You're spot on with that. It's a typo. Thanks and congrats on being the first astute blues aficionado to notice it. The title has been corrected. You rock. Railroad Dave
Harriet Lee, "The Songbird of the Air", was the first singer to have her own television series, in 1931, on experimental TV station W2XAB. Thanks for this!
Ray Eames IS NOT & NEVER WAS an Industrial Designer (nor Architect). ** I am an Industrial Design graduate & know the truth of the lie behind giving Ray Eames credit for what she never did & never was. ** What follows are histories, references & original source documentations I included in a Thesis Paper I submitted for course credit in a Senior Design History Class in an Accredited Industrial Design University Program. Ray Eames' only creative background was painting & photography (photography & graphics being her ONLY contribution to the Eames' Design Office). She studied only painting before going to Cranbrook on the recommendation of a friend. She had no history, demonstrated interest or portfolio of ANY projects in Industrial Design (or Architecture) before she met Charles Eames at Cranbrook (an academy I have visited) where he was already an established Industrial Designer & instructor at the school. There is not one example of Industrial Design product (sketches, concepts or otherwise) that she solely or collaboratively created either before, during or after her marriage to Charles. It is clearly documented that George Nelson hired ONLY Charles Eames as a designer for Herman-Miller (regardless of any current "Retconing" to gift Ray credit for what she never did). There are documented HM 1950s publication photos ( cdn.nazmiyalantiquerugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/mid-century-designers-george-nelson-edward-wormley-eero-saarinen-harry-bertoia-charles-eames-jens-risom-playboy-july-1961-nazmiyal.jpg ) showing Herman-Miller's team of designers including George Nelson, Edward Wormley, Eero Saarinen, Harry Bertoia, Jens Risom, & Charles Eames (& Ray is NOWHERE mentioned or seen in the publications). HM even put out in 1972 a "Design Q&A" interview series interviewing Charles Eames ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bmgxDCujTUw.html ), in which ONLY Charles is mentioned, interviewed & giving answers (again, Ray is NOWHERE mentioned or seen as a collaborator). It is also documented that it was only Charles Eames and Eero Saarinen who were hired to design Case Study House number 9; & House #8 grew out of that project (Ray was never part of the inception of either project). Because of WWII shortages, Charles decided to redesign house #8 to what became known as the Eames House. It was characterized as "a house for a husband & wife" & Ray "as if like any client" (being the wife), gave requests for her desires for the house. That was her ONLY contribution; & as not having any Architectural experience (as Charles had), she could not contribute as a Co-Architect. I will simply state what has always been the case regarding Attribution of Architectural Credit; NEVER is any client who simply gives requests & desires for a given project ever credited also as a contributing Co-Architect on a project. It is also documented & is still listed in John Entenza's Arts & Architecture site (the creators of the Case Study House projects), that ONLY Charles Eames is credited as the Architect of Case Study house #8 ( www.artsandarchitecture.com/case.houses/houses.html ). Again, no mention of Ray AT ALL. These are all documented facts & histories that can be confirmed by visiting the sites, video & images listed above. This ALL refutes the LIE that Ray Eames was a Co-Architect or Co-Industrial Designer collaborator w/ Charles Eames or in the Eames Design Office as a whole.
@bobdobbs7704 You seem to have NO PROBLEM w/ the propagation of blatant lies Attributing Professional Credit for Architectural/Design work. Not to mention, Historical Lies.
This video proves whether Whitehead flew or not. Guy builds a replica of the Whitehead airplane, using modern materials even better than Whitehead used, says he's a pilot, but doesn't fly it. Gee, I wonder why.
Logic dictates that the Model 21 never flew. It did not have an engine or propeller capable of sufficient thrust, and it had no way to properly control altitude and direction. Whitehead must have known this because he abandoned the Model 21 and developed a totally new design which also never flew.
6:38 It doesn't matter what the Smithsonian believes. They will never acknowledge anyone except the Wrights as the first to fly. They have an agreement with the Wright heirs that allows the Smithsonian to display the Wright Flyer only so long as they recognize the Wrights as the first to fly. The Flyer does not belong to the Smithsonian. It is on loan. It belongs to the Wright heirs.
@@cardinalRG Didn't say they are. No intent to imply they are. At 6:38, there is a question of why the Smithsonian does not believe Whitehead flew. The Smithsonian may believe Whitehead flew, but they can't, and will not, say so. What they believe does not alter history.
@@wdtaut5650 --Sorry. I don’t see the point you’re trying to make, so will you kindly clarify?. Are you saying that the Smithsonian believes Whitehead flew before the Wrights, but is denying that to the public? Or do you believe that the Smithsonian is correct in claiming primacy for the Wrights? Something else?
@@cardinalRG I mean exactly what I said: it does not matter what the Smithsonian believes as to whether Whitehead flew before the Wrights. The Smithsonian is not the final authority. I am unaware they have ever denied any claims regarding Whitehead. If he does not exist in any official Smithsonian capacity, that does not mean he did not exist or fly. If there is any other point, it is this, early flight researchers will do a better job if they do not wait for Smithsonian support or recognition.
Well after i became a HUGE fan of the Dick Van Dyke Show, didci learn thst "Bsby Rose Marie" started singing at age 4. The first the i learned was the Sally Rogers in TDVDS WAS "Baby Rose Marie!" I was astonished she had such a long career! She was wonderful! Her adult singing voice altered a butceith her smoking but she still had great control over it when she sang.
" How can you be so conceited, to take my heart and then mistreat it, you can't have your cake and eat it" ...lol.. love the simplicity, you tell them RoseMarie ( RIP) Boy, she had some lung power..... Sally and Maury.. And Dick Van Dyke is still with us, he will be 97yo in December 2022.
When Harriet Lee greets "Sam", that 's Samuel Sax, the driving force behind Warner's very profitable and popular shorts in the 1930s. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Sax
