metropolitan Opera, who began his career as an usher at the Ryman. On March 27, 1967, Mr. Robinson made the formal presentation of the collection to the Public Library of Nashville and Davidson County, Charles C. Trabue, chairman of the board, and Marshall Stewart, chief librarian. The public was invited to this ceremony at which the collection was on display. The materials had been listed by chronological periods and arranged by Ann Dorsey, head of the reference department, Edward Durham and Terry Hudson. After the material had remained on exhibit for one month, it was packed for storage. In January 1971, it was decided that the collection should be classified and indexed so that it might be more readily available to researchers and other interested parties. The holdings in the Naff Collection have been classified as follows: NAFF COLLECTION CLASSIFICATIONS Advertising Announcements Descriptive Folders Letters and Telegrams Librettos Newspaper Clippings Photographs Posters Programs: Concerts Dances Lectures Miscellaneous Musical Comedies Operas Operettas Orchestras Plays Recitals Souvenirs Variety Realia Scripts Souvenir Booklets The subject headings of the various collections will most likely lead to desired information, particularly if the medium of a performer is known.
