(accessed December 12, 2018).","Robert Breen, born December 26, 1909 in Hibbing, Minnesota, served as the Executive Secretary of the American National Theatre and Academy (ANTA) from 1946-1952, and was instrumental in much of the organization's success, both domestically and internationally. In addition to serving in the U.S. Army Air Corps, Breen had an extensive background in theater. Prior to joining ANTA, Breen founded a theater program at the College of St. Thomas in Saint Paul, Minnesota, as well as established the Chicago unit for the Works Progress Administration's Federal Theatre Project with his wife, Wilva Davis Breen. Wilva herself was instrumental in promoting and guiding ANTA's many and varied operations, and getting the organization off the ground. The Breens' apartment home - situated above the Hudson Theatre in New York City, NY - served as ANTA's early headquarters. Davis Breen served as Breen's constant support and collaborator until he passed away on March 31, 1990.","The American National Theatre and Academy (ANTA) was the United States' first national theater and dance organization, in the tradition of European national theaters. Originating in 1935 with a charter from the U.S. Congress, ANTA continued until 1966 when the National Endowment for the Arts came into being. ANTA was responsible for both the presentation of American theater in the U.S. and abroad.","Although officially formed in 1935, ANTA did not begin actual operation until 1946 due to a variety of factors, including the Great Depression and World War II. During the depression, federal funding was funnelled towards the Works Progress Administration's Federal Theatre Project, another national performing arts program. In addition to these setbacks, the ANTA board, comprised of prominent citizens and business leaders from outside the theater community, could not agree on the goals of ANTA. Eventually, Robert Breen and Robert Porterfield, two men with Army and theater backgrounds, took the reins of ANTA and initiated its revitalization. Porterfield and Breen developed ANTA's \"Foundation Plan,\" with the intention of having ANTA become the foundation for and driving force behind the stimulation of growth of American theater. The plan, successfully undertaken by Breen, Porterfield, and Breen's wife Wilva Davis Breen, called for a National Foundation to make loans and grants, insure theater projects against loss, as well as a National Service Bureau to provide technical assistance for acting companies, as well as a national clearing house for theater information. The plan was adopted by the ANTA Board in 1946.","Under the guidance of Breen, ANTA produced several projects in the U.S. with successful results during the postwar years. From 1946 - 1948, ANTA sponsored a series of plays called the Experimental Theatre. Its goal was to \"present new, interesting plays which would not see production on Broadway due to present high costs.\" Admittedly, the plays were \"not necessarily perfect\" but \"worthy of a trial production in a simplified fashion\" according to an ANTA letter offering subscription to the series, which included high profile playwrights and actors. During the late 1940s and early 1950s ANTA sponsored a number of drama festivals across the U.S., featuring well-known actors. ANTA also featured a televised production of short plays for NBC television. With the intention of promoting theater growth in the U.S. and showcasing new talent, ANTA produced, supported, and promoted theater projects all across the United States.","Internationally, ANTA promoted artistic exchange between the U.S. and Europe, and entertained American troops there. This was initiated with a 1949 tour of William Shakespeare's \"Hamlet\" throughout Europe, produced by and starring Breen in the titular role. This tour famously culminated in a performance at Elsinore Castle in Denmark - the actual setting of the play. Perhaps ANTA's, as well as Breen's, greatest success came with the international tour of George Gershwin's \"Porgy and Bess\" (produced with Blevins Davis), which toured from 1952-1956, visiting 89 cities and 29 countries. The opera's performance in the Soviet Union was considered the first cultural exchange post-World War II between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. ANTA also sponsored the American National Ballet Theatre's tour of Europe in 1950, performing in eighteen cities and eight countries. The tour lasted from August to December of 1950 and played to an audience of over 150,000, and was the first international tour of any American ballet company.","ANTA also produced a number of Broadway plays and musicals out of the formerly named Guild Hall Theatre, renamed the ANTA Theatre in the 1960s and 1970s. ANTA West, which grew out of the Greater Los Angeles Chapter of ANTA in 1957, promoted and facilitated the growth of theater in the Southern California region.","Part of the Robert and Wilva Breen papers was donated to The Ohio State University.","The Special Collections Research Center does not have the equipment necessary to play  obsolete audiovisual material found in the found in the Robert and Wilva Breen papers.

