  • 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.

  • “Can't Help Singing”: the “Modern” Opera Diva In
    “CAN’T HELP SINGING”: THE “MODERN” OPERA DIVA IN HOLLYWOOD FILM, 1930–1950 Gina Bombola A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2017 Approved by: Annegret Fauser Tim Carter Mark Katz Chérie Rivers Ndaliko Jocelyn Neal ©2017 Gina Bombola ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Gina Bombola: “Can’t Help Singing”: The “Modern” Opera Diva in Hollywood Film, 1930–1950 (Under the direction of Annegret Fauser) Following the release of Columbia Pictures’ surprise smash hit, One Night of Love (1934), major Hollywood studios sought to cash in on the public’s burgeoning interest in films featuring opera singers. For a brief period thereafter, renowned Metropolitan Opera artists such as Grace Moore and Lily Pons fared well at the box office, bringing “elite” musical culture to general audiences for a relatively inexpensive price. By the 1940s, however, the studios began grooming their own operatic actresses instead of transplanting celebrities from the stage. Stars such as Deanna Durbin, Kathryn Grayson, and Jane Powell thereby became ambassadors of opera from the highly commercial studio lot. My dissertation traces the shifts in film production and marketing of operatic singers in association with the rise of such cultural phenomena as the music-appreciation movement, all contextualized within the changing social and political landscapes of the United States spanning the Great Depression to the Cold War. Drawing on a variety of methodologies—including, among others, archival research, film analysis, feminist criticisms, and social theory—I argue that Hollywood framed opera as less of a European theatrical art performed in elite venues and more of a democratic, albeit still white, musical tradition that could be sung by talented individuals in any location.

  • Films from the THIRTIES: PART II 1935-39
    t% The Museum of Modern Art 1] West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 245-3200 Cable: Modernart No. 83 FOR RELEASE: Friday, August 25, I968 Films from THE THIRTIES: PART II 1935-39 The Museum of Modern Art, will present a retrospective of films from the thirties beginning August 23, and running through October 6. The Thirties, according to Willard Van Dyke, Director of the Department of Film, will consist of 39 pictures, representing some of the richest creative talent in American cinema at a time that has been called "the dear, dead days not beyond recall." Two years ago the Museum presented The Thirties, U.S.A., Part I, covering the first half of the decade. The films being shown now as Part II were made from 1935 ^^ 193 '• Among the pictures to be shown are: Frank Capra's "Lost Horizon"; Paul Muni in "The Life of Emile Zola," the Story of a Northern Jew's lynching in the South; the great thriller "Night Must Fall," an adaptation of the Emlyn Williams play starring Robert Montgomery; and "The Good Earth," a spectacle film in black and white, from Pearl Buck's popular novel, for which Luise Rainer won her second Academy Award, with Paul Muni in the starring role. The latter part of the thirties was characterized by further achievements in the musical film, largely due to the talents of Fred Astaire, who with Ginger Rogers starred in "Top Hat," and "Shall We Dance," both of which are in the retrospective. The most important contributions to the annals of films made in the thirties was the series of "snowball" comedies Hollywood turned out at a time of grim, economic hardships.

  • The Museum of Modern Art
    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release May 1995 EXHIBITIONS AT THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART HONOR FOUNDING OF THE UNITED NATIONS This summer, The Museum of Modern Art joins in a worldwide series of cultural and educational events to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of the United Nations, which was founded June 26, 1945. THE UNITED NATIONS IN PERSPECTIVE, an exhibition tracing the planning and design of the U.N.'s historic New York headquarters, and UN50: FROM THE UNITED NATIONS FILM ARCHIVES, a film program featuring works produced by U.N. agencies, together honor the foremost organization dedicated to promoting and establishing world peace, democracy, and human rights. THE UNITED NATIONS IN PERSPECTIVE June 15 - September 26, 1995 This exhibition explores the architectural development of one of the most important symbolic structures built after World War II. The four buildings (constructed 1947-52) that make up the United Nations headquarters complex also constitute the architectural apotheosis of modernism's functionalist aesthetic, which attempted to prevail over established national traditions and prejudices. The exhibition includes approximately thirty-five original drawings (many displayed for the first time), fifteen contemporary color photographs by Adam Bartos, and a model, as well as several books and pamphlets. - more - 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y 10019-5498 Tel: 212-708-9400 Fax: 212-708-9889 2 An international board of design -- ten architects, including renowned modernists Le Corbusier (France), Oscar Niemeyer (Brazil), and Sven Markelius (Sweden), directed by Wallace K. Harrison (American) -- developed the concept for the United Nations headquarters. Hugh Ferriss, one of America's most gifted architectural draftsmen, translated the architects' sketches and ideas into beautifully rendered perspectives.

Puttin’ on the Glitz: Hollywood’s Influence on Fashion examines the major impact that Hollywood had and continues to have over fashion. This exciting exhibit highlights films and designers from Hollywood’s golden years through the 20th century, all presented within a historical context. Items on display include significant books, journals, images, videos, and movie posters from the Libraries’ collections, and stunning costumes from UCI’s drama department. The curator is Becky Imamoto, Research Librarian for History. I hope you enjoy the exhibit and return to view others in the future. Gerald L. Lowell Interim University Librarian - 3 - this exhibit examines the history of Hollywood costume design from its inception to the end of the 20th century. In the early 1910s, costume design was little more than an afterthought, with silent screen actresses providing costumes from their personal wardrobes. However, during the Golden Age (1930- 1959), Hollywood realized how much publicity and money could be generated through its promotion of new fashion designs, and so set to work building an image of splendor, luxury, and endless consumption. Hollywood was, and is, a powerful social force that determines what is considered by the rest of the world to be beautiful and glamorous.
