# Peter Crawley (headmaster)

**Peter Crawley** (born 16 October 1953) is the Australian former headmaster of Trinity Grammar School, Victoria, Knox Grammar School and St Hilda's School. He has authored and co-authored a number books on educational issues. In 2023 he was appointed as a member of the college council at his old school Newington College. Prior to his appointment to Newington council he served as chairman of the council of The Hills Grammar School.

## Early life

Crawley was born in Adelaide, South Australia, the son of James and Elizabeth Crawley and attended Newington College (1965–1971). He received a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) degree and a Diploma of Education from Flinders University, and a Master of Educational Administration degree from the University of New England. He also has a GradCert in theology, he is a Fellow of the Australian College of Educational Leadership (vic), and was awarded an honorary Doctorate by Griffith University in 2016.

## Teaching career

His teaching career began in 1977 at Augusta Park High School in South Australia. He was assistant senior resident master (1980 to 1982) and head of history (1988 to 1989) at Prince Alfred College, Adelaide and during this time spent a year at Felsted School in Essex, England. He was deputy principal of Ballarat and Clarendon College from 1990 until 1992. In 1993 he became headmaster of Trinity Grammar School, Victoria. While at Trinity he was interviewed by *The Sunday Age* in an article on corporal punishment and discussed the changes in attitudes in independent boys schools since the 1960s, having experienced them first-hand as a student and teacher.

During Crawley's time at Trinity, the school became a world leader in the use of computers in schools, mandating each student have a laptop. He approached Microsoft about using their Office software package for his students, instead of the then-standard schools package. A year later, Microsoft had released Office to schools worldwide and made a film about Trinity's ideas for integrating technology with education. Bill Gates sent Crawley a personal letter thanking him for his ideas on the use of laptops in schools. Crawley was also invited to Japan to address the board of Toshiba about the use of technology in schools.

In 1999 Crawley moved to Sydney as head of Knox Grammar School. As Knox's sixth headmaster, he is credited for "bringing the School into the 21st century with an innovative program of technology and computer-based learning." He left to Knox to become managing director of an educational firm, Creative School Management. In 2006 Crawley moved to the Gold Coast to become principal of St Hilda's School, their first male head of school. During his time at St Hilda's they became one of the first schools in the world to adopt the iPad as a teaching and learning device. He retired from St Hilda's at the end of 2016. In October 2019 he was appointed the interim principal of the Glennie School in Toowoomba, Queensland. In 2021 he spent 6 months as the interim Principal of Arden Anglican School, Sydney.

Crawley was awarded an honorary doctorate for services to education from Griffith University. The award specifically mentioned his contribution to the use of technology in education and his contribution to the education of girls. Griffith described him as "one of the pioneers of using computers and tablets in the classroom".

## Publications

He has published a book on School Boards and another on the role of Heads of Department. With Philip Cummins and Eric Bernard, Crawley has published the following educational books;

* *Managing Risk in Your School*, Woollahra, NSW: Circle, 2011
* *Staff Evaluation and Goal-Setting*, Crows Nest, NSW: Circle, 2010

# Peter H. Rossi

**Peter Henry Rossi** (December 27, 1921 – October 7, 2006) was a prominent sociologist best known for his research on the origin of homelessness, and documenting the changing face of American homelessness in the 1980s. Rossi was also known for his work devising ways to evaluate federally funded initiatives in education, health services, crime control, and housing. He influentially applied his sociological expertise to affect related policy-making and funding agencies. At his death, he was the Stuart A. Rice professor emeritus of Sociology and the director emeritus of the Social and Demographic Research Institute (SADRI) at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.

## Biography

Rossi was born December 27, 1921, in Corona, Queens, New York City, New York, to Italian immigrant parents. He graduated from the City College of New York with a degree in sociology in 1943. After graduating, he intended on going into social work; however, he enlisted in the Army in 1943, and served in the 100th Infantry Division in Europe during World War II.

