Philadelphia meetings, film, & theatre

[Steven Hill]

Dear colleagues,

At  the end of December '04,  the big annual meetings of Mod.Lang.Assoc.
(MLA) and Am Assoc of Tchrs of Slav & E Eur Langs (AATSEEL) are
scheduled for Philadelphia (Pennsylvania), USA.

I wonder whether there might be enough interest & expertise to put together
an AATSEEL panel on "film+stage emigres" -- native Russians, also Poles,
Czechs, Hungarians, Ukrainians, Lithuanians, etc, etc., who eventually were
involved with  film and/or stage work in the "West" (Hollywood, Broadway,
France, England, Germany, Italy, even a few in Latin America).   From
Nazimova to Negoda, so to speak, or Kosloff to Konchalovsky....

But to put together a panel on "film emigres" or "stage & screen emigres,"
or something along those lines, about four participants would be needed.
Counting me as one,  that's only 25% of what's needed.

ANYONE ELSE INTERESTED?

Yours truly,
Steven P Hill (Univ. of IL).
