Committee Chair Daniel Goldmark Committee Member Georgia Cowart Committee Member Francesca Brittan Committee Member Robert Spadoni Date of Defense April 26, 2017 *We also certify that written approval has been obtained for any proprietary material contained therein. 2 Acknowledgements Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who helped this dissertation come to fruition. I want to thank my advisor Dr. Daniel Goldmark, the Gandalf to my Frodo, who has guided me through the deepest quandaries and quagmires of my research as well as some of the darkest times of my life. I believe no one understands the way my mind works as well as Daniel and I owe him a tremendous debt of gratitude for helping me find the language and tools to write about my community and the art form I love. I also want to thank Dr. Georgia Cowart for helping me find my voice and for her constant encouragement. I am grateful to Dr. Francesca Brittan for her insights that allowed me to see the musicologist in myself more clearly and her unwavering support of this project. I also would like to thank Dr. Robert Spadoni for expanding my analytical skills and for constantly allowing me to pick his brain about drag, movies, and life.