Prior to joining ANTA, Breen founded a theater program at the College of St. Thomas in Saint Paul, Minnesota, as well as established the Chicago unit for the Works Progress Administration's Federal Theatre Project with his wife, Wilva Davis Breen. Wilva herself was instrumental in promoting and guiding ANTA's many and varied operations, and getting the organization off the ground. The Breens' apartment home - situated above the Hudson Theatre in New York City, NY - served as ANTA's early headquarters. Davis Breen served as Breen's constant support and collaborator until he passed away on March 31, 1990.","The American National Theatre and Academy (ANTA) was the United States' first national theater and dance organization, in the tradition of European national theaters. Originating in 1935 with a charter from the U.S. Congress, ANTA continued until 1966 when the National Endowment for the Arts came into being. ANTA was responsible for both the presentation of American theater in the U.S. and abroad.","Although officially formed in 1935, ANTA did not begin actual operation until 1946 due to a variety of factors, including the Great Depression and World War II. During the depression, federal funding was funnelled towards the Works Progress Administration's Federal Theatre Project, another national performing arts program. In addition to these setbacks, the ANTA board, comprised of prominent citizens and business leaders from outside the theater community, could not agree on the goals of ANTA. Eventually, Robert Breen and Robert Porterfield, two men with Army and theater backgrounds, took the reins of ANTA and initiated its revitalization. Porterfield and Breen developed ANTA's \"Foundation Plan,\" with the intention of having ANTA become the foundation for and driving force behind the stimulation of growth of American theater. The plan, successfully undertaken by Breen, Porterfield, and Breen's wife Wilva Davis Breen, called for a National Foundation to make loans and grants, insure theater projects against loss, as well as a National Service Bureau to provide technical assistance for acting companies, as well as a national clearing house for theater information. The plan was adopted by the ANTA Board in 1946.","Under the guidance of Breen, ANTA produced several projects in the U.S. with successful results during the postwar years. From 1946 - 1948, ANTA sponsored a series of plays called the Experimental Theatre. Its goal was to \"present new, interesting plays which would not see production on Broadway due to present high costs.\" Admittedly, the plays were \"not necessarily perfect\" but \"worthy of a trial production in a simplified fashion\" according to an ANTA letter offering subscription to the series, which included high profile playwrights and actors. During the late 1940s and early 1950s ANTA sponsored a number of drama festivals across the U.S., featuring well-known actors. ANTA also featured a televised production of short plays for NBC television. With the intention of promoting theater growth in the U.S. and showcasing new talent, ANTA produced, supported, and promoted theater projects all across the United States.","Internationally, ANTA promoted artistic exchange between the U.S. and Europe, and entertained American troops there. This was initiated with a 1949 tour of William Shakespeare's \"Hamlet\" throughout Europe, produced by and starring Breen in the titular role. This tour famously culminated in a performance at Elsinore Castle in Denmark - the actual setting of the play. Perhaps ANTA's, as well as Breen's, greatest success came with the international tour of George Gershwin's \"Porgy and Bess\" (produced with Blevins Davis), which toured from 1952-1956, visiting 89 cities and 29 countries. The opera's performance in the Soviet Union was considered the first cultural exchange post-World War II between the U.S. and the Soviet Union. ANTA also sponsored the American National Ballet Theatre's tour of Europe in 1950, performing in eighteen cities and eight countries. The tour lasted from August to December of 1950 and played to an audience of over 150,000, and was the first international tour of any American ballet company.","ANTA also produced a number of Broadway plays and musicals out of the formerly named Guild Hall Theatre, renamed the ANTA Theatre in the 1960s and 1970s. ANTA West, which grew out of the Greater Los Angeles Chapter of ANTA in 1957, promoted and facilitated the growth of theater in the Southern California region."],"custodhist_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003ePart of the Robert and Wilva Breen papers was donated to The Ohio State University.\u003c/p\u003e  "],"custodhist_heading_ssm":["Custodial History"],"custodhist_tesim":["Part of the Robert and Wilva Breen papers was donated to The Ohio State University."],"phystech_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThe Special Collections Research Center does not have the equipment necessary to play  obsolete audiovisual material found in the found in the Robert and Wilva Breen papers.