After the war, Rossi used the G.I. Bill to continue his education at Columbia University. While at Columbia, Rossi met his wife, Alice Schaerr. Alice also became an eminent sociologist and in 1966, was one of the founders of the National Organization for Women (NOW). During his time at Columbia, Rossi was influenced and mentored by two professors and notable social researchers, Robert K. Merton and Paul F. Lazarsfeld. Rossi's doctoral dissertation was entitled "The Application of Latent Structure Analysis to the Study of Social Stratification" and he earned his doctorate in sociology in 1951.

After earning his doctorate, Rossi went into academia joining the faculty at Harvard University for a four-year stint as a research associate and assistant professor. In 1955 he joined the University of Chicago's Department of Sociology faculty, where he stayed for 12 years, first as an assistant professor then full professor. He also was director of the National Opinion Research Center in Hyde Park for seven years, helping to secure the funds to construct a new building.

While at the University of Chicago, Rossi served on the doctoral committee for Chicago priest and writer Andrew Greeley. The two collaborated on a 1962 study of the Catholic school system which was published as "The Education of Catholic Americans", and was notable as the first systematic study of Catholic schools. Rossi was the editor of the *American Journal of Sociology* from 1958 to 1961, and also served as editor of the Social Science Research journal, where he was senior advisory editor at the time of his death.

Due to disagreements, with then University of Chicago President Edward Levi, over issues including funding of the research center, Rossi left the University of Chicago. After leaving Chicago, Rossi assumed the chair of the Department of Social Relations at Johns Hopkins University, where he also served as Director of Research of the Social and Demographic Research Institute at the University of Massachusetts.

While at Johns Hopkins University, Rossi was involved in several important War on Poverty era program evaluations. One such evaluation was assisting the President's Commission on Civil Disorders with understanding the causes of the urban unrest following the 1967 race riots. Out of his work with the President's Commission on Civil Disorders grew a comprehensive study of how cities in America responded to the riots of the late 1960s in his work "Roots of Urban Discontent: Public Policy, Municipal Institutions and the Ghetto".

In 1974, Rossi joined the sociology faculty at the University of Massachusetts, where he stayed until his retirement in the early 1990s. While at the University of Massachusetts, Rossi served as the 71st president of the American Sociological Association from 1979 to 1980.

During his career, Rossi authored over 40 books and 200 scholarly journal articles. He was highly regarded, widely recognized, and sought after for his work on evaluating social programs. Included in this work are his controversial studies of the homeless problem in America. The work for which he is best known is “Down and Out in America: The Origins of Homelessness” (University of Chicago, 1989). In this research, he chronicled the shift in the nation's homeless population from the older white male denizens of post-World War II skid rows to a younger, larger group that included many more women, children and minorities. In conducting this research he made the first systematic attempts to count the homeless, ultimately finding dramatically smaller numbers than claimed by advocates for the homeless. He found that homelessness is largely a temporary rather than permanent problem and, therefore, that short infusions of aid could make a large difference.

His work focused on federal food programs was documented in his book *Feeding the Poor: Assessing Federal Food Programs*. His work on assessing the severity of crimes via surveys of the American public (Public Opinion on Sentencing Federal Criminals and Just Punishments: Sentencing Guidelines and Public Opinion Compared) has influenced the U.S. Sentencing Commission. His efforts on evaluating public welfare and anti-crime programs was highly influential and was frequently cited by Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan and other policy makers.

Rossi died October 7, 2006, in Amherst, Massachusetts.

## Five-Domain Evaluation Model

In the late 1970s, Peter Rossi with the help of his colleagues Mark W. Lipsey & Howard E Freeman developed an evaluation model called the Five-Domain Evaluation Model. In this model, each evaluation should be custom-made to fit resources, local needs, and the type of program. This includes custom-fitting the evaluation questions, methods and procedures, and the nature of the evaluator-stakeholder relationship. In the eyes of Rossi, the evaluation questions were the core while the rest of the evaluation evolves around it.

