The single most useful secondary source was New Orleans Jazz: A Family Album by Al Rose and Edmond Souchon. I John Chilton's Who's Who of Jazz also proved helpful. Up from the Cradle of Jazz by Jason Berry, John Foose, and Tad Jones offered much information relative to the New Orleans blues heritage, as did an earlier yet still pertinent study, Rhythm & I Blues in New Orleans by John Broven. Researchers who contributed invaluable assistance include Mr. I Plato Smith; Mr. Bruce Raeburn, Curator of the Hogan Jazz Archive; Hs. Kahne Parsons, Associate Curator of Print and Manuscript Music of the Hogan Jazz Archive; and Mr. Dirk Van I Tuerenhout who serves on the staff of the Hogan Jazz Archive. Dr. Herschel A. Franks and Dr. Jill-Karen Yakubik served as editors and compilers of the manuscript. Ms. Alison Pena of the Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve provided I invaluable comments on an earlier version of the text.

The city has been the birthplace or residence of an abundance of major performing artists in both idioms over the years. For many I musicians who were born elsewhere, it has provided an alluring attraction, drawing them in from locations within the immediate hinterland or in some cases from even more distant points. Still I others, both native and transplanted residents, have moved on from New Orleans to work at other locations, thereby functioning I as emissaries in the dissemination of the music. The annotated biography which follows could potentially have included many more individuals. However, the names which do appear provide a good representation of important performing I artists, both present and past, who have been active in the city or radiated from it to leave an imprint on the world music scene. The biographies are for the most part those of jazzmen and I jazzwomen. Many date to the formative and classic periods of the music as it took shape within the Crescent City and radiated outward. Others date to the Jazz Revival period as it I materialized locally, though even some who count within that group actually began their careers during the classic period. Numerous others are of more recent vintage, dating to the post­ World War II years.

    HOME FRONT AS WARFRONT: AFRICAN AMERICAN WORLD WAR I DRAMA BY Copyright 2010 Anna Katherine Egging Submitted to the graduate degree program in English and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Chairperson, Iris Smith Fischer Committee Members:________________________________ Maryemma Graham ________________________________ Janet Sharistanian ________________________________ Henry Bial ________________________________ Omofolabo Ajayi-Soyinka Date Defended: ___27 August, 2010_______________ ii The Dissertation Committee for Anna Katherine Egging certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: HOME FRONT AS WARFRONT: AFRICAN AMERICAN WORLD WAR I DRAMA ________________________________ Chairperson, Iris Smith Fischer Date approved:____27 August 2010_______ iii Abstract This dissertation recovers little-known African American World War I plays that blur the boundary between the home front and warfront. I argue that with this focus, the plays wage their own war for African American citizenship rights, using language and performance to gain access to the “imagined” community of the nation. Yet plays from different time periods focus on diverse aspects of the Great War; these differences provide insight into how World War I was thought of and employed, and for what purposes, in African American communities during the interwar years. The project fills an important gap in African American drama, theatre, and war literature scholarship; no book-length analysis exists, yet scholarly conversations surrounding African Americans in the Great War are energetic. Despite scholars’ arguments that the war “gave birth” to the New Negro, the plays that dramatize the subject have drifted into obscurity. Thus, this project is overdue; the plays complete the historical picture of African American drama and provide a better understanding of the ways contemporary life in the United States is still haunted by World War I.