She attended Cornwall Normal School of Ontario and was a teacher in Ontario and Saskatchewan, 1910-1912. She then attended Regina College at Saskatchewan for a year, and was secretary in a law office from 1913-1917. She came to the United States in 1917 and was offered a position as secretary in the Virginia governor's office in 1918. She was executive secretary to four successive governors of Virginia between 1918 and 1933: Westmoreland Davis, E. Lee Trinkle, Harry F. Byrd, and John Garland Pollard. She was known affectionately as \"Miss Mac\" to her many friends.","On 31 July 1933, she married Governor Pollard, whose first wife had died in 1932. After his term in office ended in 1934, the couple moved to Washington, D.C., where he served as Chairman of the Board of Veterans Appeals and she attended law school at George Washington University. Upon John Garland Pollard's death in 1937, she returned to Richmond and attended law school at the University of Richmond. She went back to Washington from 1938 to 1940, to work as secretary to the Assistant Administrator of the United States Housing Authority.","In 1940 Violet McDougall Pollard returned again to Richmond to join the staff of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, which John Garland Pollard had been instrumental in creating. During World War II, the museum's director left to join the Marines, and she served as co-director (in charge of business affairs) with Beatrice von Keller (in charge of art). After the war, she was the museum's associate director until her retirement in 1956. She continued her association with the museum through museum advisory committees and through her position on the board of the Federated Arts Council of Richmond until about 1971.","Long interested in politics and maintaining a wide circle of friends in Virginia political circles from her years on the governor's staff, Violet McDougall Pollard became active in the Democratic Party after becoming a naturalized citizen in 1934. She was a delegate to every national Democratic convention from 1936 to 1968, serving on the platform committee in 1952, 1956, 1960, and 1964. She was elected National Committeewoman for Virginia in 1940, a position she held until 1968. As National Committeewoman, she was deeply involved with Democratic Party activities on the state and local levels as well.","Violet McDougall Pollard was involved with a host of state and civic organizations and causes, including the Recreation Committee of the Advisory Council on the Virginia Economy and the Inter-Agency Committee on Recreation; the Associated Clubs of Virginia for Roadside Development; the Industrial Committee of the Virginia State Chamber of Commerce; the Federated Arts Council of Richmond; the Historic Richmond Foundation; and the Woman's Club of Richmond.","She died at her home in Lancaster, Virginia, on 2 January 1977.","This collection is housed off-site. At least 72 hours advanced notice is required for retrieval.","The papers primarily focus on Violet McDougall Pollard's activities in politics and art. They also cover her many civic activities, and correspondence with family and friends.","Information on her political activities is found in the files she kept on National Politics, documenting her activities as an official in the Democratic Party; her files on State Politics, documenting her involvement with state Party activities and with organizations such as the Democratic Women's Clubs in Virginia; and throughout her correspondence files, in her letters with many prominent Virginia politicians such as Harry F. Byrd and John S. Battle. Virginia Democrats' increasing dissatisfaction with the national party as not representing the views of the Southern states on issues of civil rights and integration from the late 1940s through the 1960s is a major topic. The role of women in public affairs and politics is another frequent topic in Pollard's papers. In addition to direct discussion of women's roles, the papers document women's activities in the Democratic Party in a time when those activities were generally separate from, though complementary to, men's activities.","Pollard's involvement with art and art education in Virginia are reflected in her files on the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, which include a mixture of personal files, copies of official museum records, and literature produced by the museum; her files on the Federated Arts Council of Richmond and other subject files on arts issues; and in correspondence files under the names of artists and of museum staff and supporters.","Before reproducing or quoting from any materials, in whole or in part, permission must be