Description de l'ouvrage:
Each entry includes brief biographical and career data for the performer, with birthplace and year of birth and death. An overview of commercially published books and articles about or written by the performer is given next. The entry then provides a list of archival materials, including clipping files, photographs and stills, letters, scrapbooks and other memorabilia.
