    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Taming Anna by Elle Vaughn From Love to Art: Anna Hyatt Huntington, an American Sculptor. Anna Hyatt Huntington (1876-1973) was born Anna Vaughn Hyatt near Boston. Her grandmothers, mother Audella, and older sister Harriet helped her fall in love with art. In fact, she initially took up sculpture in order to follow Harriet, with whom she sometimes collaborated. While her female relatives inspired her career, her father influenced her subject matter. Alpheus Hyatt was a zoologist and paleontologist, so it is little wonder that Anna chose to specialize in animal sculpture. She seems to have enjoyed a close connection to and understanding of animals, both of which shine through in her art. Huntington started her career by making small-scale animal figurines. She was successful in this popular genre, selling hundreds of copies of some creations. She received between $25 and $335 for even the more modest versions. This was especially true once she moved to New York in 1902 or 1903. Although Anna Hyatt Huntington made her reputation through small works, she didn’t stop there. She soon graduated to large- scale public sculpture projects. Joan of Arc. In 1915, Huntington received a monumental commission for Riverside Park in New York City – an equestrian statue of the medieval French heroine Joan of Arc (ca. 1412-1431). Huntington had first planned Joan of Arc while in Paris in 1910. While the huge horse kept with her specialty of animal sculpture, the work overall represented a significant departure in scale and subject matter. Horses, in general, and equestrian statues particularly would thereafter feature prominently in her career.

  • A Selectively Annotated Bibliography of William S. Burroughs V. 3.0
    I ANYTHING BUT ROUTINE: A Selectively Annotated Bibliography of William S. Burroughs v. 3.0 by Brian E. C. Schottlaender The Audrey Geisel University Librarian UC San Diego Libraries 2012 II PREFACE to v. 3.0 This third edition of Anything but Routine includes an entirely new section, “Video Recordings” (Section F). Not only is Burroughs’ film work with Antony Balch and others well documented in various video formats, but a number of Burroughs’ readings over the years are likewise well documented. Section F represents a first attempt to pull these disparate materials together in one place. In addition, particular attention has been paid in this v. 3.0 to promotional materials, including: • Press Kits • Press Releases • Posters, and • Publishers’ Prospectuses. These can be found in Section G. Quantitatively, v. 3.0 includes 1,127 numbered entries (and hundreds more sub-entries), as compared to the 1,077 entries in v 2.0., an increase of almost 5%. III INTRODUCTION The bibliography of William S. Burroughs is as challenging as the man was himself. He wrote voluminously and kaleidoscopically. He rearranged, recycled, and reiterated obsessively. He produced across five decades and four continents. He was a novelist, a poet, an essayist, and a correspondent at home in all media. He never met a “little magazine” or an interviewer he wouldn’t share with. There have been a few attempts at documenting the range of Burroughs’ prodigious output over the years—some better than others. I initially conceived of this bibliography as an update of Joe Maynard’s and Barry Miles’ definitive William S.