The Five-Domain Evaluation Model highlights five primary evaluation domains:

1. Needs assessment of the program
2. Design of the program
3. Program implementation and service delivery assessment
4. Program impact or outcomes assessment
5. Program efficiency assessment

title: Petawawa River

abstract: The Petawawa River is a river in the Saint Lawrence River drainage basin in Nipissing District and Renfrew County in eastern and northeastern Ontario, Canada. The river flows from Algonquin Provincial Park to the Ottawa River at the town of Petawawa, and is only one of two major tributaries of the Ottawa River to flow completely freely. The river's name comes from the Algonquian for "where one hears a noise like this", which refers to its many rapids.

# Petawawa River

The **Petawawa River** is a river in the Saint Lawrence River drainage basin in Nipissing District and Renfrew County in eastern and northeastern Ontario, Canada. The river flows from Algonquin Provincial Park to the Ottawa River at the town of Petawawa, and is only one of two major tributaries of the Ottawa River to flow completely freely (the other being the Dumoine River). The river's name comes from the Algonquian for "where one hears a noise like this", which refers to its many rapids.

## Course

The river starts at Ralph Bice Lake (formerly Butt Lake) in northern Algonquin Provincial Park in the geographic township of Butt in the Unorganized South Part of Nipissing District. It flows south to Daisy Lake then east to Big Trout Lake. The river heads north out the lake over Big Trout Lake Dam, takes in the left tributary Tim River, flows over the Portal Rapids, Cedar Rapids, Snowshoe Rapids, Catfish Rapids, and Stacks Rapids to reach Cedar Lake, the location of the community of Brent, where it takes in the left tributary Nipissing River. The river exits the lake over a dam, heads through the Devil's Chute, reaches Radiant Lake, where it takes in the left tributary North River and right tributary Little Madawaska River, and passes through the Squirrel Rapids, Big Sawyer Rapids, Battery Rapids Cascade Rapids and White Horse Rapids, and takes in the right tributary Crow River. The river then continues through a series of rapids including the Devil's Cellar Rapids, passes the Algonquin Radio Observatory, and reaches Lake Travers. The Petawawa River enters a canyon and passes through numerous rapids including the Big Thompson Rapids, Little Thompson Rapids, Grillade Rapids, Crooked Chute, Rollway Rapids, The Natch, Schooner Rapids, Five Mile Rapids to arrive at Whitson Lake adjacent to the Petawawa Hills. It leaves Algonquin Provincial Park and enters the municipality of Laurentian Hills in Renfrew County, continues southeast past CFB Petawawa, passes through the Crooked Rapids, Race Horse Rapids, White Horse Rapids and Halfmile Rapids, and reaches Lac du Bois Dur, where it takes in the right tributary Barron River. The river enters the town of Petawawa, heads under Ontario Highway 17, through the Big Eddy Rapids, under the Canadian Pacific Railway main line, and empties into Black Bay on the Ottawa River.

The river is 187 kilometres (116 mi) in length and drains an area of 4,200 square kilometres (1,600 sq mi), with a mean discharge of 45 cubic metres (1,589 cu ft) per second.

## Economy

From the late 19th century until the 1960s, the river was used for log driving of the timber from the forested areas surrounding the river. The river is visited by canoeing and kayaking enthusiasts - both for its white water rapids and its views.

In 2009, based on subsidized power-generation rates in the Ontario Green Energy Act's Feed-in-Tariff (FIT) program, there were plans to build a 5.3 MW hydro-electric generating station at Big Eddy Rapids, about 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) upstream from the river's mouth. The project involved building a concrete and boulder weir that would direct a portion of the water to a new 300 metres (980 ft) long intake channel and powerhouse, as well as a fish ladder. It was scheduled to be operational by 2015, but the project raised opposition from the local communities, paddlers, and environmental groups. Both Big Eddy Rapids and Half Mile Rapids would have been affected.

The project was among nineteen FIT hydro projects on ten rivers that were cancelled in 2015 after their FIT contracts were terminated following the opposition by groups like the Ontario Rivers Alliance.

