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 191 entries in CTFT 102, the series now provides biographies on approximately 27,015 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: •
ENTRY HEADING: the form of the name by which the listee is best known.
•
PERSONAL: full or original name; dates and places of birth and death; family data; colleges attended, degrees earned, and professional training; political and religious affiliations when known; avocational interests.
•
ADDRESSES: home, office, agent, publicist and/or manager addresses. vii
•
CAREER: tagline indicating principal areas of entertainment work; resume of career positions and other vocational achievements; military service.

Full name, Ivan Nathaniel Dixon III; born April 6, 1931, in New York, NY; died of complications from kidney failure, March 16, 2008, in Charlotte, NC. Actor, director, and producer. Best recognized as Corporal James Kinchloe in the 1960s television series Hogan’s Heroes, Dixon got his start in theatre. In 1957 he made his Broadway debut in The Cave Dwellers, and two years later appeared in the groundbreaking A Raisin in the Sun, the first Broadway-produced play written by an African-American woman. Dixon reprised his role from the play in the film version, which was released in 1961. He landed bit parts in film in the late 1950s and early 1960s before making his mark in Nothing But a Man, a film that explored racism in the Deep South and was considered progressive for its time. Dixon guest starred in episodic television in the early 1960s before joining Hogan’s Heroes as a regular from 1965 to 1970.

PERSONAL Original name, Beverly Lucy Fessenden; born October 17, 1926, in Santa Cruz, CA; died December 5, 2008, in Los Angeles, CA. Actress. Garland was best known as a B-movie actress in the 1950s and appeared in numerous television shows and films during her long career. She made her film debut in 1950 in D.O.A. then appeared in a string of low-budget, yet now classic, horror movies, including Swamp Women, Not of This Earth, and The Alligator People. Garland was a frequent performer in television, where she was known for both her dramatic chops and her comedic skills. She was a series regular in Decoy in the 1950s, Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman in the mid-1990s, and in the soap opera Port Charles in the early 2000s. Her most memorable television role, however, may have been as Fred MacMurray’s second wife in My Three Sons. From 1950 to the mid-2000s, Garland worked steadily as a guest star in episodic television, appearing in shows ranging from The Lone Ranger and Big Town in the 1950s to Remington Steele and Hotel in the 1980s, and finally to Friends and 7th Heaven in the 1990s and 2000s.

PERSONAL Full name, Isaac Lee Hayes, Jr.; born August 20, 1942, in Covington, TN; died August 10, 2008, in Memphis, TN. Musician, songwriter, and actor. Deep-voiced Hayes will be best remembered for composing and singing the Academy Award-winning theme song to the 1971 film Shaft, but younger audiences may be more familiar with his voice work as the character Chef in the irreverent animated series South Park. Hayes launched his entertainment career in music in the 1960s as a musician, writer, and producer at Stax Records in Memphis. He released his first solo album in 1967, but it was his second solo album, the 1969 release Hot Buttered Soul, that connected with audiences. Musical success continued through the early 1970s as Hayes’s next six albums shot to the top of the R&B charts. Hayes is credited with influencing such musical genres as disco and rap. Although he continued his music in the following decades, he also branched out into acting. In the mid-1970s Hayes began appearing in television and film. He had parts in such films as Escape from New York, I’m Gonna Git You Sucka, Robin Hood: Men in Tights, and Hustle & Flow. Gueststarring roles in episodic television included The A-Team and Miami Vice in the 1980s, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and The Hughleys in the 1990s, and Girl-

KITT, Eartha 1927–2008 (Eartha Mae Keith, Eartha Mae Kitt, Eartha Mae Kitt-Fields)
PERSONAL PERSONAL Born August 13, 1970, in Wilmette, IL. Education: Attended Northwestern University and Royal National Theatre, London.
Original name, Eartha Mae Keith; born January 17, 1927, in St. Matthews (some sources cite town of North), SC; died of colon cancer, December 25, 2008, in Weston, CT. Actress, singer, dancer, and writer. Incomparable entertainer Kitt will be remembered for her trademark seductive purr and sultry persona and a career that lasted more than 60 years. Television audiences will recognize Kitt for her role as Catwoman in Batman in the 1960s, but Kitt began her entertainment career in 1945 as a dancer in New York City. In 1952 she got her big break when she appeared in the Broadway production New Faces of 1952, in which she sang the song ⬙Monotonous.⬙ She subsequently appeared in a number of stage productions, including the musical Shinbone Alley, Archie and Mehitabel, and Timbuktu!, for which Kitt won an Antoinette Perry Award nomination for best actress in a musical. Cabaret performances and concerts were also part of her repertoire. Kitt’s first album, RCA Victor Presents Eartha Kitt, was released in 1954 and included the hit single ⬙Santa Baby.” Over the years Kitt recorded dozens of albums, including Bad but Beautiful, the Grammynominated Back in Business, and Eartha Kitt, released in 2007. As if her singing, dancing, and stage career were not enough, Kitt also appeared in films and television. Among her notable dramatic film roles were Gogo Germaine in the 1958 film St. Louis Blues and the title role in Anna Lucasta. In the 1990s Kitt made appearances in the comedy Ernest Scared Stupid and the family film Harriet the Spy. In addition to her role in Batman, Kitt made her mark in television with a host of guest appearances in a range of television series, including I Spy, for which she earned an Emmy Award nomination, Miami Vice, and Living Single. Later in her career Kitt worked as a voice actor. She was a series regular in the animated series The Emperor’s New School and also provided voices for episodes of My Life as a Teenage Robot and The Wild Thornberrys. Kitt wrote three memoirs, a children’s book, and a fitness book.
