A Note About Contemporary Theatre, Film, and Television and Who's Who in the Theatre Contemporary Theatre, Film, and Television is a continuation of Who's Who in the Theatre, expanded to include film and television personalities. The editors believe this change in coverage of the series makes for a more representative and useful reference tool. To provide continuity with the last edition of Who's Who in the Theatre, the cumulative index at the back of this volume interfiles references to Who's Who in the Theatre, 17th Edition, with references to this first volume of Contemporary Theatre, Film, and Television.

Preface The worlds of theatre, film, and television hold an undeniable appeal, and the individuals whose careers are devoted to these fields are subjects of great interest. The people both behind the scenes and in front of the lights and cameras—writers, directors, producers, performers, and others—all have a significant impact on our lives, for they enlighten us as they entertain. Contemporary Theatre, Film, and Television Continues and Improves Who's Who in the Theatre Contemporary Theatre, Film, and Television (CTFT), a comprehensive new biographical guide, is designed to meet the need for information on theatre, film, and television personalities. Existing biographical sources covering entertainment figures are generally limited in scope, focusing only on theatre, for example, as was the case with Who's Who in the Theatre (WWT). For more than seventy years WWT provided reliable information on theatre people. However, when the editors began reviewing names for inclusion in a proposed supplement to the seventeenth edition of WWT, they recognized that they were eliminating large numbers of people who, though not active in the theatre, make significant contributions to other entertainment media. Thus, the editors believe that expanding the scope of WWTio encompass not only theatre notables but film and/or television figures as well provides a more useful reference tool. In addition to its expanded scope, CTFT improves upon WWT in other important ways. WWT was published in editions, with the majority of the biographies in every edition being updated and included in subsequent editions. Since entries were dropped from one edition to the next only when listees had been inactive for a sustained period or when active listees died, the number of new entries it was possible to include in each WWT edition was governed in part by how many old ones were dropped. CTFT, however, will be published annually in volumes, and each volume will cover primarily new, entirely different personalities. Thus CTFTs coverage will not be limited by the number of entries that can be listed in a single volume, and cumulative indexes will make the entries in all CTFT volumes easily accessible. Entry format, discussed in greater detail later in this preface, has also been improved in CTFT. Instead of presenting information with minimal paragraphing, as was the case in WWT, the editors have divided CTFT entries into numerous clearly labeled sections to make it easier to locate specific facts quickly. And the inclusion of hundreds of photographs of the personalities listed in C77wi, 1982; others. 257

"I am involved with the Actors' Equity Alien Committee. I feel that far too many American actors go unemployed or have the growth of their careers delayed or retarded because of the 'open door' policy extended to British actors. Steaming is an example of an American actress capable of performing a British role with credibility and style. Had the British actress been allowed to come, my career possibly would not have blossomed as it did. Therefore, I am very involved in helping the American audience understand that they need to encourage and support their artists first, as England supports theirs.''

"I got into acting by lucky accident. I had performed in school plays etc., but had never given the theatre serious consideration as a career. In the early 50's, I was working at different jobs in New York and got employed as night-time penny arcade attendant working on the 2 a.m. to 10 a.m. shift. There I met another employee named John Darley, who spent his evenings directing an off off-Broadway group before coming up to the arcade to earn his living. He was the son of Otis Skinner's stage manager, had spent all his life in the theatre and was very knowledgeable about it. I asked if he needed an actor. He said yes, and as soon as I attended my first rehearsal I made the fatal judgement; 'I can do that.' . . . But I am aware of how lucky I've been. I try to respect my craft, and the people who care about it, and the people who hopefully and patiently watch us and celebrate with us if we get it right.''