# Peter Donaldson (economist)

**Peter Donaldson** (27 October 1934 – 6 September 2002) was a British economist, academic, author, and radio and television broadcaster.

## Academic career

Born in Eccles, Lancashire, Donaldson's family moved to Gillingham, Kent, when he was only 18 months old. Following education at the local grammar school he gained a scholarship to read philosophy, politics and economics at Balliol College, Oxford. In 1957 he became a junior lecturer at the University of Leeds, before moving to the University of Leicester in 1960. In 1964 he took up a position at Osmania University in Hyderabad, India, where he stayed until 1967, except for a six-month stint back in the United Kingdom at Ruskin College in 1965. On completing his term in Hyderabad he returned to Ruskin College full-time and remained on staff there until his retirement in the early 1990s.

## Publishing and broadcasting career

During the course of his early academic career Donaldson became increasingly aware of the limited scope, poor standard, and inaccessibility of economics teaching at school and undergraduate level. In order to provide better teaching material, during his time at Leicester University he began to write what would, in 1965, be published as his first book: *Guide to the British Economy*. It was this work – which was to be republished in three further editions in 1967, 1971 and 1976 – that established his reputation as a populariser of economics. Soon after its publication the BBC approached Donaldson, and with the corporation he devised and presented *Managing the Economy* on BBC Radio 4 during the latter part of the 1960s.

Donaldson's time in India had stirred an interest in development economics, and this was reflected in his follow-up program *Affluence and Inequality* which aired during the early 1970s, also on Radio 4. The series was accompanied by a book, *Worlds Apart*, which was based on the program and dealt with similar subject matter. A number of further educational and popular books appeared during the late 1970s and early 1980s, before Donaldson returned to broadcasting with Yorkshire Television-produced programs for ITV Schools and the newly launched Channel 4 television station. His shows *10 x Economics* and *A Question of Economics* were popular with both the general public and teachers, and were widely used in economics classrooms. Both were accompanied by books of the same name.

# Pete Brown (jazz musician)

**James Ostend** "**Pete**" **Brown** (November 9, 1906 – September 20, 1963) was an American jazz alto saxophonist and bandleader.

## Career

Brown learned to play piano, trumpet, and saxophone while young. He played in New York City with Bernie Robinson's orchestra in 1928, and played from 1928 to 1934 with Charlie Skeete.

In 1937, he worked in the band of John Kirby; for several years in the 1930s he worked with Frankie Newton, who was also a member of Kirby's band. Brown and Newton recorded often. In addition to recording under his own name, Brown also recorded with Willie "The Lion" Smith, Jimmie Noone, Buster Bailey, Leonard Feather, Joe Marsala, and Maxine Sullivan in the 1930s.

He worked on 52nd Street in New York in the 1940s, both as a sideman (with Slim Gaillard, among others). As a bandleader, he was in Allen Eager's 52nd Street All-Stars in 1946.

In the 1950s, Brown's health began to fail, and he receded from full-time performance. He played with Joe Wilder (1954), Big Joe Turner (1956), Sammy Price, and Champion Jack Dupree, and appeared at the 1957 Newport Jazz Festival with Coleman Hawkins and Roy Eldridge. His last appearance was in 1960 with Dizzy Gillespie.

# Pete Brown

**Peter Ronald Brown** (25 December 1940 – 19 May 2023) was an English performance poet, lyricist, and singer best known for his collaborations with Cream and Jack Bruce. Brown formed the bands Pete Brown & His Battered Ornaments and Pete Brown & Piblokto! and worked with Graham Bond and Phil Ryan. Brown also wrote film scripts and formed a film production company.

## Early life, poetry and music

Brown was born in Ashtead, Surrey, England. Before his involvement with music, he was a poet, having his first poem published in the U.S. magazine *Evergreen Review* when he was 14 years old.

Brown became part of the poetry scene in Liverpool during the 1960s, and in 1964 was the first poet to perform at Morden Tower in Newcastle. He became a significant advocate of British Beat Poetry, and in partnership with Michael Horovitz wrote poetry which they recited together as part of the 1965 event at the Royal Albert Hall.

