    ____________________________________________________________________ Glorifying the Jewish-American Girl: Fanny Brice, Funny Girl, and “The Streisand Phenomenon” ____________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________ “What makes [a contemporary production of Funny Girl] all the more impressive is that few actors, or theater companies outside of summer stock, dare to attempt Jule Styne's and Bob Merrill's grand spectacle that propelled Barbra Streisand's career nearly 40 years ago.” Jillian Hornbeck Ambroz, The New York Times (April 2001) “Our renewed fondness, even adoration, of Streisand is evidence of a nostalgia for a time when striving for excellence was at least as important as making a buck, and when originality was prized over focus- grouped packaging. In the early 1960s, Streisand reset the cultural parameters when she walked onstage in Funny Girl and said ‘Hello, Gorgeous’ to herself in the mirror – a slender, unusual girl who wouldn’t compromise on appearance, performance, or integrity. Fifty years later, she still matters, and for all the same reasons.” William Mann, Hello, Gorgeous (2012) ____________________________________________________________________ Alexandra Strycula Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the major in American Studies, Barnard College April 25, 2014 Thesis Advisers: Elizabeth Esch and Severin Fowles Abstract Rarely has there been a marriage of actress-and-role as lasting and profound as that
