Patronizing the Public: American Philanthropy's Transformation of
Culture, Communication, and the Humanities is the first detailed
and comprehensive examination of how American philanthropic
foundations have shaped numerous fields, including dance, drama,
education, film, film-music, folklore, journalism, local history,
museums, radio, television, as well as the performing arts and the
humanities in general. Drawing on an impressive range of archival
and secondary sources, the chapters in the volume give particular
attention to the period from the late 1920s to the late 1970s, a
crucial time for the development of philanthropic practice. To this
end, it examines how patterns and directions of funding have been
based on complex negotiations involving philanthropic family
members, elite networks, foundation trustees and officers, cultural
workers, academics, state officials, corporate interests, and the
general public. By addressing both the contours of philanthropic
power as well as the processes through which that power has been
enacted, it is hoped that this collection will reinforce and
amplify the critical study of philanthropy's history.