Combining his poetry with music, Brown began performing at live events with musicians including the "New Departures" group with Horovitz, and toured with folk guitarist Davey Graham. The First Real Poetry Band was formed by Brown with John McLaughlin (guitar), Binky McKenzie (bass), Laurie Allan (drums) and Pete Bailey (percussion).

## Cream

The First Real Poetry Band brought Brown to the attention of the band Cream. Originally, he was seen as a writing partner for drummer Ginger Baker, but the group quickly discovered that he worked better with bassist Jack Bruce. Of the situation, Bruce later remarked: "Ginger and Pete were at my flat trying to work on a song but it wasn't happening. My wife Janet then got with Ginger and they wrote 'Sweet Wine' while I started working with Pete."

Together, Brown and Bruce wrote many of Cream's songs, including the hits "I Feel Free", "White Room" and "SWLABR"; Brown, Bruce and Clapton also wrote "Sunshine of Your Love".

After the break-up of Cream, Bruce and Brown continued to write songs together. Brown wrote the lyrics for most of Bruce's solo albums.

## Solo career

Brown formed Pete Brown and His Battered Ornaments in 1968, and in 1969 the band recorded two albums: *A Meal You Can Shake Hands With in the Dark* and *Mantlepiece*, with a line-up including Pete Bailey (percussion), Charlie Hart (keyboards), Dick Heckstall-Smith (sax), George Kahn (sax), Roger Potter (bass), Chris Spedding (guitar) and Rob Tait (drums). Brown was asked to leave the band, the day before they were due to support the Rolling Stones at Hyde Park. His vocals were subsequently removed from *Mantlepiece* and re-recorded by Chris Spedding, and the band was renamed The Battered Ornaments.

"Piblokto!" was formed after Brown's dismissal from the Battered Ornaments, and was active between 1969 and 1971. The original Piblokto! members were; Brown on vocals, Laurie Allan on drums, Jim Mullen on guitar, Roger Bunn on bass and Dave Thompson on organ. Most of their releases were for Harvest Records.

Allan left to join The Battered Ornaments and was replaced by their drummer Rob Tait. They released their first single "Living Life Backwards" / "High Flying Electric Bird" (the A-side later covered by Jeff Beck), followed by the album *Things May Come and Things May Go but the Art School Dance Goes on Forever* (1970). Bunn was replaced by Steve Glover for their second single, "Can't Get Off The Planet" / "Broken Magic" and the LP *Thousands on a Raft* (1970).

Mullen, Thompson and Tait left, so Brown and Glover were joined by Phil Ryan on keyboards, John "Pugwash" Weathers on drums (both formerly from The Eyes of Blue) and Brian Breeze on guitar. This line-up only recorded one single, "Flying Hero Sandwich"/"My Last Band". Weathers and Breeze both departed, to be replaced by guitarist Taff Williams (also formerly in The Eyes of Blue) and drummer Ed Spevock, before finally disbanding in Autumn 1971, and Brown went on to work with Graham Bond. Both albums, all three singles and several bonus tracks were reissued on the double album CD BGOCD522 in 2001.

The band's name was taken from the Inuit word for "Arctic Hysteria", Piblokto, with symptoms including hysteria (screaming, uncontrolled wild behaviour), depression and echolalia (senseless repetition of words).

## Later career

After Piblokto!, Brown started to work with Graham Bond, with input from Jack Bruce and Bond's wife, Diane Stewart. In 1972 they recorded one album, *Two Heads Are Better Than One*, a single, "Lost Tribe", and much of the soundtrack to the short experimental documentary film *Maltamour*, before Bond left to form Magus in 1973.

Brown then formed Brown and Friends, and Flying Tigers, though neither group got beyond producing demos. In 1973, he recorded an album of his early poems, *The Not Forgotten Association*, before recording with members of Back to the Front, including an album, *Party in The Rain*, which was recorded in 1976 but not released until 1982.

