  • THE ELEANOR ROOSEVELT PROGRAM April 13, 1951 Description
    THE ELEANOR ROOSEVELT PROGRAM April 13, 1951 Description: In the opening segment, ER and Elliott Roosevelt respond to a listener's question about the different commissions that are a part of the United Nations. In the interview segment, ER's guest is Shakespearean actor Maurice Evans. In a final segment, ER quotes a passage from the Declaration of Independence. Participants: ER, Elliott Roosevelt, Maurice Evans [ER:] How do you do? This is Eleanor Roosevelt speaking. It gives me great pleasure to visit with you as I do each day at this time from my living room atop the Park Sheraton Hotel overlooking New York. I'm grateful for the many encouraging letters you send me, and most happy that you find my guests both informative and entertaining as I do. Now my son Elliott, who assists me on these programs will speak to you. [Elliott Roosevelt] Yes I will Mother, thank you. Today's guest Mr. Maurice Evans [1901-1989] has brought Shakespearian plays to life for many people in many places but his role on today's program will be strictly Mr. Evans playing himself. Mrs. Roosevelt will introduce him a little later on the program but first we're going to look over the mail and also hear a message from the sponsors who make this recorded program possible. (Break 1:00-1:05) [Elliott Roosevelt:] Mother, today I have a request from Mrs. Tony Rosengarten of Point Pleasant Pennsylvania. She says she wants to learn much more from you about the United Nations, and especially about the different commissions, what is done and what could have been done.

  • THE NAFF COLLECTION (Location: Range 4, Section 5 – NR Workroom)
    THE NAFF COLLECTION (Location: Range 4, Section 5 – NR Workroom) The Naff Collection is an accumulation of programs, autographed photographs, posters, folders, booklets, announcements and a few other items which tell the story of professional theater in Nashville between the years 1900 and 1960. This material was collected by the late Mrs. L. C. Naff during the period in which she served as secretary to the Rice Bureau and later as manager of the Ryman Auditorium. She bequeathed the collection to Francis Robinson, assistant manager of the Metropolitan Opera, who began his career as an usher at the Ryman. On March 27, 1967, Mr. Robinson made the formal presentation of the collection to the Public Library of Nashville and Davidson County, Charles C. Trabue, chairman of the board, and Marshall Stewart, chief librarian. The public was invited to this ceremony at which the collection was on display. The materials had been listed by chronological periods and arranged by Ann Dorsey, head of the reference department, Edward Durham and Terry Hudson. After the material had remained on exhibit for one month, it was packed for storage. In January 1971, it was decided that the collection should be classified and indexed so that it might be more readily available to researchers and other interested parties. The holdings in the Naff Collection have been classified as follows: NAFF COLLECTION CLASSIFICATIONS Advertising Announcements Descriptive Folders Letters and Telegrams Librettos Newspaper Clippings Photographs Posters Programs: Concerts Dances Lectures Miscellaneous Musical Comedies Operas Operettas Orchestras Plays Recitals Souvenirs Variety Realia Scripts Souvenir Booklets The subject headings of the various collections will most likely lead to desired information, particularly if the medium of a performer is known.

In a world where the word where the word “legend” can get overused, let’s be clear. Carl Reiner was a legend. He started in comedy during WWII. He performed on stage, on the radio, on TV and movies. He did it all. He was on TV at a time when TV was this weird new thing that nobody was really sure what to do with. All that’s pretty amazing. The important thing is, though, that the stuff that Carl worked on—it’s really funny, still. He created The Dick Van Dyke Show, one of the greatest TV shows of all time. He co-wrote and directed Steve Martin’s The Jerk. And, you know, his best buddy was Mel Brookes—best buddy and collaborator. The two of them hung out together pretty much every day. Carl Reiner kept working right up until the end, too. One of my favorite recent things he did was on the television show Parks and Recreation. He played Ned Jones, the president of Pawnee Seniors United.

Booth's credits include science fiction classics like the ant-themed ‘Them!’ (1951) and the original ‘Outer Limits’ TV show (the episode "ZZZZZ", also insect themed; during it's production John F. Kennedy was assassinated). Booth even guest-starred on Ron Harper's series "Garrison's Gorillas" ("Bankers' Hours") but doesn't remember anything of import about that.. He would eventually work with Ron again as Zaius in the ‘Planet of the Apes’ TV series. Of course there’s much more to Booth than just that but it’s best we hear it in his own words: JEFF: First of all, Booth, I want to wish you a happy birthday. about that. This was about 1934, something like that; 1932. March 8th, right? At any rate, I got the part. That was the introduction. BOOTH: That's right, yes. JEFF: I guess that would be when you fell in love with acting? JEFF: Did you know that was the date that they filmed the BOOTH: No, it sort of grew on me. Because I did plays in makeup test with Edward G. Robinson (as Dr. Zaius)? Portland, the Civic Theatre Group. And I found that I BOOTH: Really?
