“Rag pickers”, “Ladies maids” and “Stitch dames”
Using previously unavailable material from the archives of the Motion Picture Costumers union (IATSE Local 705), this article reconstructs the emergence of television from the perspective of those working in Hollywood’s wardrobe department. Focussing on an area of screen production typically overlooked within media histories, it provides a corrective to the narratives of ‘great men’ in television and argues that the work of these (largely female)…
Women's broadcasting histories and the archive
This provocation details varied perspectives of the International Women's Broadcasting Histories (IWBH) network on researching the role of women in broadcasting. The conversational form allows us to roam across the topic widely, to express a range of discrete positions and distinct arguments, with the desire to bring dilemmas to the surface and explore their implications without reduction. Responding with a series of interventionist statements ar…
In Conversation with Women Practitioners
The following section consists of six interviews with women practitioners. Despite their differences in roles, media systems, and the period in which they worked, similar themes emerged across all
Women’s Television Histories
This special issue aims to take steps towards the internationalisation of scholarship on women’s television by drawing together articles on different national contexts of television and detailing the experiences of women in various national and historical television ecologies and economies. This is, of course, merely a step, since no one issue can attend to the breadth of women’s experiences in the many national television organisations and roles…
An indie voice for a generation of women’
Greta Gerwig’s solo directorial debut Lady Bird (2017) hit screens during an extraordinary cultural moment in which stories of the abuse women suffer at the hands of powerful men were receiving unparalleled visibility. The #MeToo movement prompted the entertainment industry to reflect upon issues of diversity, equality, and women’s roles on and off screen. As a woman filmmaker on the press circuit at the time, Gerwig was symbolically recruited an…
Activism to make and do
Based on qualitative interviews conducted with local guilds, charities and community groups in England, this article highlights the public service older women provide for their communities by volunteering their labour to local textile craft groups. Driven by an ethics of care, they make up for a lack of services formerly provided by the welfare state, such as public transport and mental health support. We mobilise existing literature on ‘quiet ac…
The Invisible Institution? Reconstructing the History of Bafta and the 1958 Merger of the British Film Academy with the Guild of Television Producers and Directors
As a cultural institution of national and global significance, the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) is notably absent from existing scholarship on the media industries. More importantly, BAFTA's role as an independent arts charity set up by the industry to support and develop new talent is often overlooked. Instead, references to BAFTA made by media and film scholars most frequently take the form of footnotes or digressions tha…
Below-the-(Hem)line
This article examines the storytelling practices of a particular community of “below-the-line” practitioners: costume designers. Their stories are often written out of media histories that privilege the testimonies of above-the-line (typically male) professionals. This article provides a corrective to these androcentric accounts of media production. Using material gathered from the Costume Designers Guild's official publication, the Costume Desig…
Contemporary Girls Studies
As we move towards the second International Girls Studies Association Conference, to be held at the University of Notre Dame, Indiana, in February 2019, we reflect on the work of the scholars and practitioners who presented at our first conference in April 2016, in Norwich, UK. In this special issue of Girlhood Studies: An Interdisciplinary Journal we highlight the diversity of articles presented at the conference that provided us with a sense of…
Fashion, celebrity and cultural workers
Fashion and celebrity culture , by Pamela Church Gibson
In his seminal volume Stars, Richard Dyer (1979) gestured toward the complex relationship between fashion and stardom in his discussion of stars as ‘a phenomenon of consumption’. Building on Dyer