On the rise of punk, he left the music scene in 1977 and wrote film scripts, including that for *Felix the Cat: The Movie*. He then wrote a film score for a BBC TV film, with Phil Ryan, who had been in a late Piblokto! line-up. They collaborated for 12 years, and Brown formed his own label, Interoceter, which issued two Pete Brown/Phil Ryan albums: *Ardours of the Lost Rake* and *Coals to Jerusalem*. They began touring in 1993, and a compilation of the two albums was issued on CD as *The Land That Cream Forgot* (Vintage, VIN 8031-2). In the 1990s, Brown also appeared with The Interoceters, performing his earlier material.

A new Brown/Ryan album *Road of Cobras*, including Maggie Bell, Arthur Brown, Mick Taylor and Jim Mullen, was released in 2010.

In 2004, he formed Brown Waters, a film production company, with Mark A. J. Waters and Miran Hawke.

In 2010, Brown published his autobiography, *White Rooms & Imaginary Westerns: On the Road With Ginsberg, Writing for Clapton and Cream — An Anarchic Odyssey* (JR Books, London), which is in the process of being adapted as a documentary.

In 2017, Brown partnered with Gary Brooker writing lyrics for the songs on Procol Harum's final album, *Novum*.

title: Peter Luginbill

abstract: Peter Luginbill was a Swiss-American politician, farmer, and carpenter. Luginbill was one of the first settlers and founders of Berne, Indiana.

text:
# Peter Luginbill

**Peter Luginbill** (February 1, 1818 – October 18, 1886) (early spelling of **Luginbuhl**) was a Swiss-American politician, farmer, and carpenter. Luginbill was one of the first settlers and founders of Berne, Indiana.

## Biography

Luginbill was born in a Swiss Settlement in Florimont (Blumenbergewald), Franche-Comté in 1818. In 1824, Luginbill and his family (who were Swiss Mennonites) fled from the Emmenthal to the Jura and to Alsace-Lorraine because of religious persecution. During the French occupation, Luginbill's family had retained his Swiss citizenship by concealing family records. Luginbill spoke both French and Swiss German.

Luginbill and his family emigrated to the United States and settled near Orrville, Ohio. Later, in September 1847, they moved to the area that would become Berne, where they were early settlers and where Peter was a founder. The community was named after the capital of Switzerland. As a city father, Luginbill often performed the functions of teacher, preacher and judge. He was also an early town trustee and treasurer.

A skilled carpenter, Luginbill (as the name had come to be spelled) purchased 80 acres of land and built a log barn and a frame farmhouse in 1855. The home was insulated by using straw and mud between the logs. Luginbill also built the first Swiss Mennonite Church in Indiana during the same year.

## Family

Luginbill was the eldest son of Johannes Luginbuhl and Anna Bosiger. Johannes lived from 1778–1838 and his wife from 1777–1838. Luginbill married Barbara Steiner on December 1, 1838. She died in 1897. They had ten children.

## Death and legacy

Luginbill died in 1886. Luginbill and his wife are buried at Mennonite Reformed Evangelical Cemetery near Berne. Luginbill's farmhouse was donated to the Swiss Heritage Museum and moved to the property in 1987. The Luginbill House and heirloom garden is now available for public tours, and receives tourists from around the country and world on Swiss Days.

In 2010, Silvertowne of Winchester, Indiana, minted one-ounce commemorative silver coins honoring the Luginbill family and their contributions to Indiana.

The Luginbill family records and lineage are maintained by the Berne Public Library.

Marre's most recent completed work is a profile of Count Basie in 2019. In 2018, he directed Amy Winehouse: Back to Black, first shown on BBC4. In his review for The Arts Desk, Mark Kidel wrote of the film: "Jeremy Marre has consistently been making first-class music documentaries since the 1970’s: he knows how to tell a story, and allows enough space for the music to speak for itself." Before that, Marre made Marc Bolan, "Cosmic Dancer", for BBC to mark the 40th anniversary of the singer's death. The film is described by the Sunday Times as "fascinatingly ambiguous" and premiered in the UK on Friday 15 September 2017.

