  • LONGACRE THEATER, 220-228 West 48Th Street , Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission December 8, 1987; Designation List 197 LP-1348 LONGACRE THEATER, 220-228 West 48th Street , Manhattan. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1019, Lot 50. Built 1912-13; architect, Henry B. Herts. On June 14 and 15, 1982 , the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a pub 1 ic hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Longacre Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No.44). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty witnesses spoke or had statements read into the record in favor of designation. One witness spoke in opposition to designation. The owner, with his representatives, appeared at the hearing, and indicated that he had not formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has received many letters and other expressions of support in favor of this designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Longacre Theater survives today as one of the historic playhouses that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Constructed in 1912-13, the Longacre was built to house the productions of Broadway producer and baseball magnate Harry H. Frazee . Designed for Frazee by Henry Herts, prominent theater architect, the Longacre is among the earliest surviving Broadway theaters, and has an exceptionally handsome facade. Like most Broadway playhouses built before World War I, the Longacre was designed by a leading theater architect to house the offices and theatrical productions of its owner. Though known as a baseball magnate, and at one time the owner of the Boston Red Sox, Frazee was also an influential Broadway producer who, besides building the Longacre theater, at one time also owned two other Broadway houses (the Harris and the Lyric).

His interest in genealogy began, and was stimulated, in 1854 when Deacon Alexander Drum¬ mond of Bangor (No. 68) gave him his genealogical notes on Alexander Drummond with the expectation that he would continue the work. Deacon Drummond had his information chiefly from the memory of his grandmother, who was the granddaughter of Alexander Drummond. Mr. Drummond found it exceedingly accurate and adopted much of it as authority.

  • Reel Gender: Examining the Politics of Trans Images in Film and Media
    REEL GENDER: EXAMINING THE POLITICS OF TRANS IMAGES IN FILM AND MEDIA Joelle Ruby Ryan A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2009 Committee: Susana Peña, Advisor Rekha Mirchandani Graduate Faculty Representative Bill Albertini Vikki Krane © 2009 Joelle Ruby Ryan All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Susana Peña, Advisor This dissertation examines transgender images in film, television and media from the 1950s through the present, with an emphasis on images from the 1980s through today. The primary goal of the dissertation is to interrogate the various gender and sexual ideologies contained within the representations to determine the social status of trans people in American society. How do these images function to both encourage and stymie the liberation of transgender people in the United States? The dissertation deploys trans, queer and feminist theories to critically analyze the cultural work performed by these mass-media texts. What are the trends within the trans media canon, and how do they relate to the treatment of real-world gender-nonconforming people? In order to answer these questions, I separate the trans images into four different stereotypes. For each of these stereotypes, I analyze three to four films to compare and contrast the way the films deal with the issues of gender and sexual variation. The first stereotype I examine is the Transgender Deceiver. The Transgender Deceiver utilizes drag and gender transformation to obtain something they want from society. While the films analyzed are comedies (Tootsie, Just One of the Guys, Sorority Boys, and Juwanna Mann), I argue that they are not as innocuous as they appear due to the way they stereotype gender-variant people as duplicitous, selfish and conniving.
