The sculptures were magnificent being able to pay close advertency to the detail. I extremely enjoyed my visit to the DMA and look forward to going back another time. The first piece of artwork I selected was “The Conversion of Saint Paul” by Benjamin West in 1786. This particular work of art is beautiful oil on canvas painting depicting the conversion of St. Paul, one of the fathers of the Christian church. The short caption that I read near the painting
Touch the eyes and Franklin will appear to say "angel wings"go downstairs and touch the painting with the angel wings. One of my all time favorite players is from my not so distant past.

Situation comedy is “based on creating a simple comic premise for each program.” (p. 130) Basically situation comedy brought fun and comic relief to TV. Lucy first starred in, My Favorite Husband. People and even herself saw what a funny, humorous person she was. She was able to find her “Lucy persona,” which was the attractive, zany, and irresistible side to her. In the book it says, “Unlike vaudeo, many TV situation comedies revolved around women stars.” (p. 132) Lucy, being one of these women stars, hit it off big when I Love Lucy started.

Credit: Wikimedia Commons Theodore Geisel is best known by the pseudonym Dr. Seuss (the correct pronunciation of Seuss rhymes with "voice" not "loose"), perhaps the most recognizable name in literature. Every December we’re treated to How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and each year young kids are introduced to classics like Green Eggs and Ham and The Cat in the Hat, yet the wider public does not appear to know much about the man behind these famous works. To gear up for the release of the CGI-animated film Horton Hears A Who!, we aim to change that by presenting five things you didn’t know about Dr. Seuss, the most familiar and beloved pen name in children’s literature. 1- Dr. Seuss adopted his pseudonym by drinking gin Geisel’s
Lucille Ball Rachel Wheeler Harrison College MGT 2200 Ms. Ward 12/7/2014 Lucille Ball “Lucy you got some ‘splainin to do,” one of the famous lines from the beloved sitcom I Love Lucy. Each generation seems to be able to enjoy the hair brained tactics of Lucille Ball long after the show and its cast have passed on. Lucille Ball is still very famous for the show I Love Lucy, but what a lot do not know is how much more she was than a gifted comedian. Tragedy struck Lucy when she was very young with the loss of her father when she was only three. Eventually her mother re-married, but Lucy’s family was never the same.
I loved Poor Little Eva, King Simon, Little Topsy, and Geoooo-rge!. Though it has been said “it wasn’t until they filmed it until they caught the delicacy, humor, and poignancy all at once” (Jerome Robbins: His Life, His Theatre, His Dance, pg 47) this paper will discuss the history of The King and I on Broadway. The King and I is one of the most well loved musicals of all time. With musical geniuses Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II writing the score, Jerome Robbins brilliantly choreographing “Small House of Uncle Thomas” and “Shall We Dance?” as well as many other dance sequences. Jo Mielziener was the set and lighting designer, Frederick Dvonch was the musical director, and Irene Sharaff was the costume designer.
The entrance itself is decorated with artifacts that you would usually see in a museum such as maps and art from Native Americans. What I personally found very impressive was the huge clock in the entrance that Jefferson designed himself. This clock had a face inside the house and outside as well. It was powered by two cannonball type weights which had to be wound each Sunday. There were also hidden stairways for the slaves to enter and disappear as needed as well as dumbwaiters throughout the house to lessen the need for slaves to actually be seen.
