Preface Provides Broad, Single-Source Coverage in the Entertainment Field Contemporary Theatre, Film and Television (CTFT) is a biographical reference series designed to provide students, educators, researchers, librarians, and general readers with information on a wide range of entertainment figures. Unlike single-volume reference works that focus on a limited number of artists or on a specific segment of the entertainment field, CTFT is an ongoing publication that includes entries on individuals active in the theatre, film, and television industries. Before the publication of CTFT, information-seekers had no choice but to consult several different sources in order to locate the in-depth biographical and credit data that makes CTFT’s one-stop coverage the most comprehensive available about the lives and work of performing arts professionals.
Scope CTFT covers not only performers, directors, writers, and producers, but also behind-the-scenes specialists such as designers, managers, choreographers, technicians, composers, executives, dancers, and critics from the United States, Canada, Great Britain, and the world. With 242 entries in CTFT 97, the series now provides biographies on approximately 26,066 people involved in all aspects of theatre, film, and television. CTFT gives primary emphasis to people who are currently active. New entries are prepared on major stars as well as those who are just beginning to win acclaim for their work. CTFT also includes entries on personalities who have died but whose work commands lasting interest.
Compilation Methods CTFT editors identify candidates for inclusion in the series by consulting biographical dictionaries, industry directories, entertainment annuals, trade and general interest periodicals, newspapers, and online databases. Additionally, the editors of CTFT maintain regular contact with industry advisors and professionals who routinely suggest new candidates for inclusion in the series. Entries are compiled from published biographical sources which are believed to be reliable, but have not been verified for this edition by the listee or their agents.
Revised Entries To ensure CTFT’s timeliness and comprehensiveness, entries from previous volumes, as well as from Gale’s Who’s Who in the Theatre, are updated for individuals who have been active enough to require revision of their earlier biographies. Such individuals will merit revised entries as often as there is substantial new information to provide. Obituary notices for deceased entertainment personalities already listed in CTFT are also published.
Accessible Format Makes Data Easy to Locate CTFT entries, modeled after those in Gale’s highly regarded Contemporary Authors series, are written in a clear, readable style designed to help users focus quickly on specific facts. The following is a summary of the information found in CTFT sketches: •

ARTHUR
Contemporary Theatre, Film, and Television • Volume 97 enne, and singer. Award-winning comedy star Arthur will be remembered as the saucy Maude in the 1970s television series of the same name and also as a cast member of The Golden Girls, a television series that aired in the 1980s. Arthur began her acting career in theatre in the late 1940s and appeared in numerous productions in the 1940s through the 1960s. Among the plays in which she starred were the musicals Fiddler on the Roof, The Threepenny Opera, and Mame; her work in the latter won her an Antoinette Perry Award for best performance by a featured actress in 1967. Arthur began appearing in episodic television in the 1950s with a number of roles in Kraft Television Theatre. In 1971 she guest starred in an episode of All in the Family as cousin Maude Findlay. Arthur’s performance so impressed producer Norman Lear that he created a spin-off series, Maude, which aired from 1972 to 1978. Arthur received an Emmy Award in 1977 for the role. In 1985 she joined the ensemble cast of The Golden Girls, a comedy series costarring Betty White, Rue McClanahan, and Estelle Getty. The series aired until 1992 and garnered a slew of awards, including ten Emmy Awards. Arthur continued acting into her eighties, appearing in episodes of Futurama, Curb Your Enthusiasm, and Malcolm in the Middle.

HUGHES, John 1950–2009 (Edmond Dantes, John W. Hughes) PERSONAL Original name, John Wilden Hughes, Jr.; born February 18, 1950, in Lansing, MI; died from a heart attack, August 6, 2009, in New York, NY. Director, producer, and writer. Anyone who grew up in the United States in the 1980s will no doubt remember the coming-ofage films of John Hughes, including such now classics as Sixteen Candles, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, and Home Alone. Hughes was largely responsible for launching the careers of a number of young performers, including John Cusack, Molly Ringwald, and Macaulay Culkin. Hughes began his own career as a screenwriter. He penned National Lampoon’s Class Reunion and several other films before bringing Sixteen Candles to the big screen in 1984. In the 1980s Hughes served as director, producer, or writer of a handful of successful films, including The Breakfast Club; Weird Science; Planes, Trains and Automobiles; and Uncle Buck. Beginning in the 1990s Hughes focused more on writing, sometimes under his pen name Edmond Dantes, and occasionally producing.

PERSONAL
Original name, Michael Joseph Jackson; born August 29, 1958, in Gary, IN; died of cardiac arrest, June 25, 2009, in Los Angeles, CA. Singer, songwriter, actor, producer, director, choreographer, and dancer. Iconic pop superstar Michael Jackson first rose to fame in the 1960s and 1970s as a singer of the Jackson 5, a group that included Jackson and his older brothers. The popular group spawned an animated television series in the early 1970s in which the brothers provided the voices of their characters, and the Jackson 5 performed on such shows as American Bandstand, Toast of the Town, Soul Train, and the Carol Burnett Show. In 1976, when the group left record label Motown for CBS Records, they changed their name to The Jacksons, as the Jackson 5 was a trademark of Motown. In 1978 Jackson made his feature film acting debut as the scarecrow in The Wiz, the screen version of the Broadway musical of the same name, itself an adaptation of the film Wizard of Oz. Jackson then focused on his solo musical career, releasing the album ⬙Off the Wall⬙ in 1979. In 1982 Jackson had a smash hit with the album ⬙Thriller,⬙ and he became a pioneer in music videos, producing lengthy and memorable music videos for many of his singles. Jackson also worked with director Francis Ford Coppola in 1986 to create a 3-D film, Captain EO, that was exclusively released at Disney theme parks. Jackson’s next album, ⬙Bad,⬙ was released in 1987 and was very successful. A world tour promoting the album generated record-breaking sales. Jackson’s career slowed somewhat beginning in the 1990s, but the public’s fascination with him continued, and he became known more for his eccentric personal life than for his music. Jackson continued to produce music and occasionally appeared in television specials. At the time of his death Jackson was set to perform in 50 sold-out concerts in London. The concerts were to signify a comeback of sorts.