"I am among a group of fortunate people who have had a career thanks to the regional theatre movement in America. The regional theatres, particularly the Tyrone Guthrie Theatre, gave me an extraordinary place to work at my craft in an atmosphere and amongst other craftsmen where one could not help but learn and grow. I started in the theatre as a performer—even had my equity card—before making a decision, rather late, to put all my energy into design— something I hadn't done since high school. Working with Jo Mielziner, an extraordinary two years, mostly because of the man as a person, gave me my first look at Broadway close up. It was not what I was looking for in the theatre. Odd circumstances brought me to the Guthrie to work in the property department. Here I found rich soil for my growth. With the help of generous people—Tanya Moiseiwitch, Peter Zisler, Michael Langham—I discovered the sort of theatre where serious exploration is built on respect, trust, honesty, and great good humor. . . . Our work was, of course, flawed at times, but it never lacked for serious pursuit of fine, honest theatre. That read through it all. Here I learned what my goal in all the work should be: an authentic visual extension of the playwright. There is no question in my mind that art is craft practiced with perception. Most of us who work as commissioned, commercial artists are first and foremost craftsmen. On occasion, when we are allowed to look beyond the horizon for a glimpse of what is there, our well-oiled craft lets us share it with others. . . . I'm no athlete at all, but love to swim. Traveling is a great pleasure. I've spent a lot of time in Europe, particularly Italy—lived in Florence for four months. Favorite city there: Naples. Theatre is a way of life. Birth certificates are written on the backs of Equity cards, I believe. I love mountains. Would have been a sculptor. Shape is the most telling visual thing in the theatre. I came into design through the theatre, not through art or architecture. Because of this, I constantly wage an inner battle over my painting and drawing skills—always wanting to improve my communication ability. As a result, some of my happiest hours away from the theatre are in life drawing sessions."

KARRAS, Alex, actor
Trom 1962 to 1965,1 was a student in a play writing seminar presided over by Herbert Berghof at the HB Studio in New York. Each student was required each week to write a two-character one-act play of about ten pages. The plays would be read at each of our weekly meetings by actors from scene-study classes at the Studio. Each play was then criticized by anyone who had something to say. We'd then take the plays home and rework them. The plays were then made available to acting students at the Studio. The playwright was notified when a play of his (or hers) was to be performed. He'd see the play done and he'd have another opportunity to rework it. I saw some of my plays done dozens of times by different actors. In some cases, I'd rework a play every time I saw it done. This was how I learned the craft of play writing.

SIDELIGHTS: "After a full life of opera, concert work, marriage, five children, travels all over the world with a career Army husband, at the age of forty-plus, I fell into the theatre, a dream nurtured since early childhood. A few years to learn my craft in Minnesota and then an all-or-nothing try in New York. I owe it all to the Equity Library Theatre, which gave me my big break as Sally Adams in Call Me Madam. To my everlasting joy, it has been constant work and many rewards. Many TV commercials afford me the chance to sometimes take a role for "art's sake" like the Nurse in Romeo and Juliet. Where else but in New York can one fulfill all of her dreams? I look forward to many more roles and shall always be grateful for the opportunities accorded me to pursue my acting career with such positive and rewarding stimulation."

"My plays fall into three catagories: adaptation; works I do under commission; and wholly personal, creative efforts, which are always the toughest to promote. Where do I get my ideas? Nowhere. Everywhere. What we need are not so many young playwrights—they're all over the place—but some young producers. Old ones, too. Essentially, I'm a storyteller. To a certain extent, I suppose, I do favor plot over character. What advice would I give to the aspiring playwright? Don't let anyone put you or your play down. If you don't believe in your play, no one else will. And remember— there are no creative absolutes. Don't let anyone tell you differently."

I am a true film buff, a self-educated scholar in the 'history of the cinema' as both art and entertainment.

I am an amateur photographer and a gourmet cook and am well travelled, but not nearly so well as I'd like to be. I have recently completed a mini-series for a major network which deals with the relationship between Louis B. Mayer and Irving Thalberg and the history of MGM. It was a labor of love.''

He has also written comedy material for Bert Lahr, Jack E. Leonard, and Sid Caesar. Lawrence did a nightly newscast during the Second World War from a hut near Caserta, Italy. In 1945, it was the only English news that came in loud and clear in Yalta. One night, Mr. Churchill lit up his after-dinner cigar and beckoned to Mr. Roosevelt, mumbling, 'Well, let's see what Sergeant Lawrence has to say to us tonight.' There were witnesses."
Plays have been produced also at People's Light and Theater Company, PA, The Company of Angels, CA, and throughout U.S., Canada, and Europe. "I began as a fiction writer and actress, but as part of a mainstream of American women who came to maturity during the women's revolution, I began to feel that I could communicate better in a more direct, dynamic and assertive way—[writing for] the stage!"