obtained from the Special Collections Research Center, and the holder of the copyright, if not Swem Library.","Special Collections Research Center","Democratic National Committee (U.S.)","Democratic Party (Va.)","Virginia Museum of Fine Arts","Pollard, Violet McDougall, 1889-1977","English"],"collection_title_tesim":["Violet McDougall Pollard papers, 1907/1976, bulk 1933/1968"],"collection_ssim":["Violet McDougall Pollard papers, 1907/1976, bulk 1933/1968"],"level_ssm":["collection"],"level_ssim":["Collection"],"unitid_ssm":["01/Mss. 74 P76","/repositories/2/resources/9026"],"unitid_tesim":["01/Mss. 74 P76","/repositories/2/resources/9026"],"repository_ssm":["College of William and Mary"],"repository_ssim":["College of William and Mary"],"geogname_ssm":["Virginia--Governors","Virginia--Politics and government--20th century"],"geogname_ssim":["Virginia--Governors","Virginia--Politics and government--20th century"],"places_ssim":["Virginia--Governors","Virginia--Politics and government--20th century"],"creator_ssm":["Pollard, Violet McDougall, 1889-1977"],"creator_ssim":["Pollard, Violet McDougall, 1889-1977"],"creator_persname_ssim":["Pollard, Violet McDougall, 1889-1977"],"creator_corpname_ssim":["Special Collections Research Center","Democratic National Committee (U.S.)","Democratic Party (Va.)","Virginia Museum of Fine Arts"],"creators_ssim":["Pollard, Violet McDougall, 1889-1977","Special Collections Research Center","Democratic National Committee (U.S.)","Democratic Party (Va.)","Virginia Museum of Fine Arts"],"access_terms_ssm":["Before reproducing or quoting from any materials, in whole or in part, permission must be obtained from the Special Collections Research Center, and the holder of the copyright, if not Swem Library."],"acqinfo_ssim":["Gift"],"access_subjects_ssim":["Women in politics--United States--History--20th century","Agendas (administrative records)","Correspondence","Financial records","Reports","Technical reports"],"access_subjects_ssm":["Women in politics--United States--History--20th century","Agendas (administrative records)","Correspondence","Financial records","Reports","Technical reports"],"has_online_content_ssim":["false"],"extent_ssm":["46.00 Linear Feet 46 boxes."],"extent_tesim":["46.00 Linear Feet 46 boxes."],"genreform_ssim":["Agendas (administrative records)","Correspondence","Financial records","Reports","Technical reports"],"date_range_isim":[1907,1908,1909,1910,1911,1912,1913,1914,1915,1916,1917,1918,1919,1920,1921,1922,1923,1924,1925,1926,1927,1928,1929,1930,1931,1932,1933,1934,1935,1936,1937,1938,1939,1940,1941,1942,1943,1944,1945,1946,1947,1948,1949,1950,1951,1952,1953,1954,1955,1956,1957,1958,1959,1960,1961,1962,1963,1964,1965,1966,1967,1968,1969,1970,1971,1972,1973,1974,1975,1976],"accessrestrict_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eCollection is open to all researchers.

Parsons (1913-2007) was a manufacturer and inventor of numerical control, which is the application of computer technology to manufacturing processes.","Parsons produced bombs and land mines for U.S. government during World War II. He conceived a machine tool for automatically producing aircraft structural shapes from punch card/tape input (1946); executed a contract to produce the world's first numerical control milling machine (1949) and monitored design and completion of the machine (1950-1952). Parsons also originated an aircraft operation that became the world's largest designer, producer, and overhauler of helicopter rotor blades and built the first all-composite airplane for the Office of Naval Research. He created many other processes involving computer applications to manufacturing and received approximately fifty U.S. patents in the fields of numerical control, marine propellers, foundry systems, and data acquisition manufacturing methods.","Parsons served as president and owner of the Parsons Corporation of Traverse City, Michigan, Detroit, Michigan, and Stockton, California (1954-1968). He was then president and owner of the John T. Parsons Company, Traverse City, Michigan (1968-1986).","Among his numerous awards, Parsons was the first recipient of the Numerical Control Society's Joseph Marie Jacquard Award as the Father of Numerical Control (1968), a recipient of the Society of Manufacturing Engineers Engineering Citation as the person whose brilliant conceptualization of numerical control marked the beginning of the second industrial revolution (1975), recipient of the National Medal of Technology (1985), and recipient of the National Tooling and Machining Association's Distinguished Service Award (1987).","He died in Traverse City, Michigan at the age of 93.","The guide to the John T.
