Printed biographical form with typed entries by the actor, detailing date and place of birth, education and professional training, and stage and screen experience. Arny Freeman (1908-1986) played small roles in several feature films, but was seen more often on TV and on Broadway stages. His stage credits commenced with a revival of A Streetcar Named Desire (1950), and included such works as Tovarich, Cactus Flower and The Sunshine Boys. His TV debut was on Captain Video (1949), and continued with multiple appearances on The Naked City, The Untouchables and Barney Miller until the year before his death. Theatre World, founded in 1945 by Daniel Blum, is America's oldest annual record of Broadway, Off-Broadway and regional theatre, referenced by industry professionals, historians, students and theatre fans worldwide. Until 1998, when a separate nonprofit corporation was established, Theatre World's editorial staff bestowed the prestigious Theatre World Awards for outstanding Broadway and Off-Broadway debuts. Screen World (from 1950) and Dance World (from 1966), administered from the same office, furnished comprehensive information on those entertainment genres. John A. Willis (1916-2010), active in Theatre World from the beginning, became its chief editor in 1965, holding that position until 2008. Willis is regarded as one of the foremost theatre and film historians of the 20th century. While producing (and presenting) the annual Theatre World Awards, Willis also served on the nominating committee for the Tony Awards. Theatre World, which received its own Tony for Excellence in Theatre in 2001, continues under chief editor Ben Hodges. Normal mailing folds. Lightly toned at edges. Corners slightly creased.