Marre's previous film was the feature-length documentary, "The Heart of Country" a history of the Nashville music scene. In 2013, he produced and directed "Key to the Highway", telling the story of Blues legend Big Bill Broonzy with interviews from Keith Richards, Ray Davies and Pete Seeger.

"Youssou N'Dour: Voice of Africa" was first shown on BBC Four on Friday 30 August 2013. Before that, "Otis Redding: Soul Ambassador" was the first documentary on the life of the soul singer Otis Redding.

Marre also made "Angels and Demons: the Carlos Santana Story", a feature-length biography based around an intimate interview with Santana.

In 2011 he was responsible for the BBC's acclaimed *Reggae Britannia*, a history of reggae music in the UK, premiered in February 2011. The film won the UNESCO Award for best feature documentary at the Jamaica Reggae Festival 2011, jointly with *Fire in Babylon*.

On the death of Malcolm McLaren in 2010, Marre's tribute show was broadcast on BBC2. He has also produced the series *Latin Music USA*, a transatlantic co-production about the history of Latin American music and its influence on popular music in general.

Other highlights of his work in the last decade include directing a documentary on the American prison gang The Aryan Brotherhood; acting as series producer of the BBC Music series *Soul Britannia* examining the history and influence of soul music in Britain; writing and directing *Marvin Gaye: What's Going On?*, a biography for the PBS series *American Masters* and BBC; and *The Real Phil Spector*, a one-hour biography of the reclusive music producer recently found guilty of murder, for Channel 4.

Previously, Marre has worked with James Brown on *Soul Survivor – The James Brown Story*, a 90-minute biography featuring extended interviews, rehearsal, and performance by James Brown, also featuring Little Richard, Chuck D and Dan Aykroyd.

His award-winning documentary *Ladyboys*, was shown on Channel 4 and abroad. His 90-minute movie *Rebel Music* about the life of Bob Marley earned him a Grammy Award nomination (Bob Marley's first), as well as winning the CINE Golden Eagle prize.

Earlier work included the BAFTA nominated (2002) opening one-hour film for the BBC series *Walk on By*; an eight-hour Channel 4 series *Chasing Rainbows*, a part-dramatised story of British popular music and the 3-part series *Nature of Music* (Channel 4) about ritual and music around the world; *Forbidden Image*, with an original score by Ravi Shankar, for ITV.

Marre collaborated with Derek Bailey on the four-part Channel 4 series about musical improvisation around the world, *On the Edge*.

He has made several of the BBC series *Classic Albums*, worked with Gerald Durrell on a 12-part series entitled *Ourselves and Other Animals*, and written, produced and directed programmes for the South Bank Show which won the Milan Grand Prix and Golden Harp awards.

*Beats of the Heart* was his 14-hour series on world music that was networked several times on British television, accompanied by his book of the same name and 14 videos/DVDs. The films include *Roots, Rock, Reggae* (Jamaican music) and *Rhythm of Resistance* on black music as resistance to apartheid in South Africa. His work for cinema includes *Way of the Sword* and *Soul of the Samurai*.

# Jean Vaughan Gilbert

**Jean Vaughan Gilbert** (November 11, 1904 – December 2, 1975) was an American attorney, and the first woman to be appointed Honolulu City-County Attorney. She set a record at the University of Southern California Law for the highest academic scores at that date. At the time she became an attorney in Hawaii, women were not allowed to serve on a jury, and women lawyers could not use the abbreviation "Esq." after their names.

