    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produoad from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the molt advanced technological meant to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality it heavily dependent upon the quality of the original lubmitted. The following explanation of techniques it provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Pags(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • The Strange Commodity of Cultural Exchange: Martha Graham and the State Department on Tour, 1955-1987
    The Strange Commodity of Cultural Exchange: Martha Graham and the State Department on Tour, 1955-1987 Lucy Victoria Phillips Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Lucy Victoria Phillips All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Strange Commodity of Cultural Exchange: Martha Graham and the State Department on Tour, 1955-1987 Lucy Victoria Phillips The study of Martha Graham's State Department tours and her modern dance demonstrates that between 1955 and 1987 a series of Cold Wars required a steady product that could meet "informational" propaganda needs over time. After World War II, dance critics mitigated the prewar influence of the German and Japanese modernist artists to create a freed and humanist language because modern dance could only emerge from a nation that was free, and not from totalitarian regimes. Thus the modern dance became American, while at the same time it represented a universal man. During the Cold War, the aging of Martha Graham's dance, from innovative and daring to traditional and even old-fashioned, mirrored the nation's transition from a newcomer that advertised itself as the postwar home of freedom, modernity, and Western civilization to an established power that attempted to set international standards of diplomacy. Graham and her works, read as texts alongside State Department country plans, United States Information Agency publicity, other documentary evidence, and oral histories, reveal a complex matrix of relationships between government agencies and the artists they supported, as well as foundations, private individuals, corporations, country governments, and representatives of business and culture.

  • THE JERRY GRAY STORY – 1955-1960 [Updated Jun 15, 2018 – Version JG.008E]
    THE JERRY GRAY STORY – 1955-1960 [Updated Jun 15, 2018 – Version JG.008e] Circa 1955: Jerry Gray and his Band of Today, with Linda Lee. AFRS/AFRTS Series EN-315. Jerry Gray appeared on at least six programs of this Series. He was interviewed on at least three of these programs, likely at the Hollywood Palladium. Bud Widom was a disc jockey/interviewer on this Series. It is unknown whether the versions of the Jerry Gray recordings used were the original Decca commercial releases or other versions. Buds Bandwagon was a 30-minute record program produced and hosted by Bud Widom. There were approximately 655 programs distributed by AFRS/AFRTS. The Billboard, Jun 4, 1955, Page 18: 3 AFRS Live Segs Axed for Economy HOLLYWOOD, May 28. – A move to eliminate all Armed Forces Radio Service productions that emanate live this week resulted in the termination of contracts of three civilian AFRS employees, disc jockey Bud Widom, sports announcer Fred Hessler, and Dave Young, announcer-narrator. Move reportedly came as a result of a recent government order to “effect a drastic budget cut,” with possible future plans of eliminating commercial AFRS shows. Widom, best known of the trio, conducted a successful disk jockey show for AFRS for the past four years, “Bud’s Bandwagon.” _______________ The Billboard, Jul 23, 1955, Page 3: Bernstein, Widom Set Up B&W Outfit HOLLYWOOD, July 16. – B&W Productions was formed here this week by packager Bud Widom and producer Richard Bernstein.

July 2021 – August 2021 A Class of ’55 lunch at Amalfi’s in Lawrenceville, NJ, last October brought out a loyal group organized by Bill Doerler, who arrived with his wife, Pat. Also in attendance were Fred Antil, Barbara Balsam Brown, Ann Farwell Hoffman, Stan and Beverly Manning, and the Usiskins (Clive and Joyce). Carol Spivak ’56 also joined the bunch. Most of them had planned to be at our 65th Reunion last June — but life didn’t work out that way. Maybe the 70th will be the magic number! Eleanor Greig Downing, who lives in Endwell, writes that she has ten grandchildren and three “greats” keeping her busy. Floyd Ayers from St. Cloud, MN, reports he’s been “training my hunting dogs” and focusing on “next year’s plans.” During his years on campus, the Clinton House was a favorite dining destination, with seafood on the menu. Daniel Krouner brought us up to date on his life with this summary: “Retired from New York State tax and finance after 26 years, and then spent remaining years in the hospitality field, managing hotels. After welcoming eight grandchildren, the family gained two new great-grandchildren and thankfully, all are healthy.” As a loyal season ticket-holder and attendee at Boston Celtics games from Albany for 55 years, Danny was honored at the NBA Hall of Fame in Springfield, MA, by the Celtics.
