  • Rose La Rose and the Re-Ownership of American Burlesque, 1935-1972
    TAUGHT IT TO THE TRADE: ROSE LA ROSE AND THE RE-OWNERSHIP OF AMERICAN BURLESQUE, 1935-1972 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Elizabeth Wellman Graduate Program in Theatre The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Jennifer Schlueter, Advisor Beth Kattelman Joy Reilly Copyright by Elizabeth Wellman 2015 ABSTRACT Declaring burlesque dead has been a habit of the twentieth century. Robert C. Allen quoted an 1890s letter from the first burlesque star of the American stage, Lydia Thompson in Horrible Prettiness: Burlesque and American Culture (1991): “[B]urlesque as she knew it ‘has been retired for a time,’ its glories now ‘merely memories of the stage.’”1 In 1931, Bernard Sobel opined in Burleycue: An Underground History of Burlesque Days, “Alas! You will never get a chance to see one of the real burlesque shows again. They are gone forever…”2 In 1938, The Billboard published an editorial that began, “On every hand the cry is ‘Burlesque is dead.’”3 In fact, burlesque had been declared dead so often that editorials began popping up insisting it could be revived, as Joe Schoenfeld’s 1943 op-ed in Variety did: “[It] may be in a state of putrefaction, but it is a lusty and kicking decomposition.”4 It is this “lusty and kicking decomposition” which characterizes the published history of burlesque. Since its modern inception in the late nineteenth century, American burlesque has both been framed and framed itself within this narrative of degeneration.

  • Available on Dvd at Your Library
    WESTERNS AVAILABLE ON DVD AT YOUR LIBRARY FAMOUS ADAPTATIONS 3:10 to Yuma This tale of a rancher badly in need of money who volunteers to help guard an infamous outlaw en route to prison is based on an Elmore Leonard short story and has been adapted twice for the big screen. The 1950s film stars Van Heflin as the rancher and Glenn Ford as the outlaw while the 2007 version features Christian Bale as the rancher and Russell Crowe as his infamous nemesis. The Magnificent Seven The 1960 American remake of a Japanese film transferred the action to the Old West and featured some of the then-biggest names in Hollywood (including Yul Brynner, Steve McQueen, and Charles Bronson) as gunfighters hired to protect a small Mexican village from a psychotic outlaw (Eli Wallach) and his gang. The recent remake keeps the Old West setting and includes Denzel Washington, Vincent D’Onofrio, and Chris Pratt as some of the guns for hire. True Grit True Grit is a stellar novel about a determined young woman named Mattie who hires the irascible Rooster Cogburn to hunt down the outlaw who murdered her father. The original 1960s movie won John Wayne a Best Actor Oscar for his performance as Cogburn while the more modern version (starring Jeff Bridges) won the Coen Brothers much acclaim for its departure from their usual distinctive style. WESTERN TELEVISION SERIES Bonanza The Cartwrights are a wealthy family of ranchers in Nevada, circa the 1860s. The show focuses on the adventures of level-headed, wise Cartwright patriarch Ben (Lorne Green) and his 3 adult sons: intellectual Adam (Pernell Roberts), gentle Hoss (Dan Blocher), and fiery Little Joe (Michael Landon).

    September 2016 Remembering the Wild, Wild Westerns Remembering the Wild, Wild Westerns – see page 2. Webfooters Post Card Club PO Box 17240 Portland OR 97217-0240 www.thewebfooters.com Remembering the Wild, Wild Westerns Before Batman, before Star Trek and space travel to the moon, Westerns ruled prime time television. Warner Brothers stable of Western stars included (l to r) Will Hutchins – Sugarfoot, Peter Brown – Deputy Johnny McKay in Lawman, Jack Kelly – Bart Maverick, Ty Hardin – Bronco, James Garner – Bret Maverick, Wade Preston – Colt .45, and John Russell – Marshal Dan Troupe in Lawman, circa 1958. Westerns became popular in the early years of television, in the era before television signals were broadcast in color. During the years from 1959 to 1961, thirty-two different Westerns aired in prime time. The television stars that we saw every night were larger than life. In addition to the many western movie stars, many of our heroes and role models were the western television actors like John Russell and Peter Brown of Lawman, Clint Walker on Cheyenne, James Garner on Maverick, James Drury as the Virginian, Chuck Connors as the Rifleman and Steve McQueen of Wanted: Dead or Alive, and the list goes on. Western movies that became popular in the 1940s recalled life in the West in the latter half of the 19th century. They added generous doses of humor and musical fun. As western dramas on radio and television developed, some of them incorporated a combination of cowboy and hillbilly shtick in many western movies and later in TV shows like Gunsmoke.

  • Joseph Waters
    Transcript of oral history interview with Joseph Waters Gladstone/ Maplewood Fire Department, 1980-2007 by Kate Cavett of HAND in HAND Productions and Bob Jensen, President, Maplewood Area Historical Society for the Maplewood Area Historical Society December 16, 2013 at HAND in HAND Productions’ office in Saint Paul, Minnesota 1 © Maplewood Area Historical Society 2014 This project has been made possible by the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund through the vote of Minnesotans on November 4, 2008. Administered by the Minnesota Historical Society. All pictures are from the Waters family and Maplewood Area Historical Society 2 ORAL HISTORY Oral History is the spoken word in print. Oral histories are personal memories shared from the perspective of the narrator. By means of recorded interviews oral history documents collect spoken memories and personal commentaries of historical significance. These interviews are transcribed verbatim and minimally edited for accessibility. Greatest appreciation is gained when one can listen to an oral history aloud. Oral histories do not follow the standard language usage of the written word. Transcribed interviews are not edited to meet traditional writing standards; they are edited only for clarity and understanding. The hope of oral history is to capture the flavor of the narrator’s speech and convey the narrator’s feelings through the timbre and tempo of speech patterns. An oral history is more than a family tree with names of ancestors and their birth and death dates. Oral history is recorded personal memory, and that is its value. What it offers complements other forms of historical text, and does not always require historical corroboration.
