Jack Robin is first seen as the dissatisfied son of a Star Electric Co. cantor, being educated to follow in his father’s foot- steps. But the lure of popular song is too great for the 1635 St. Catherine West youth. He visualizes his name in bright lights on the (A few doors west Guy) Great White Way. So far this life seems far more glam- orous than the restrained existence of the cantor of a Licenaed Provincial synagogue.

  • Swanee”—Al Jolson (1920) Added to the National Registry: 2004 Essay by Cary O’Dell
    “Swanee”—Al Jolson (1920) Added to the National Registry: 2004 Essay by Cary O’Dell Al Jolson Original label Thanks to tributes, covers, excerpts and parodies, there are few people of any age that don’t know the chorus to “Swanee”: Swanee, How I love ya, how I love ya,… My dear old swanee…. Irving Caesar and George Gerswhin wrote it; Al Jolson made it immortal. “Swanee’s” success and endurance can be ascribed to many things, not the least of which is its cross-sectional appeal. It has the upbeat feel of a show tune (as which it began), the pride-of- place enthusiasm of a patriotic anthem, and the sing-along-ability of a campfire favorite. Along with becoming one of the songs most identified with the legendary Jolson, “Swanee” would also prove to be the prolific Gerswhin’s most successful song ever. As a recording, it sold over two-million copies and, as sheet music, one million copies. Its success allowed Gershwin to concentrate almost exclusively on his work in the theatre while solidifying Jolson’s position as one of America’s most revered entertainers. The birth of the song “Swanee” is well noted. Gerswhin and Caesar wrote it—allegedly as a response to Stephen Foster’s “Old Folk Home”--while on the upper deck of a double decker bus while traveling from the offices of the T.B. Harmes Publishing Company to Gerswhin’s apartment. As Caesar would remark later, “In those days, you wrote a song and then you tried to place it.” The first place “Swanee” was placed was in New Wayburn’s “Demi-Tasse Revue” which opened at New York’s Capitol Theater on October 24, 1919.

The Jazz Singer: Accounting for Female Agency & Reconsidering Scholarship The Jazz Singer (image courtesy of USC Warner Bros. Archive) In the early part of 2009, I was preparing to teach The Jazz Singer (1927 Warner Bros) as part of an introductory Media Histories subject for Australian university students.1 As I searched for a reading to pair with the screening, I was challenged to find a recent essay about the film that was not in dialog with Michael Rogin’s treatment of the film and his claim that blackface helped make Jews white in America.2 Despite persistent claims about the ubiquity of US culture, its transparency and even dominating tendencies, young Australian students cannot be expected to have a critical understanding of US history, race relations, policy, or politics sufficient to take on Rogin’s argument, let alone follow it. Given the pervasiveness of citation for Rogin and the expectation that my students would require guidance through the material, I was compelled to undertake a thorough review of his work in preparation for my teaching.

  • Facing Jazz, Facing Trauma: Modern Trauma and the Jazz Archive
    Facing Jazz, Facing Trauma: Modern Trauma and the Jazz Archive By Tyfahra Danielle Singleton A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature and the Designated Emphasis in Film Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Judith Butler, Chair Professor Chana Kronfeld Professor Linda Williams Fall 2011 Facing Jazz, Facing Trauma: Modern Trauma and the Jazz Archive Copyright © 2011 by Tyfahra Danielle Singleton Abstract Facing Jazz, Facing Trauma: Modern Trauma and the Jazz Archive by Tyfahra Danielle Singleton Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature University of California, Berkeley Professor Judith Butler, Chair ―Facing Jazz, Facing Trauma‖ posits American jazz music as a historical archive of an American history of trauma. By reading texts by Gayl Jones, Ralph Ellison, Franz Kafka; music and performances by Louis Armstrong and Billie Holiday; the life, art and films of Josephine Baker, and the film The Jazz Singer (1927), my goal is to give African American experiences of trauma a place within American trauma studies and to offer jazz as an extensive archive of testimony for witnessing and for study. Initially, I explore the pivotal historical moment where trauma and jazz converge on a groundbreaking scale, when Billie Holiday sings ―Strange Fruit‖ in 1939. This moment illuminates the fugitive alliance between American blacks and Jews in forming the historical testimony that is jazz. ―Strange Fruit,‖ written by Jewish American Abel Meeropol, and sung by Billie Holiday, evokes the trauma of lynching in an effort to protest the same.

  • American Jewish Theater and the Politics of Representation
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation / Thesis: A STAGE FOR A BIMA: AMERICAN JEWISH THEATER AND THE POLITICS OF REPRESENTATION . David Lyle Solomon, Ph.D. , 2004 Dissertation / Thesis Directed By: Professor Jackson R. Bryer, Department of English This dissertation examines how contemporary American Jewish playwrights and performers have presented Jewish identities in light of multicultural ism . Although American Jews have by large been supporters of the multicultural movement, in practice multicu lturalism has been problematic for Jews because of its privileging of race and gender: are Jews different enough to be included in a multicultural portrait ? Jews see themselves as outsiders to an American establishment, but are viewed as insiders. I inve stigate how contemporary Jewish voices in American theater have portrayed “Jewishness” as a permanent attribute of Jewish identity. In doing so, they articulate Jewish difference through the rhetoric of multiculturalism so that Jews are clearly positioned as distinct from an American mainstream . Contemporary Jewish playwrights have responded to popular culture’s schizophrenic representation of Jews, questioning its portrayal of Jews as everymen figures while revisiting its stereotypical representations of Jews that were intended to mark Jews as different from mainstream America. Though Jewish American culture has sought to escape stereotypes, Jewish playwrights continue to evoke them, even as they debate the value of such tropes. If stereotypes disappear , does an articulated Jew ish difference disappear with them ? In chapter one, I discuss my theoretical approach and the difficulties in defining stereotypical “Jewishness .” In chapter two, I discuss how Jewish playwrights and performers have responded to the shifting definitions of race in their presentations of Jewish identity by portraying contemporary Jewish identity through the model of the African -American experience .
