{"product_id":"9781442637832","title":"Creative Canada: A Biographical Dictionary of Twentieth-century Creative and Performing Artists (Volume 1)","description":"\u003cp\u003eDid he ever play Hamlet? Has she worked in television? What was the   title of his first novel? Under whom did she study? How many children has he? Answers to   such questions about contemporary Canadian artists have often been difficult, even   impossible, to find. This series has been created to provide the answers; it covers   creative and performing artists who have contributed as individuals to the culture of   Canada in the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach volume in the series presents a cross-section   of many different kinds of artists: authors of imaginative works, artists and sculptors,   musicians (performers, composers, conductors, and directors), and performing artists in   ballet, modern dance, radio, theatre, television, and motion pictures; directors,   designers, and producers in theatre, cinema, radio, television, and the dance;   choreographers and, for cinema, cartoonists and animators. Within each category of art is   included a selection of those who have achieved national and international recognition;   those who have been recognized locally, and some, now deceased, who markedly influenced   their contemporaries locally, nationally, or internationally. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is not a   critical compilation; rather it is an objective and factual reference work for those   interested in contemporary Canadian culture. Information was collected by painstaking   research in a wide variety of sources, and wherever possible it has been verified by the   artist to make each entry as accurate and comprehensive as possible. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47128154865904,"sku":"9781442637832","price":58.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781442637832_p0.jpg?v=1763814332","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781442637832","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
