The Looking Glass : New Perspectives on Children’s Literature - 1 - Vol 17, No 3 (2014) Tammy L. Mielke – “Using Ambiguity to Resist Stereotypes in the 1930s: Erick Berry’s Penny Whistle and One String Fiddle.” Emerging Voices Using Ambiguity to Resist Stereotype in the 1930s: Erick Berry’s Penny-Whistle and One String Fiddle Tammy L. Mielke Tammy L. Mielke teaches Children’s and Young Adult Literature at the University of Wyoming. Her research areas focus on the transmission of culture in literature, specifically the historical and political shifts in text and illustration of children and young adult literature over multiple decades of publication. The 1930s were a difficult time economically for many groups suffering during the Great Depression in the United States, but this decade was especially trying for the African American population and the marginalized people of the Appalachian region. While both cultures were highlighted in the Work Progress Administration’s Federal Writers’ Project (1935-1942), a federally sponsored program for writers who collected oral histories, each group also suffered under the dominant culture’s perceptions, which viewed each culture as isolated, uneducated, and at the bottom rungs of the social hierarchy. Despite the predominant view, these populations were featured in the works of American author Erick Berry. In 1930, Berry wrote about a black boy named Penny-Whistle in her picture book Penny-Whistle and then in 1939, Berry published the chapter book One-String Fiddle about Irby, an Appalachian boy. There is no other author in that decade who published books with African characters and Appalachian characters. -

3 Guide to Crowdsourcing Mimi Onuhoa Jeanne Pinder Jan Schaffer Tow Center for Digital Journalism Funded by the Tow Foundation and the A Tow/Knight Guide James S. and John L. Knight Foundation 5 Acknowledgments We would like to thank the Tow Center for Digital Journalism at Columbia University for supporting our research. Emily Bell, Liz Boylan, and, in par- ticular, Claire Wardle were an unending source of wisdom, support, common sense, and encouragement. Claire’s expertise in eyewitness media and her clear vision have been immensely valuable. Our research also benefited greatly from the generosity of our interview sub- jects, who opened up their schedules and minds to tell us of their triumphs and challenges in this brave new world. To a person, they were thoughtful and candid, and we regret that we could not record every word here to mark and celebrate their contributions. We are also grateful to those crowdsourcing experts who had already paved the way for our research—both those whom we interviewed and those we didn’t— whose work has nonetheless been instrumental in bringing this practice to where it is today. Finally, we offer special thanks to a group of people that has unknowingly and significantly affected this report: the community members who have contributed to crowdsourcing projects, giving their time and energy to build a campaign finance database, share what they paid for medical procedures, or create a living compendium of all the people killed by police in the United States. You, com- munity contributors, have demonstrated faith in journalists and a belief that we can work together to create journalism of great substance and meaning. -

Biographical Dictionary of Kansas Artists (Active Before 1945)
Biographical Dictionary of Kansas Artists (active before 1945) Compiled by Susan V. Craig, Art & Architecture Librarian Univ. of Kansas August 2006 1 This book began with a 1981 reference question about John Noble, a name I did not recognize despite having studied art history and worked as an art librarian for more than 10 years. Learning that John Noble was a Kansas artist, I went looking for the best available book on Kansas art only to learn the resources were few. As a new faculty member at the Univ. of Kansas, I needed to establish a research project so I decided to prepare a dictionary of Kansas artists thus fulfilling both the research requirement and educating myself about the history of the visual arts in my native state; I just didn't intend the project to take 25 years or realize that I would have more than 1750 entries in the dictionary. I began by defining the scope of the work: • "Kansas artist" was loosely defined as artists who were both born in the state as well as artists who were born elsewhere but were artistically active in Kansas. Under this latter definition, I included artists who produced significant artworks such as the murals installed in Kansas post offices. Occasionally, artists who lived or worked primarily in Kansas City, MO may be included. I did not deliberately include all Kansas City artists but neither did I exclude them if the name came from a Kansas source such as the Kansas State Gazetteer. • Another choice I made was to look for artists who were artistically active before 1945. -

Painting Today and Yesterday in the United States (June 5–September 1)
1941 Painting Today and Yesterday in the United States (June 5–September 1) Painting Today and Yesterday in the United States was the museum’s opening exhibition, highlighting trends in American art from colonial times onward as it reflected the unique culture and history of the United States. The exhibition also exemplified the mission of the SBMA to be a center for the promotion of art in the community as well as a true museum (Exhibition Catalogue, 13). The exhibition included nearly 140 pieces by an array of artists, such as Winslow Homer (1836–1910), Walt Kuhn (1877–1949), Edward Hopper (1882–1967), Yasuo Kuniyoshi (1889–1953), and Charles Burchfield (1893–1967), and A very positive review of the exhibition appeared in the June issue of Art News, with particular accolades going to the folk art section. The Santa Barbara News-Press wrote up the opening in the June 1 edition, and Director Donald Bear wrote a series of articles for the News-Press that elaborated on the themes, content, and broader significance of the exhibition. Three paintings from this exhibition became part of the permanent collection of the SBMA: Henry Mattson’s (1873–1953) Night Mystery, Max Weber’s (1881–1961) Winter Twilight, and Katherine Schmidt’s (1899–1978) Pear in Paper Bag (scrapbook 1941–1944–10). The theme of this exhibition was suggested by Mrs. Spreckels (Emily Hall Spreckels (Tremaine)) at a Board meeting and was unanimously approved. The title of the exhibition was suggested by Donald Bear, also unanimously approved by the Board. Van Gogh Paintings (September 9) Seventeen of Vincent van Gogh’s (1853–1890) paintings were shown in this exhibition of the “most tragic painter in history.” This exhibition was shown in conjunction with the Master Impressionists show (see “Three Master French Impressionists” below). -

Gray, acting as art critic for the Carmel Pine Cone, called his Meditation “a technically interesting portrait of a real person.”15 Hammond served on the Club’s exhibition committee.16 That same summer he visited the Laguna Beach art colony and exhibited at its local art association.17 In late October of 1924 he displayed twelve paintings, “mostly studies of the country around Monterey and Carmel,” at the Gump Gallery in San Francisco and sold two.18 A month later he contributed to the Annual at the Oakland Art Gallery.19 He and his wife were very active in the Carmel social scene and hosted the Laguna Beach artist, Anna Hills, as a house guest; she in turn invited the Hammonds to Laguna Beach.20 In April of 1925 he and his family permanently returned to New England.21 In 1929 he exhibited with the Gloucester Society of Artists and with the Art Association of Newport.22 We learn from the U.S. Census of 1930 that he and his family resided in Rockport, Massachusetts, and owned their own home.23 He was also a member of the North Shore Art Association and the Lynn Art Club.24 Arthur Hammond died in 1947 in Rockport.25 ENDNOTES FOR HAMMOND: 1.
