ANDER- SON was born of an old Norwegian sturdy and hardy stock in the town of Cambridge, Massachusetts, on October 15, 1891. Almost from the day on which he could take a pencil in hand he was fascinated by and attracted to the artistic means of expression afforded on a flat surface. At the age of thirteen, he moved to Philadelphia, where a few years later he became a matriculate at the Pennsylvania Museum School of In- dustrial Art. Awarded a scholarship for his promising and merito- rious work there, Mr. Anderson became inspired further by the association with men active in all forms of artistic enterprise and began the deep study of antique and mod- ern art. While thus absorbed, his canvasses were ac- cepted by numerous publishers. The outbreak of the Great War, instead of disrupting his procession, offered a stimulus for it, particularly in the depiction of the history of the Medical Corps while assigned to duty with the Unit of Medical Illustrators.

  • The Films of Allan Dwan
    Ik NO. 29 The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release iWest 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modernart PIONEER FILM DIRECTOR HONORED BY MUSEUM OF MODERN ART Allan Dwan, at 86 one of America's oldest living directors and with over 400 films to his credit, will be honored with a five-week film re­ trospective beginning March 4 at The Museum of Modern Art. The series, assembled by Peter Bogdanovich, a filmmaker himself, spans 45 years of the director's career, from the 1912 film "The Fear" to "The River's Edge," a 1957 Western and one of Dwan's last films. Mr. Bogdanovich is the author of the new book AJ_J[a^nJDwanj^_jni_e_Jj_a^st_ published by Praeger concurrently with the Museum series. Allan Dwan has directed such noted stars as Gloria Swanson, Douglas Fairbanks, Sr., Victor McLaglen, Wallace Beery, Shirley Temple and John Wayne. Some of his most well-known pictures, included in the Museum tribute, are "Robin Hood," a 1922 film with Douglas Fairbanks, Sr. ; "The Iron Mask" (1929), also starring Fairbanks; "Suez" (1938), the epic with Tyrone Power and Loretta Young; and "The Sands of Iwo Jima" (1949), the war film for which John Wayne received his first Oscar nomination. Allan Dwan, who has worked in many genres, began his career in motion pictures almost by accident. An engineer, he designed special lights for the Essanay Studio in Chicago and was supervising their use on the set, when he learned that the studio paid $25 for scripts. He began writing with such success that he was asked to be Essanay' s scenario editor.

  • ABSTRACT Jack Clemo's Vocation to Evangelical Poetry and Erotic
    ABSTRACT Jack Clemo's Vocation to Evangelical Poetry and Erotic Marriage: an Examination of his Poems of Personal Tribute and Critique Heather R. Martin, Ph.D. Director: Ralph C. Wood, Ph.D. Jack Clemo, whose dates are 1916-1994, calls to us from the margins: a working-class voice from deep within in the china clayworks of Cornwall, having been educated outside the conventional system, contending with deafness and blindness for most of his life; a believer whose fierce Evangelical non-conformist religiosity was at odds with an increasingly secularized Britain; a poet who, insisting that his art serve God no less than the world, embraced the erotic as a necessary component of Christian faith and life; and thus a man whose yearning for both marital and poetic companionship is as heartfelt as it is unyielding. Clemo believed he had a divine calling to be an evangelical poet and a married man: a dual vocation that seemed impossible given his physical, social, and educational limits. In the process of fulfilling that vocation, which he did despite poverty, blindness, and deafness, his poetry often “gives testimony” through the varied artistic and spiritual influences he encountered. These portrait poems and dramatic monologues generally fall into three categories: theologians and preachers, saints and missionaries, and artists and writers. For Clemo, these testimony poems document the verity of the Christian faith that he both aspired to and lived by. The predominant themes that connect these poems are evangelism and marriage, reflecting Clemo’s concern with fulfilling his twin vocation. This dissertation concentrates on how Jack Clemo’s quest to fulfill his vocation intersects with his dramatic monologues and portrait poems, demonstrating that his aspirations shaped these poems and in turn that these poems helped Clemo to imagine and define what it means to be an evangelical poet and a priest of erotic marriage.
