  • The Karsch & Fried Families
    The Karsch & Fried Families Initial Research Prepared for Blair Adam Karsch By Michael Goldstein July 15, 2008 The Karsch Family From the Ukraine to America Kherson Gubernia, America and the Karsch Family The Karsch family ancestral origins are from the Kherson Gubernia and the towns of Kherson and Odessa. These locations are in today’s Ukraine. Little is known of the family before its arrival in the USA other than that the earliest identified ancestor was Zelig Karsch who appears to have lived somewhere in this area. Since records are kept by town no further European research is being undertaken until we are reasonably certain of the town of origin. Kherson Gubernia was an administrative-territorial unit in Russian-ruled Southern Ukraine between the Dnieper and Dniester Rivers. One of the three gubernias created after New Russia gubernia was abolished in 1802, it was called Mykolaiv gubernia until 1803, when Kherson became the new capital. From 1809 the gubernia had five counties: Kherson, Oleksandriia, Olviopil, Tyraspil, and Yelysavethrad. Odesa County was added in 1825. Odesa and their vicinity were governed separately: Odesa by a gradonachalnik answerable directly to the tsar and (from 1822) the governor-general of New Russia and Bessarabia, and Mykolaiv by a military governor. The gubernia had a population of about 1,330,000 in 1863, 2,027,000 in 1885, 2,733,600 in 1897, and 3,744,600 in 1914. In the 1850s Jews consisted 6 to 7 percent and in 1914, 12 percent. In- migration accounted for much of the population growth; e.g.

  • 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.

  • MGM 70 YEARS: REDISCOVERIES and CLASSICS June 24 - September 30, 1994
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release May 1994 MGM 70 YEARS: REDISCOVERIES AND CLASSICS June 24 - September 30, 1994 A retrospective celebrating the seventieth anniversary of Metro-Goldwyn- Mayer, the legendary Hollywood studio that defined screen glamour and elegance for the world, opens at The Museum of Modern Art on June 24, 1994. MGM 70 YEARS: REDISCOVERIES AND CLASSICS comprises 112 feature films produced by MGM from the 1920s to the present, including musicals, thrillers, comedies, and melodramas. On view through September 30, the exhibition highlights a number of classics, as well as lesser-known films by directors who deserve wider recognition. MGM's films are distinguished by a high artistic level, with a consistent polish and technical virtuosity unseen anywhere, and by a roster of the most famous stars in the world -- Joan Crawford, Clark Gable, Judy Garland, Greta Garbo, and Spencer Tracy. MGM also had under contract some of Hollywood's most talented directors, including Clarence Brown, George Cukor, Vincente Minnelli, and King Vidor, as well as outstanding cinematographers, production designers, costume designers, and editors. Exhibition highlights include Erich von Stroheim's Greed (1925), Victor Fleming's Gone Hith the Hind and The Wizard of Oz (both 1939), Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), and Ridley Scott's Thelma & Louise (1991). Less familiar titles are Monta Bell's Pretty Ladies and Lights of Old Broadway (both 1925), Rex Ingram's The Garden of Allah (1927) and The Prisoner - more - 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019-5498 Tel: 212-708-9400 Cable: MODERNART Telex: 62370 MODART 2 of Zenda (1929), Fred Zinnemann's Eyes in the Night (1942) and Act of Violence (1949), and Anthony Mann's Border Incident (1949) and The Naked Spur (1953).

  • VINCENTE MINNELLI Biography
    American MovieMakers VINCENTE MINNELLI Biography "Basically, I work to please myself," Vincente Minnelli wrote in his autobiography, I Remember It Well. "But I'm the hardest person to please that I know. I'm not an artist in the classical sense. I'm still not sure if movies are an art form. And if they're not, let them inscribe on my tombstone what they could about any craftsman who loves his job: 'Here Lies Vincente Minnelli. He died of hard work.1" Vincente Minnelli (1903-86) was a unique filmmaker who combined special affinities for composition, color, and visual detail with an innate sensitivity and sophistication to create some of Hollywood's most memorable and dazzling films. From his film directorial debut in 1943 with Cabin in the Sky (1943) -- an all-black musical featuring Ethel Waters, Lena Home, Eddie (Rochester) Anderson, and Louis Armstrong -- to such musical classics as Meet Me in St. Louis (1944), An American in Paris (1951), The Band Wagon (1953), and Gigi (1958), the dramas Lust for Life (1956) and The Bad and the Beautiful (1953), and the comedies The Long, Long Trailer (1954) and Father of the Bride (1950), Minnelli put his special stamp on a treasured and unequaled movie legacy. "I approach each film as an entirely new experience growing out of the particular material involved," he once said. "Musical, romantic comedy or tragic drama, each contains different aspects of the same basic problem. That is, to tell a story through characters, dialogue, sometimes through dance or pantomime, in a manner as nearly unique for that particular film as ability, resourcefulness, and inspiration will permit.
