Description: Throughout Ohio's history, the performing arts in many forms have enriched the lives of its citizens, and Ohioans have worked in the performing arts in numerous capacities. The Ohio State University Libraries' collections document many professionals in the performing arts, native-born or with strong Ohio connections. In celebration of the Bicentennial of the State of Ohio, this exhibition honored one Ohioan, Elsie Janis—child actor, vaudevillian, stage and film performer, author, director, poet, song-writer—to represent the many performing artists with Ohio ties. This online exhibition is an extension of "Some Sort of Somebody": Ohioan Elsie Janis on the Stage and in the Trenches. Drawn primarily from the Elsie Janis Collection of the Laura M. Mueller British and American Theatre and Film Collections, the exhibition was shown in the Philip Sills Exhibit Hall of the William Oxley Thompson Memorial Library, from January 6 to April 14, 2003. The contents are drawn from collections of The Ohio State University Libraries' Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee Theatre Research Institute and Cartoon Research Library.
