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.

Scott Campbell certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: PERFECTION, WRETCHED, NORMAL, AND NOWHERE: A REGIONAL GEOGRAPHY OF AMERICAN TELEVISION SETTINGS Committee: Chairperson* Date approved: ii ABSTRACT Drawing inspiration from numerous place image studies in geography and other social sciences, this dissertation examines the senses of place and regional identity shaped by more than seven hundred American television series that aired from 1947 to 2007. 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.
