  • Frances Marion and the Powerful Women of Early Hollywood
    LOS ANGELES IN 1924 was still coming in to its own. It had been Spanish territory when, a century and a half earlier, Franciscan friars cut a swath through the native villages and built the mission and plaza that soon formed the nucleus of the pueblo of Los Angeles. There was a brief Mexican reign before California was “proclaimed for America” in 1846, but while the gold rush that stimulated statehood in 1850 made a huge impact on northern California, turning San Francisco into a major cosmo- politan city, Los Angeles remained a “tough cow town.” It wasn’t until the land boom of the late 1800s that major changes grew visible, followed by an economic downturn, and soon Midwestern families were joining together to buy hundreds of acres, moving en masse to the area to create their own communities infused with their own values. The discovery and exploitation of oil quickly accelerated the changes, spurring the development of the port and interspersing lean-to refineries and wells away among the orange groves, the churches, a few hotels, and clusters of houses and shops. By the beginning of the new century, the southland was a series of three dozen incorporated towns and it was close to impos- sible to know where one began and another ended. The region was tied together by the Red Cars, electric trains running from San Fernando down to Newport Beach and from Riverside out to the Pacific Ocean, providing cheap, easy access from one town to the next for tourists and commuters alike. The sun, the dry air, and the ocean all factored into slowly but surely 1 Beauchamp.indd 1 10/26/2005 11:19:53 AM bringing the new phenomenon of movie making to the area.

    1 AUSTRALIAN EPHEMERA COLLECTION FINDING AID J.C. WILLIAMSON THEATRE PROGRAMS PERFORMING ARTS PROGRAMS AND EPHEMERA (PROMPT) PRINTED AUSTRALIANA NOVEMBER 2016 James Cassius Williamson was an American actor who immigrated to Australia in the 1870s. Along with business partners, such as William Musgrove, his theatre company became one of the most dominant in colonial Australia. After his death in 1913 the company, now named J.C. Williamson Ltd. continued under the direction of George Tallis and the Tait brothers (who remained involved in the company until the 1970s). J.C. Williamson continued to be one of the biggest theatre companies in Australia throughout the first three quarters of the 20th century. J.C. Williamson held the license for theatres in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and New Zealand (at times more than one theatre in each city). In 1976 the company closed, but the name was licensed until the mid 1980s. This list includes theatre productions held in J.C. Williamson theatres, as well as those produced by J.C. Williamson and performed in other theatres under venue hire arrangements. The list also includes libretti for overseas pantomime productions collected by J.C. Williamson for their corporate archive. CONTENT Printed materials in the PROMPT collection include programs and printed ephemera such as brochures, leaflets, tickets, etc. Theatre programs are taken as the prime documentary evidence of a performance staged by the J.C. Williamson company. In a few cases however, the only evidence of a performance is a piece of printed ephemera. In these cases the type of piece is identified, eg, brochure.

The printing of the Chronology was made possible by a publishing grant which the Detroit Public Library received from McGregor Fund. On behalf of educational institutions and individual users who will benefit through the issuance of this publication, the Library wishes to acknowledge its own and their indebtedness to McGregor Fund for invaluable and considerable financial assistance realized through this grant. INTRODUCTION As PART OF ITS CONTRIBUTION to the celebration of Detroit's 250th anni- versary, the Library undertook the preparation of a Chronology for the period 1701 to 1951. The object of the Chronology is to show Detroit in its world setting, so that events in Detroit can be viewed in the light of events of national and international importance and these larger happen- ings in turn as reflected in Detroit. "Detroit in its world setting - a 250 year chronology - 1701-1951" Page | 1 | of 296 Since the Chronology covers so many years and so many subjects, each item is obviously brief and great selectivity was necessary in choosing the events to be included.
