    ANYTHING GOES -Sutton Foster and Joel Grey Star As Reno Sweeney and Moonface Martin in Cole Porter's Musical Cruise Across the Atlantic Ocean

    ANYTHING GOES -Sutton Foster and Joel Grey star as Reno Sweeney and Moonface Martin in Cole Porter's musical cruise across the Atlantic Ocean. BOOK OF MORMON, THE -Have they written it on golden plates? Only the creators (South Park + Avenue Q) know for sure. CHICAGO – There’s never been a better time to experience Broadway’s razzle-dazzle smash. A sensational tale of sin, corruption and all that jazz, it has everything you could want in a musical: knockout dancing, an edge-of-your-seat story, and one showstopper after another. CHINGISH - Playwright David Henry Hwang (M. Butterfly) explores the cultural barriers between America and China - especially linguistic ones - in this timely new comedy. COLUMNIST, THE - David Auburn's (Proof) latest drama portrays the dilemma faced by powerful Washington columnist Joseph Alsop, who publicly hosts the Kennedy Camelot circle while keeping hidden deep parts of himself. Starring John Lithgow. DEATH OF A SALESMAN - One man and his family are caught up in the pressures and delusions of living the American Dream. Miller's play is the story of a traveling salesman whose illusions of picture-perfect business and family life cave in on him. Philip Seymour Hoffman stars as the distressed salesman Willy Loman in Arthur Miller's masterpiece. Also starring Andrew Garfield and Linda Emond. END OF THE RAINBOW - It's December 1968 and Judy Garland is about to make her comeback…again. In a London hotel room with her young new fiancé at her side, Garland battles with a tornado of drugs and alcohol as she undertakes an exhausting series of concerts at the Talk of the Town to try and reclaim her crown as the greatest talent of her generation.

Using portraits of Mrs. Nieman’s mother and father as references, he worked with cut pages from Nieman Reports and from the Foundation’s archival material to create this likeness. About the portrait on page 6: Alexandra Garcia (left), NF ’13, an Emmy Award-winning multimedia journalist with The Washington Post, based her acrylic portrait with collage on the photograph of Agnes Wahl Nieman standing with her husband, Lucius Nieman, in the pressroom of The Milwaukee Journal. The photograph was likely taken in the mid-1920s when Mrs. Nieman would have been in her late 50s or 60s. Garcia took inspiration from her Fellowship and from the Foundation’s archives to present a younger depiction of Mrs. Nieman. Video and images of the portraits’ creation can be seen at http://nieman.harvard.edu/agnes. A Nieman lasts a year ~ a Nieman lasts a lifetime SUMMER/FALL 2013 VOL.