## Background

She was born November 11, 1904, in Texarkana, Texas, to attorney Horace Worth Vaughan and Pearl Lockett Vaughan, joining older sister Aileen and brother Robert Louis. After her birth, her father was elected to the Texas State Senate, and subsequently to the United States House of Representatives. In 1914, her brother graduated from the United States Naval Academy, and was assigned to the USS *California*. Sister Aileen married in Texas. When her father was appointed assistant district attorney for the US District Court for Hawaii in 1915, Gilbert was the only child still living in their home. Maternal grandmother Ellen Rand Lockett also moved to the territory with them. Within a few months, her father was elevated to District Attorney for the court. When Sanford B. Dole retired as judge of the federal court in 1916, President Woodrow Wilson appointed Vaughan to fill the position.

In March 1920, US Navy Lt. Robert Louis Vaughan died in an airplane crash in Panama. Judge Vaughan brought his son's widow and children to live in Hawaii. When his judicial term expired May 2, 1922, he still had not emotionally recovered from the loss of his son. His health had been in a steadily weakening state, resulting in a stroke. On November 10, he committed suicide. After his death, the family was financially dependent on renting out rooms in their private home.

## Education and early career

Gilbert attended the University of Texas, followed by the University of Southern California Law, graduating Cum Laude Order of California in 1930, while setting a record for the highest academic scores. Following her passing of the California bar exam, she was admitted to practice before the U. S. District Court in Hawaii. After she passed the Hawaii exam, she was admitted to the Hawaii Bar on April 8, 1931. At that time, the "Esq." commonly used as a title for male lawyers, was not allowed to be used by women lawyers in Hawaii, and women were not allowed to serve on jury duty in the territory. She was not the first woman admitted to the bar in Hawaii, but the media noted that she was the "first blonde woman" to do so, and was a cook who "knows her pots and pans".

She set up practice as a member of the law firm of Kemp and Stainbeck. When partner Ingram Stainback was named U. S. Attorney in 1934, he brought her on board as his assistant attorney. Together, they acted as counsel for the government in matters of water and land rights.

## Marriage and return to Hawaii

Her career was put on hold for several years after her October 7, 1935, marriage to US Navy captain Melbourne Newcomb Gilbert, who was stationed in Vallejo, California. Upon the couple's 1940 return to Hawaii, she was once again appointed Assistant U. S. District Attorney, this time by acting U. S. District Attorney Angus M. Taylor. After the attack on Pearl Harbor, the territory was placed under martial law by territorial governor Joseph Poindexter, approved by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The writ of habeas corpus was suspended. One of the cases she worked on was that of Honolulu doctor of naturopathy Hans Zimmerman, who challenged his arrest and detention with no charges filed against him.

Her former boss Ingram Stainback was appointed territorial governor on August 24, 1942, and Gilbert was appointed City-County Deputy Attorney by City-County Attorney Cable A. Wirtz. In 1944, Wirtz became Circuit Judge, and with unanimous approval from the county board of supervisors, Honolulu mayor Lester Petrie appointed Gilbert the City-County Attorney, the first woman to hold that position. She was a steadfast advocate for the city and county. One of her last cases put her at odds with the supervisors, who had followed territorial legislation and allocated funds for back pay to litigant county employee Llewelyn H. L. Hart, covering the period he had been suspended pending the outcome of legal action. She argued in 1946 that the county was not obligated to compensate for the withheld wages, and should not reimburse Hart. The backlash to her legal opinion was so intense that supervisor Nicholas T. Teves threatened to introduce a motion to have her fired. She held firm to her position, and eventually took a sabbatical to California. When Petrie's term ended January 2, 1947, she and others in his cabinet resigned.

## Later life and legacy

After resigning her position with the city and county, she went into private practice, and until 1967 contracted her services to the Honolulu Board of Water Supply.

Although physically impaired for the last 15 years of her life, she continued to be active. She died December 2, 1975, and was buried at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific. Her husband survived her.

She played a key role in the legal career of Thomas Shoichi Ogata who went on to become a justice of the Supreme Court of Hawaii. Previously denied admittance to the Hawaii Bar in 1942, for a cheating incident during the bar exam, he nevertheless became her law clerk. Based on her personal recommendation, he was admitted to the Hawaii Bar in 1945, and she appointed him as Deputy City-County Attorney.
