The CalArts Story (1964)

The CalArts Story
originally presented at the 1964 gala premiere of Mary Poppins
(which is, coincidentally, the first movie I ever saw in a theatre)

"No nation, and no community, can flourish, or possibly even survive, unless it provides full opportunities for the encouragement, the development, and the full utilization of the intellectual and the artistic talents of its people."
Lee A. DuBridge