In answering if he thought shows like All in the Family have had any effect on bigotry, Mr. Lear says: "If the Judeo-Christian ethic has had no effect on prejudice over the last 2,000 years, I'd be an awful fool to think we could do it in a half-hour of comedy. I do what I do, not because I expect to change the world, but because I love it. The entertainment business is a tough business and it can be incredibly frustrating, but there's nothing in the world I'd rather be doing. If there's anybody anywhere having a better time, you'll have to point him out to me."

SIDELIGHTS: MEMBERSHIPS—Dramatists Guild; Writers League of America. "I wrote my first novel at the age of 10 in 1941 and sold my first short story at age 18 in 1949. After serving in the Army, I moved to New York City and into full-time writing, creating hundreds of short stories and seven novels sold. Once my career was established, I moved back to Chicago, got married and submitted my first play, Here Lies Jeremy Troy to New York producer Elliot Martin in 1965; it was optioned and produced that summer. There are now over 47 plays and musicals. . . . My musical instincts stem from childhood, when I was a piano-playing prodigy doing Chopin, Liszt, et al. with easy abandon, and slated to become a concert pianist before I was out of my teens—but I found the daily practicing a drag, and much preferred composing my own music. . . .

SIDELIGHTS: "After their marriage, the Stillers began acting with Joe Papp's just-formed Shakespeare Company in Central Park. Jerry was usually cast as a clown or oaf and Anne was cast as the leading lady. Their salaries were small. One day they discovered that the ushers made more. This revelation plus the two factors that they wanted to have children, and that their innate comedic talents were surfacing, led the Stillers to leave the legitimate theatre and form a comedy team. In addition to their act together, Jerry and Anne have taken time in recent years to continue their acting careers; Jerry has popped up several times on numerous television sitcoms such as Alice, Private Benjamin, No Soap Radio and Amanda s. Both hope to star in their own television special in the near future."

'Harold Prince, the producer, has said that casting is 90% of direction, and I suppose 99% of playwrighting is sweat. It's the 1%, when a character takes over the typewriter, that's the joy. Putting Act I, Scene 1, Page 1 on a piece of paper is giving over a period of your life, all too voluntarily, to discouragement and loneliness, and, usually, with no promise of it becoming a reality on stage. If and when it does, there is another kind of joy—the collaborative process during which, suddenly, it is no longer your baby. It is a child who has learned to walk. And even though the monetary rewards are, for the most part, few and far between, for the average playwright, one feels in good company."

Marionette, 1983: Crazy as Zaloom; Villager Theatre Award, The Villager, NY; 1979: Fruit of Zaloom. SIDELIGHTS: MEMBERSHIPS—Puppeteers of America, Union Internationale de la Marionette, Performing Artists for Nuclear Disarmament, Puppetry Guild of Greater New York, Executive Board, 1983-84, Member of the Bread and Puppet Theatre, 1971-76 (full-time). Since 1976, he has been a part-time member of the company. "Zaloom's work animates found-objects, debris, junk, and toys as puppets and environments in short plays, and he uses conventional hand-puppets. He also creates paper videotapes (or "crankies"), a scroll of paper with illustrations that is unrolled with an accompanying narration. Zaloom designs and builds all of his puppets, draws all paper videotapes, and directs and performs all the work. Two elements can be found in all my work: first it is all funny. My primary objective is to make people laugh. Secondly, it is political. By "political," I mean that the work is about real issues and events in the world today as I see them. I do not espouse any political line or suggest any solutions. I try to reduce complex issues like acid rain, deterioration of U.S. underground water supplies, book banning, the greenhouse effect, civil defense planning, nuclear war, ocean dumping, etc. into simple, clear, accurate puppet scenes. But if the audience doesn't laugh, then I have failed. Ideally, the audience does laugh and has a great time; then simultaneously or even the next
