    CONTACTING THE WORLDS OF EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS Actor Johnny Sheffield Dies at 79 Johnny Sheffield, best known for playing the part of “Boy” to Johnny Weissmuller’s Tarzan in three MGM and five RKO movies, suffered a fatal heart attack on 15 October at his home in Chula Vista, CA . Born in 1931, he died at age 79, the same age as Weissmuller when he passed away. Johnny’s father, British actor Reginald Sheffield, spotted an adver- tisement in The Hollywood Reporter that asked, “Do you have a Tarzan Jr. in your backyard?” Johnny, who had already acted on stage, includ- ing Broadway, was chosen, at age 7, out of more than 300 candidates for the part of the adopted son of Tarzan and Jane in 1939’s “Tarzan Finds a Son!” He would reprise the part in seven more films, ending with 1947’s “Tarzan and the Huntress,” Weissmuller’s second-to-last movie as the ape-man. While Weissmuller would go on to play “Jungle Johnny Sheffield at his table in the dealer’s Jim” in 13 features for Columbia (1948-1954), Johnny Sheffield took room during the 2000 Dum-Dum in on the starring role of “Bomba, the Jungle Boy” in 12 Monogram Grandville, MI. Pictures films from 1949 to 1955. His father then created, produced, and directed a TV pilot, “Bantu the Zebra Boy,” starring Johnny, but they could not find a sponsor. Soon after, Johnny left the film business. His father passed away in 1957, which may have had something to do with Johnny finding a new direction to his life.

  • A Feminist Perspective on New Orleans Jazzwomen
    A FEMINIST PERSPECTIVE ON NEW ORLEANS JAZZWOMEN Sherrie Tucker Principal Investigator Submitted by Center for Research University of Kansas 2385 Irving Hill Road Lawrence, KS 66045-7563 September 30, 2004 In Partial Fulfillment of #P5705010381 Submitted to New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park National Park Service 419 Rue Decatur New Orleans, LA 70130 This is a study of women in New Orleans jazz, contracted by the National Park Service, completed between 2001 and 2004. Women have participated in numerous ways, and in a variety of complex cultural contexts, throughout the history of jazz in New Orleans. While we do see traces of women’s participation in extant New Orleans jazz histories, we seldom see women presented as central to jazz culture. Therefore, they tend to appear to occupy minor or supporting roles, if they appear at all. This Research Study uses a feminist perspective to increase our knowledge of women and gender in New Orleans jazz history, roughly between 1880 and 1980, with an emphasis on the earlier years.
