The Life and Times of Bill Williamson
Bill Williamson definitely had a rough start at life. His mother went through many complications while pregnant with him, and he spent much time in the hospital as a child for his health issues, including being seriously hearing impaired. As a partially deaf child, Bill received a lot of ridicule for his hearing impairment, and thus many children—and even teachers—made fun of him. But even though he struggled, he was able to eventually succeed in his studies—and even discovered he had a passion for photography. In The Life and Times of Bill Williamson, Bill discusses his personal life experiences including being raised in a religious home—as well as the political and historical events of his growing up years—as an honest and accurate depiction of his extraordinary tale. About the Author Bill Williamson currently lives in Urbandale, Iowa.

Stealing the Show
Stealing the Show is a study of African American actors in Hollywood during the 1930s, a decade that saw the consolidation of stardom as a potent cultural and industrial force. Petty focuses on five performers whose Hollywood film careers flourished during this period—Louise Beavers, Fredi Washington, Lincoln “Stepin Fetchit” Perry, Bill “Bojangles” Robinson, and Hattie McDaniel—to reveal the “problematic stardom” and the enduring, interdependent patterns of performance and spectatorship for performers and audiences of color. She maps how these actors—though regularly cast in stereotyped and marginalized roles—employed various strategies of cinematic and extracinematic performance to negotiate their complex positions in Hollywood and to ultimately “steal the show.” Drawing on a variety of source materials, Petty explores these stars’ reception among Black audiences and theorizes African American viewership in the early twentieth century. Her book is an important and welcome contribution to the literature on the movies.

Then silence, the blue-white light faded to gray, then blackness, nothing, no sound, was he even breathing? Was this death? ]. Or his return, [A feeling of panic! A brilliant bluish-white light! Both feet jammed onto the brake pedal!]. He reappears as a 69-year-old man, with the physical appearance and the abilities...
