Al Jolson Film Anthology Believed to be the best vaudevillian of all time, Al Jolson also has the monumental credit of being the first person to speak in a feature film. It was in vaudeville that his blackface persona was born, as Al believed audiences laughed more for black performers. The story of "The Jazz Singer" is similar to Al's real-life story; he too was expected to be a cantor and ran away from home. "You ain't heard nothing yet," spoken by Al, became the first words uttered on the silver screen, and propelled him to superstardom. www.albert-einstein.net www.stevemcqueen.net www.wrightbrothers2003.com The Roger Richman Agency, Inc. 9777 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 700 • Beverly Hills, California 90212 Telephone 310.276.7000 • Fax 310.276.8023 E-mail: info@therichmanagency.com Website: http://www.therichmanagency.com Copyright © 1997 - 2004 The Roger Richman Agency, Inc.
