The Greenes were representative of a class of journeymen actors,
who received but little attention by chroniclers of early
nineteenth-century theatre history. Along with hundreds of other
craftsmen of their day, they experienced frequent moments of
tribulation and rare occasions of triumph-respected artists who
bore their daily vicissitudes as an expected part of the theatrical
life. They traveled from place to place applying their craft,
appearing with many of the major performers of the era. Mrs.
Greene's personal memoirs were originally serialized in The New
York Clipper in the 1860s by Charles Durang, who supplied
additional material from his experiences as an actor, promoter, and
dancing master. The original publication has now been greatly
expanded by William L. Slout. Contains a helpful Chronology,
comprehensive Notes, and a detailed Bibliography, and Index.
