    Guide to the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, 1875-1972 Brooklyn Public Library Grand Army Plaza Brooklyn, NY 11238 Contact: Brooklyn Collection Phone: 718.230.2762 Fax: 718.857.2245 Email: [email protected] www.brooklynpubliclibrary.org Processed by Lisa DeBoer, Lisa Castrogiovanni and Lisa Studier. Finding aid created in 2006. Revised and expanded in 2008. Copyright © 2006-2008 Brooklyn Public Library. All rights reserved. Descriptive Summary Creator: Various Title: Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection Date Span: 1875-1972 Abstract: The Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection consists of 800 playbills and programs for motion pictures, musical concerts, high school commencement exercises, lectures, photoplays, vaudeville, and burlesque, as well as the more traditional offerings such as plays and operas, all from Brooklyn theaters. Quantity: 2.25 linear feet Location: Brooklyn Collection Map Room, cabinet 11 Repository: Brooklyn Public Library – Brooklyn Collection Reference Code: BC0071 Scope and Content Note The 800 items in the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, which occupies 2.25 cubic feet, easily refute the stereotypes of Brooklyn as provincial and insular. From the late 1880s until the 1940s, the period covered by the bulk of these materials, the performing arts thrived in Brooklyn and were available to residents right at their doorsteps. At one point, there were over 200 theaters in Brooklyn. Frequented by the rich, the middle class and the working poor, they enjoyed mass popularity. With materials from 115 different theaters, the collection spans almost a century, from 1875 to 1972. The highest concentration is in the years 1890 to 1909, with approximately 450 items.

  • SFSFF 2018 Program Book
    elcome to the San Francisco Silent Film Festival for five days and nights of live cinema! This is SFSFFʼs twenty-third year of sharing revered silent-era Wmasterpieces and newly revived discoveries as they were meant to be experienced—with live musical accompaniment. We’ve even added a day, so there’s more to enjoy of the silent-era’s treasures, including features from nine countries and inventive experiments from cinema’s early days and the height of the avant-garde. A nonprofit organization, SFSFF is committed to educating the public about silent-era cinema as a valuable historical and cultural record as well as an art form with enduring relevance. In a remarkably short time after the birth of moving pictures, filmmakers developed all the techniques that make cinema the powerful medium it is today— everything except for the ability to marry sound to the film print. Yet these films can be breathtakingly modern. They have influenced every subsequent generation of filmmakers and they continue to astonish and delight audiences a century after they were made. SFSFF also carries on silent cinemaʼs live music tradition, screening these films with accompaniment by the worldʼs foremost practitioners of putting live sound to the picture. Showcasing silent-era titles, often in restored or preserved prints, SFSFF has long supported film preservation through the Silent Film Festival Preservation Fund. In addition, over time, we have expanded our participation in major film restoration projects, premiering four features and some newly discovered documentary footage at this event alone. This year coincides with a milestone birthday of film scholar extraordinaire Kevin Brownlow, whom we celebrate with an onstage appearance on June 2.

    Stories in Red and Write: Indian Intellectuals and the American Imagination, 1880-1930 by Kiara M. Vigil A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (American Culture) in The University of Michigan 2011 Doctoral Committee: Professor Philip J. Deloria, Chair Professor June M. Howard Professor Magdalena J. Zaborowska Assistant Professor Matthew M. Briones, University of Chicago © Kiara M. Vigil 2011 For my father, an intellectual and an artist: R. Max Vigil (1938-2006) ii Acknowledgements I could never have completed a project such as this without a tremendous amount of scholarly and personal support from other people. In particular, I am grateful for the presence of the Program in American Culture’s ever resourceful and sanguine Director, Gregory E. Dowd, and the administrative staff: Judy Gray, Mary Freiman, Tabby Rohn, Brook Posler, and Marlene Moore. In fact, Marlene, I know that I am not alone in saying that although I cannot begin to comprehend the magnitude of all that you know and do for graduate students in American Culture I have never been without an answer to an important question and a feeling of security because I have always had you there to rely on. As others have said before me, Marlene is simply the best. In addition to those I name in the pages that follow I would like to thank, more broadly, all the graduate students and faculty from American Culture at the University of Michigan for their inspiring work, and their tireless commitment to research in Ethnic Studies and American Studies.

  • Silent Film Reel, Butte, Montana
    Episode 6, 2006: Silent Film Reel, Butte, Montana Gwen Wright: Our next story examines a fragment of film that may be a missing piece of American movie history. In a French cafe in 1895, Auguste and Louis Lumiere launched a worldwide cultural revolution. They were the first to project a motion picture for a paying public. In the next 30 years, American filmmakers will produce tens of thousands of films -- short, simple, and silent -- that capture the nation’s imagination and eventually sell a vision of America to a worldwide audience. Today, the vast majority of those early films have vanished, and many of the silent era’s beloved actors are fading from our memories, unsung heroes of an industry that did not realize the importance of preserving its roots. More than 100 years after the dawn of the movie age, a man in Kentucky has found a piece of film that could open a window on that long-lost era. John Etchison: We were up in the attic, and I came across this little container that had an old film in it. It’s pretty cool that I could have part of history that nobody knew existed until now. Gwendolyn Wright: I’m Gwendolyn Wright, and I’m heading to Elsmere, Kentucky, to meet John Etchison. Hi, are you John? I’m Gwen, nice to meet you. John: A few years ago, my grandfather passed away, and so when we were cleaning out the house, there was a box of old films. Looked like it was more of a 35-millimeter than it was a home-movie thing, so I thought, maybe this is the real deal.
