Our Goal Our History Honorees Exhibit ... Bibliography E-mail Us Home Ellen Smith Craft “I had much rather starve in England, a free woman, than be a slave for the best man that ever breathed upon the American continent.” Ellen Smith Craft, the child of an African American woman and her white owner, was born into slavery in Clinton, Georgia. Sold, she was taken by a new owner to Macon where she met and married another slave, William Craft. Together, they devised a plan to escape. With Ellen posing as William’s master, they traveled by train to Philadelphia. They moved on to Boston, which was considered safer, but under the Fugitive Slave Act, their Georgia owners pursued them until they fled to England. In 1869, they returned to the South. Despite many hardships, they established a cooperative farm for former slaves and a school in Bryan County for their children. Although the projects failed and the Crafts died in poverty, Ellen is remembered for her belief in the dignity and worth of all human beings and her determination to shape a better future for succeeding generations.

Wood Clay Fiber Glass ... Kitchen Witch 18th Century American Windsor Chairs My goal is to preserve the hand craft of Windsor Chair Making by interpreting the work of Master Chair Makers of Colonial America. In keeping with that goal, I make a limited number of American Windsor chairs by hand in the tradition of master craftsmen of the Federal Period in America (1776-1810). One of my earliest childhood memories is of a visit to Independence Hall in Philadelphia. When I returned, years later, I couldn’t get over my fascination with the American Windsor Chairs on display there. Since I’ve been a woodworker all my life, I wanted to learn the skills needed to make these striking pieces of furniture. The more I learned, the more I knew I had found the perfect way to satisfy my love of both American history and woodworking. Making an American Windsor chair in the tradition of colonial craftsmen demands all the woodworker’s skills: riving wood from the log, shaping and carving, shaving spindles, lathe turnings and an intricate assembly process. I make each chair to order, with passionate attention to detail and a true love for the craft.

Wood Clay Fiber Glass ... Kitchen Witch Woodcarver At the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains in South Carolina, Bill Apelian creates heirlooms in wood. Using traditional tools—handsaws, carving gouges, and artist's oil colors—and his imagination, he crafts elegant Old World Santas. Each carving is one-of-a-kind: named, signed, and dated by the artist. Bill prefers the American linden (basswood) for its straight grain, just as the Renaissance master carvers did. After he shapes a block of wood, Bill carves the Santa with hand tools, giving each wood sculpture a personality of its own. Then he mixes and thins artist's oil colors to make stains that color the wood while allowing the grain to show. He lets his imagination, his tools, and the wood work together to produce the delightful expressions, soft coloring and craftsmanship that are the hallmarks of these highly collectible works of art. Bill's great uncle was a wood carver, and the skill and desire also live in Bill. Although he admired his great uncle's work from his boyhood days, he began his own artistry only after his daughter asked him to make her a cat. Today, Bill's Old World Santas have become collectors' favorites for their originality, warmth, and sense of movement. Own one of these Santas and he, like the one of legend, will charm many generations to come.

65. Crafty Ellen And William Ellen and William Craft the story of two married slaves who escaped bondage by diguising themselves as slave and master. http://ndnd.essortment.com/slaverycrossdr_rnik.htm

Crafty ellen and william Ellen and William Craft: the story of two married slaves who escaped bondage by diguising themselves as slave and master. In 1848, Ellen and William Craft-both slaves devised a plan in which to escape their unhappy existence as human property. This plan took form after several years of conjured up forethoughts that would serve as possiblities to their freedom, but nonetheless, in the end would quickly lead back to their recaputure. Ellen Craft, being a quadroon, (her former master being her father, her mother-his slave) could be mistaken as white, and William being an obvious African contrived an ordeal befitting their complexions that would finally free them from bondage. William concluded to disguise his beloved wife as an elderly, feeble and sickly, white gentleman with an injured arm traveling from Georgia to Philadelphia in the presence of his slave. The injured arm serving as a decoy to withdraw suspicion from Ellen’s illiteracy. It was before Christmas that the two obtained several holidays off from their masters, knowing if they were to flee they would not be missed for some days at a time enabling them to grab opportunity by the reigns and live out what they had only spoken about. Fearful they would be recognized, the two took seperate paths to the train station. Upon William’s arrival he entered the negro car, and later, Ellen made it aboard amongst a large crowd of people as a white gentlemen in the presence of other whites.

