Gold, Käthe, Schauspielerin (1907-1997).
Eigenh. Brief mit U. und eh. Briefkarte mit U. Wien, 1966 und 1969.
Zusammen (1¾+2 =) 3¾ SS. auf 2 Bll. Gr.-4to und qu.-8vo. Mit einem eh. adr. Kuvert. An Richard Dolberg (1888-1972) vom "Österreich-Institut" mit dem Ausdruck Ihres Bedauerns, "bei dem Vortragsabend am 11. November von Frau Yvonne Blauensteiner-Stephan [!]" nicht mitwirken zu können (20. X. 1966), und ebensowenig "bei einer Veranstaltung im Kulturinstitut": "[...] Ich bin zur Zeit nicht nur im Repertoire des Burgtheaters sehr beschäftigt - sondern stehe ausserdem noch vor Proben für ein neues Stück [...]" (10. III. 1969). - Käthe Gold war u. a. unter Otto Falckenberg an den Münchner Kammerspielen tätig, arbeitete am Theater in der Josefstadt in Wien und feierte ihre größten Erfolge seit 1934 unter Gustaf Gründgens am Preußischen Staatstheater in Berlin, "wo sie 1936 zur Staatsschauspielerin ernannt wurde. Sie spielte u. a. die Ophelia in 'Hamlet', die Minna in Lessings 'Minna von Barnhelm', das Gretchen in Goethes 'Faust' und Henrik Ibsens 'Nora'" (DBE). Nach einem Engagement am Zürcher Schauspielhaus wechselte sie zum Wiener Burgtheater, wo sie, seit 1952 Kammerschauspielerin, 1985 Abschied von der Bühne nahm. "Zu ihren wichtigen Rollen gehörten dort die Blanche in Tennessee Williams’ 'Endstation Sehnsucht' und die Laura in Strindbergs 'Der Vater'" (DBE).

Goldman Herbert G.
Banjo Eyes : Eddie Cantor and the Birth of Modern Stardom
New York: Oxford University Press 1997. A beautiful pristine copy -- bright shiny clean square tight and unmarked. Sharp corners. Obviously never read. NO chips. NO tears. NOT price clipped 35.00. NO owner's name or bookplate. NO remainder mark. Pages are fresh and crisp. NO underlining. NO highlighting. NO margin notes. Illustrated with 8 pages of photographs. List of chapter notes/sources. Numerous appendices: Bibliography. Stageography. Filmography. Radiography. Televisionography. Discography. Index. Bound in the original bright yellow boards with a brown cloth spine. From the Dust Jacket: "W.C. Fields Will Rogers Bert Williams and Fanny Brice were delighted to share the stage with him. Franklin D. Roosevelt Harry Truman Al Smith and other eminent politicians admired him and sought his support. He founded the March of Dimes raised millions for the new state of Israel and remains the only American entertainer ever to reign successively as the biggest star on Broadway in the movies and on radio. But while his name still brings a smile to those old enough to remember his antic energy and big rolling eyes few appreciate the far-reaching influence of Eddie Cantor. BANJO EYES returns the spotlight to the small unlikely figure who reigned as the clown prince of American musical theatre during a glorious era when New York was the center of the world and Broadway was the center of New York. Written by acclaimed biographer Herbert G. Goldman it vividly recreates Cantor's extraordinary journey. Here are the overcrowded tenements and sidewalk scuffles of New York's teeming Lower East Side where Cantor was born Israel Iskowitz the only child of penniless Jewish immigrants in 1892. Here is the dreaded 'hook' the cat calls and the spontaneous ovations of the old burlesque houses in which the teenaged Eddie first made his mark. And here in riveting detail is the Broadway of Florenz Ziegfeld and the Shubert brothers brimming with backstage romances double dealings fierce camaraderie and even fiercer rivalries. We follow Cantor west to Hollywood where he became the first Broadway musical star to sustain a successful film career then return east for the golden age of radio and later the early days of television. It was in radio Goldman argues that Cantor achieved lasting influence. Before Eddie a 'star' was merely an actor in the top rung of what was widely regarded as a rather curious profession. Through his repeated on-air references to his wife Ida and their five daughters Cantor made himself a 'member of the family' to millions of Americans in a way that no performer had been or had ever sought to be. And through his deep involvement with political and social causes especially those involving FDR and his own philanthropies he emerged as a public figure only slightly less revered than Roosevelt himself. Goldman shows that while the notion of the entertainer as role model and the blurring of the line between an actor's public and private life may be staples of today's celebrity culture it was Eddie Cantor who first made them so redefining what it meant to be a star in the process. Anyone intrigued by our current cult of celebrity or hungering for an unforgettable look behind the show business curtains of yesteryear will not want to miss this vibrant portrait of a beloved comedian determined to do more than make 'em laugh.". First Printing of the First Edition. Hard Cover. As New condition/As New dust jacket. 8vo. xiii 416pp. Oxford University Press Hardcover

Here is the dreaded 'hook' the cat calls and the spontaneous ovations of the old burlesque houses in which the teenaged Eddie first made his mark. And here in riveting detail is the Broadway of Florenz Ziegfeld and the Shubert brothers brimming with backstage romances double dealings fierce camaraderie and even fiercer rivalries. We follow Cantor west to Hollywood where he became the first Broadway musical star to sustain a successful film career then return east for the golden age of radio and later the early days of television. It was in radio Goldman argues that Cantor achieved lasting influence. Before Eddie a 'star' was merely an actor in the top rung of what was widely regarded as a rather curious profession. Through his repeated on-air references to his wife Ida and their five daughters Cantor made himself a 'member of the family' to millions of Americans in a way that no performer had been or had ever sought to be. And through his deep involvement with political and social causes especially those involving FDR and his own philanthropies he emerged as a public figure only slightly less revered than Roosevelt himself. Goldman shows that while the notion of the entertainer as role model and the blurring of the line between an actor's public and private life may be staples of today's celebrity culture it was Eddie Cantor who first made them so redefining what it meant to be a star in the process. Anyone intrigued by our current cult of celebrity or hungering for an unforgettable look behind the show business curtains of yesteryear will not want to miss this vibrant portrait of a beloved comedian determined to do more than make 'em laugh.".
