I seek two panelists, a chair and a commentator with interests in Progressive Era women, immigration, and identity for a session proposal for the AHA Annual Meeting in New Orleans, LA, January 3-6, 2013. Work that also includes education and/or performance is especially welcome. My paper, titled Building National Character: Urbanization, Americanization and Folk Dance in Chicago, 1890 - 1940, explores folk dance as employed by Progressive social settlement workers in the early twentieth century as both bridging and contesting the cosmopolitanism of American cities.
If interested, please send a brief abstract as soon as possible to: jrayherzogenrath@tamu.edu
Be advised that participants will need to submit the following quickly in order to comply with the rapidly approaching deadline of February 15, 2012:
-Paper or presentation titles
-Abstract or description for each presentation (up to 300 words)
-Biographical paragraph or c.v. summary (up to 250 words) for each participant
-Correct e-mail address for each participant