Writers on Their Craft table of contents The Book That Changed My Life Writing Camp Anthologies ... < Previous Page Writers on their Craft and Their World Introduction by Al Silverman Chairman, Board of Directors National Book Foundation One evening, in the time of Harry Truman and the Cold War and a new novel called , a group of book publishing publicity people began meeting to talk about an awards program for the best work of American fiction, nonfiction and poetry of the year. The award would be the book industry's own, picked by a blue-ribbon board of judges. Among those present were Patricia MacManus, then Publicity Director of Viking Press, and William Cole, who held the same position at Alfred Knopf. I was fortunate recently to be able to sit down with the two to talk about those pioneering discussions. "We'd have singing sessions," Bill Cole remembers, "and then call the meeting together bam! let's go." Other members of that original group included Louise Thomas and Pyke Johnson, Jr. of Doubleday, Jay Tower of the Literary Guild, Eliot Graham of Dutton, and Sonia Leventhal of McGraw Hill. In time they presented their plan to the Book Publishing Council, which gave its blessing, and in 1949 it all came together as The National Book Award. Today, the NBA reposes securely under the umbrella of The National Book Foundation, the new title of the organization that will continue to sponsor and administer the awards as the Foundation broadens its mandate with a year-round program of events designed to enhance the cause of reading in this country.

My book seeks to answer the following questions: How did British and American writers in the 19th and early 20th centuries appropriate the story of the Crafts’ lives in slavery and amazing escape for their own activist purposes? Why did the Crafts, particularly Ellen, remain publicly silent about controversial aspects of their lives? What does the proliferation of commemorations, re-enactments, and plays about the Craft’s lives in the 21st century say about contemporary attitudes towards slavery and freedom? I believe a student can bring to this project, particularly to my research of visual images and public rituals, a fresh eye and unbiased perspective that will be very helpful in writing this book about one story of slavery and its continuing resonances in contemporary culture.

CRAFT’S general area of research over the last decade has been the analysis and design of composite structural materials including: Braided and woven (textile) composites, minimum weight structures for specialized missions, the determination of residual strength and properties after impact, and specialized structural and modeling problems involving new technologies. Another area of interest has been the development of optical and electrical strain and displacement sensors. In addition, Dr. Craft has been active in curricula development and on committees relating to professional engineering, educational, and related topics. The following research is currently being carried out: - The development of stiffness and thermal expansion modeling concepts for various types of composites. A structural model was recently proposed for 4-step (track and column) textile braids which incorporates the off-axis orientations. The model was developed after a review of the braid patterns and an isoparametric solid element was used to predict the stiffness of a number of braided solids. Agreement has been very close to the limited experimental data on braids.

Art Praxis Bios By Name By Date By Location ... Bios Ellen Craft c.1826 - c.1897 "So I write these few lines merely to say that the statement is entirely unfounded, for I have never had the slightest inclination whatever of returning to bondage; and God forbid that I should ever be so false to liberty as to prefer slavery in its stead. In fact, since my escape from slavery, I have gotten much better in every respect than I could have possibly anticipated. Though, had it been to the contrary, my feelings in regard to this would have been just the same, for I had much rather starve in England, a free woman, than be a slave for the best man that ever breathed upon the American continent." - Anti-Slavery Advocate, December 1852 Jump to: Biography and Criticism Selected Bibliography Non-English Materals Related Links Biography / Criticism Many an audience became fascinated with the remarkable story of Ellen Craft as she and her husband William toured the abolitionist lecture circuit in the mid-nineteenth century. Although stories of escape told by former slaves were not uncommon to abolitionist audiences, Ellen's story proved especially intriguing since she courageously passed as both white and male in order to get herself and William to freedom in the North. Ellen Craft was born around 1826 in Clinton, Georgia. Her mother was a slave and her father was her mother's owner. As William tells in the published account of their escape, Running a Thousand Miles for Freedom, Ellen was so white that she was often mistaken as one of her master's family. This angered her mistress so much that she gave the eleven-year old Ellen as a wedding gift to one of her daughters.

The first post-communist decade in Russia saw a massive flight of historians from social history into a booming field of "archival revelations." However, when the dust settled by the beginning of the new millennium, the profession realized that declassified party archives yielded little new information. Russian political historians have produced dozens of descriptive volumes about the executions of the Romanovs, Lenin, Trotsky, and Stalin, and about the Cold War. But the real contribution to knowledge has been made ...
