The actress, who at one time was a Darien resident, performed in Hollywood musicals in the 1940s and '50s, and later in the television shows "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman" and "Ryan's Hope." DeHaven was born Feb. 8, 1925 in Los Angeles. She came from a show-business family: Her parents, Flora Parker and Carter DeHaven, were popular vaudeville and stage performers, and her brother, Carter DeHaven Jr., would later become a producer. When she was a child, she got a bit part in Charlie Chaplin's "Modern Times" (1936) because her father was 1 / 2 Darienite News for Darien https://darienite.com one of the film's assistant director, according to the Los Angeles Times. In 1940 she landed a small role in "The Great Dictator," another Chaplin film. In 1940, she went under contract with MGM and appeared in the film "Susan and God" while singing with orchestras. At one point, she had her own nightclub act. She received her first screen kiss from Frank Sinatra in "Step Lively" and in 1950 she played her own mother in "Three Little Words," starring Fred Astaire. When Hollywood musicals faded in the 1950s, her career took a turn, and she acted on Broadway, in summer stock, including "No, No, Nanette," and later in "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman" a soap-opera spoof in the 1970s, and the soap opera "Ryan's Hope" in the 1980s. She had many guest appearances on other television shows over the decades, including "The Lloyd Bridges Show," "Marcus Welby, M.D.," "Gunsmoke," "Mannix," "Fantasy Island," "Murder, She Wrote" and "Touched By An Angel." In 1997, she was Jack Lemmon's love interest in the comedy "Out to Sea," also starring Walter Matthau. DeHaven herself was not a major movie star, but she does have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, in front of 6933 Hollywood Blvd. DeHaven married three men, one of them twice: John Payne (from 1944 to 1950, with whom she had two children, Kathleen and Thomas Payne), Martin Kimmel (from 1953 to 1954), and Richard Fincher twice (from 1957 to 1963 and from 1965 to 1969; the couple had two children, Harry and Faith Fincher). Details on funeral services appear not to have been announced. ________ There are a slew of screen clips and other videos featuring Gloria DeHaven on YouTube, including these: 2 / 2 Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

    Miriam Colón-Valle Doctor of Humane Letters As a lifetime advocate for equitable access to the arts, the founder of the Puerto Rican Traveling Theater, and a trailblazing stage, film, and television actress, you, Miriam Colón-Valle, are a true Latina icon. Born and raised in Ponce, Puerto Rico, you started in the theater at the age of 12, and in just three short years, you landed your first feature film role, as Lolita in Los peloteros, or The Ball Players. The movie was a production of the civic-minded DIVEDCO, the Division of Community Education of Puerto Rico, a program that sought to stimulate artistic production. At the urging of your teachers and mentors, you moved to New York City to further your training and gained admission to the Actors Studio after a single audition before famed actor-directors Elia Kazan and Lee Strasberg. Your stage credits include performances on Broadway and at Minneapolis’s Guthrie Theater and Los Angeles’s Mark Taper Forum. Your long list of Hollywood credits includes the television series Bonanza, Gunsmoke, and NYPD Blue, as well as the films One-Eyed Jacks and The Appaloosa, both opposite Marlon Brando. You also played Mama Montana in Brian De Palma’s Scarface, starring Al Pacino, and had memorable roles in John Sayles’s Lone Star and City of Hope, Sydney Pollack’s Sabrina, and Billy Bob Thornton’s All the Pretty Horses. More recently, you were honored with the Imagen Award for your title role in 2013’s Bless Me, Última, Carl Franklin’s adaptation of the classic Chicano novel by Rudolfo Anaya.

Each state‘s relative share of these programs is described. The geographic themes, patterns, and images from these programs are analyzed, with an emphasis on identity in five American regions: the Mid-Atlantic, New England, the Midwest, the South, and the West. The dissertation concludes with a comparison of television‘s senses of place to those described in previous studies of regional identity. iii For Sue iv CONTENTS List of Tables vi Acknowledgments vii 1.
