November 21 , 2001 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Harvey Bolgla - (212) 388-1400 I [email protected] Sara Trujillo - [email protected] Academy to Honor Actress Claire Bloom with Special Tribute at New York's Lincoln Center NEW YORK, NY November 21,2001 -- The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will honor actress Claire Bloom with a special program titled "Bold, Brave and Beautiful ... A Salute to Claire Bloom" to be presented by the Academy's New York Event's Committee at the Walter Reade Theater at Lincoln Center on Wednesday, November 28 , at 8:00 PM. The salute to Bloom's film career will feature a screening of highlights from her nearly 50 years in film. The program will be hosted by longtime CBS correspondent and renowned flutist Eugenia Zukerman. Academy Award winner Cliff Robertson, who co-starred with Bloom in "Charly", will share his reminiscences of working with her. Academy President Frank Pierson will also be in attendance. Claire Bloom was trained in the classical theater in London, where she began her acting career at the age of 17 as Ophelia in a Stratford-upon-Avon production of "Hamlet". She went on to London stage productions of "Romeo and Juliet" and "Ring around the Moon," and made her motion picture debut in Charles Chaplin's 1952 film "Limelight". Throughout Bloom's career she was featured in leading roles opposite some of the world's best-known actors. The evening's program will featured the actress in highlights from films such as "Richard III" (with Laurence Olivier), "The Spy Who Came in From the Cold" and "Look Back in Anger" (with Richard Burton), "A Doll's House" (with Anthony Hopkins), " The Brothers Karamazov" (with Yul Brynner), "The Illustrated Man" (with Rod Steiger), "The Haunting" (with Julie Harris). Bloom also worked with such actors as George C. Scott, Paul Newman, Woody Allen and Jeremy Irons. Arthur Manson, chair of the Academy's New York Events Committee, said: "Claire Bloom's distinguished career is notable for the broad diversity of roles she has played and her collaboration with many of the world's finest actors. We are proud to add her to our roster of filmmakers and stars whom we have honored in the past, including last year's honoree Teresa Wright; as well as Richard Widmark, Celeste Holm, Stanley Donen, Betty Comden, Adolph Green and the late Joseph L. Mankiewicz." ### ©A.M.P.A.S .® Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences 8949 Wilshire Boulevard Beverly Hills, CA 90211-1972 (310) 247-3000 www.oscars.org pub li ci [email protected] .

Cliff Robertson Receives 2007 Wesley L
For Immediate Release September 14, 2007 Contact: Jonathan Gaffney, President, NAA, 703.527.0226 CLIFF ROBERTSON, AVIATOR AND ACTOR, IS THE WINNER OF THE 2007 WESLEY L. MCDONALD ELDER STATESMAN OF AVIATION AWARD The National Aeronautic Association, the oldest aviation organization in the United States, is very proud to announce that Cliff Robertson is the winner of the 2007 Wesley L. McDonald Elder Statesman of Aviation Award. The Elder Statesman Awards were established in 1954 to honor outstanding Americans who, by their efforts over a period of years, have made contributions of significant value to aeronautics and have reflected credit upon America and themselves. The award was renamed this year in honor of NAA’s past chairman, Admiral Wesley L. McDonald. Previous winners have included Eddie Rickenbacker, Jimmy Doolittle, Scott Crossfield and Chuck Yeager. Robertson, a lifelong soaring fanatic, is a member of the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) President’s Council and was the founding Chairman of the EAA Young Eagles Program, a youth development initiative that has helped put more than 1.5 million future pilots into the air. The EAA’s “Cliff Robertson Work Program” for young people over the age of 16 is named in his honor. Robertson is best known for his long career as an actor in television and film, and for his Academy Award-winning performance in the 1968 film Charly. It is aviation, however, that has captured his imagination and his heart since childhood. The two paths have intersected many times in his career, with roles in films like The Pilot, The Squadron, and Midway, and Robertson has frequently used his work in the movies to support both his own vintage airplane collection and his work with the Experimental Aircraft Association.

Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability.

Shakespeare Uncovered Viewing Guide
© 2013 WNET. All rights reserved. Teaching Colleagues, Shakespeare Uncovered, a six-part series airing on PBS beginning on January 25 th , is a teacher’s dream come true. Each episode gives us something that we teachers almost never get: a compelling, lively, totally accessible journey through and around a Shakespeare play, guided by brilliant and plain-spoken experts--all within one hour. I’m not given to endorsements, but oh, I love this series. Why will we teachers love it and why do we need it? • Because, as we learned from the very start of the Folger Library’s Teaching Shakespeare Institute, teachers tend to be more confident, better teachers if they have greater and deeper knowledge of the plays themselves. • Because no matter what our relationship with the plays – we love them, we struggle with them, we’re tired of teaching the same ones, we’re afraid of some of them – we almost never have the time to learn more about them. We are teachers, after all: always under a deadline, we’re reading, grading, prepping, mindful of the next deadline. (And then there’s the rest of our lives . ) Shakespeare Uncovered is your chance to take a deep, pleasurable dive into a handful of plays—ones you know well, others that may be less familiar to you. In six episodes, Shakespeare Uncovered takes on eight plays: Macbeth, Hamlet, The Tempest, Richard II, Twelfth Night and As You Like It, Henry IV, Part I, and Henry V . The host of each episode has plenty of Shakespeare cred--Ethan Hawke, Jeremy Irons, Joely Richardson and her mom, Vanessa Redgrave, for example--but each wants to learn more about the play.
