Austin, TX: Texas Monthly Press, c1986. First Printing. Hardcover. very good/very good. 24 cm,xi, [1], 263 pages, notes, index. Foreword by Dan Rather. Jesse Louis Jackson, Sr. (born Jesse Louis Burns; October 8, 1941) is an American civil rights activist, Baptist minister, and politician. He was a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1984 and 1988 and served as a shadow U.S. Senator for the District of Columbia from 1991 to 1997. He is the founder of the organizations that merged to form Rainbow/PUSH. In the primaries, Jackson, who had been written off by pundits as a fringe candidate with little chance at winning the nomination, surprised many when he took third place behind Senator Gary Hart and former Vice President Walter Mondale, who eventually won the nomination. Jackson garnered 3,282,431 primary votes, or 18.2 percent of the total, in 1984, and won five primaries and caucuses, including Louisiana, the District of Columbia, South Carolina, Virginia, and one of two separate contests in Mississippi. As he had gained 21% of the popular vote but only 8% of delegates, he afterwards complained that he had been handicapped by party rules. While Mondale (in the words of his aides) was determined to establish a precedent with his vice presidential candidate by picking a woman or visible minority, Jackson criticized the screening process as a "p.r. parade of personalities". The improbable Presidential campaign of Jesse Jackson. In 1984, Jesse Jackson became the second African American (after Shirley Chisholm) to mount a nationwide campaign for President of the United States, running as a Democrat.An accomplished writer, Faw co-authored "Thunder in America: the Impossible Campaign of the Rev. Jesse Jackson" with Los Angeles Times reporter Nancy Skeleton. Award-winning journalist Bob Faw joined NBC News as a National Correspondent based in Washington, D.C., in September 1994. Prior to joining NBC, Faw was with CBS News for 17 years. While there, he served as a news correspondent based in New York since 1984. He joined CBS News in 1977 as a Chicago-based reporter. Faw has received several awards for his work including a 1984 Emmy for his coverage of the Jesse Jackson campaign, a 1986 Emmy for a series on racism, and a 1988 Emmy for his report that aired on the newsmagazine "48 Hours." He was also awarded the 1982 Overseas Press Club Award for his coverage of the invasion of Lebanon by Israel. In 2000, he received another Overseas Press Club Award for a Nightly News report on Mozambique; that report also received an Emmy in 2000. Faw came to CBS News from WBBM-TV in Chicago (1971-1977) where he was awarded a 1978 Columbia-DuPont, a local Emmy, and a UPI Illinois Broadcast award for his reports on PBB contamination. He received a local Emmy in 1976 for his report on a subway crash, and in 1973 for an expose on fraud in the pet industry. Faw began his broadcast career as a general assignment reporter/anchor at KING-TV in Seattle, WA (January 1969-June 1970). He then moved to WNAC-TV in Boston, where he worked as a general assignment reporter/producer (June 1970-January 1971)., Texas Monthly Press, 3, UK,slim Qrto HB+dw/dj,illustrated 1st edn. FINE/FINE-.

Encouraged by Ben Nicholson,the self-taught TOM EARLY became part of the St. Ives (Cornwall) art colony in the late 1940s and 1950s.His first exhibitions,with Denis Mitchell,were held at the Castle Inn,St. Ives,and were followed by election to membership of the Penwith Society of Artists. EARLY's work quickly grew in confidence and sophistication,his paintings criticall well received at a ground-breaking exhibition 'Fifteen Cornish Artists' at Heal's Mansard Gallery,London in 1951, at which he showed alongside Peter Lanyon, Patrick Heron, Terry Frost and other eminent St. Ives artists.Here he met his second wife,and two years later left Cornwall. It was to be seven years before a second flowering of painting was to emerge.During this period and following a return to medicine he was led into a constructive period of reflection which culminated in his taking up painting again after a move to Derby in 1858.Here with Keith Richardson-Jones he founded the Derby Group of Artists in 1961. EARLY's deeply personal vision aroused interest - not to say cantroversy - in the local and national media.He also exhibited with the Midland Group of artists in Nottingham intil his premature death in 1967 when his life's work effectively disappeared from view. It was rescued from oblivion,through the promptings of Sven Berlin, with a first major retrospective in 1994, 'Tom Early - The rediscovery of a St. Ives artist' at the Belgrave Gallery in London, the publication of 'The Magic Shuttle' by Rdcliffe Press,and an illustrated lecture at the Tate,St. Ives.A major joint exhibition with Denis Mitchell,'The Rock and the Light',at the Penwith Galleries,St. Ives in 1996 was followed by a number of mixed exhibitions.All this led naturally to the publication of this catalogue raisonne,the recording by Michael Miller,artist and friend,of around 150 paintings,works on paper and sculpture.Dr Denys Wilcox reveals Tom Early to be a rare visionary artist with a profound poetic gift in his appraisal prefacing the catalogue.
