Johann Strauss Sr. was born on March 14, 1804, in Vienna, Austria. His father owned a small inn on the river Danube, and his mother was innkeeper, she died when he was seven years old. Strauss studied music with Johann Polichansky and also was an apprentice of a bookbinder. He joined a string quartet that grew into a small orchestra playing Viennese waltzes and German dances. Strauss became the leader of the orchestra, then he eventually became conductor of another orchestra. In 1825 he formed his own orchestra and began writing waltzes and other dancing music for his band.
In 1825 Strauss Sr. married Maria Ann Streim in the parish church of Liechtenthal in Vienna. They had three sons. Their elder son Johann Strauss became the most famous composer of waltzes and operettas. Their younger sons 'Josef Strauss' and Eduard Strauss deputized for their famous brother Johann Strauss when he was ailing. They continued the legacy of the Strauss Family Dynasty. In 1834 Strauss Sr. took on a mistress, named Emilie Trambusch, with whom he had eight children.
During the 1830's and 1840's Strauss Sr. became one of the most well known dance composers in Vienna. He wrote mostly waltzes, polkas, and marches, and also absorbed influences from his concert tours in other countries, where he picked up tunes of quadrille and gigue. Strauss Sr. toured with his band to France, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands, England and Scotland. His 1837 trip to France brought him highest international acclaim and proved his popularity with all audiences. Influential critic and composer Hector Berlioz promoted Strauss' popularity, helping his ambitious plan to perform his music in England for the coronation of Queen Victoria in 1838. After that Strauss made many more concert tours to England with his orchestra.
In Vienna he established himself at the Sperl-Ballroom as the most popular dancing music composer. He became the first entertainer to start charging a fixed entrance fee to his concerts instead of an old practice of passing around a collection plate. In 1845 his son Johann Strauss debuted at the Dommayer's Casino and immediately became his competitor. Strauss Sr. was jealous about his son's talent and success and refused to play ever again at the Dommayer's Casino. In 1848 Strauss Sr. composed his most famous piece of music titled Radetzky March. It was dedicated to Austrian Field Marshal Radetzky and remained a popular march among the soldiers. The tradition among officers was to start clapping and stomping their feet when the chorus was played. This tradition is carried over today when Radetzky March is played in classical music venues in Vienna.
Strauss Sr. survived a divorce suit which was started by his wife Maria Anna in 1844, and allowed his sons to actively pursue an independent musical career. He died from scarlet fever on September 25, 1849, in Vienna, and was laid to rest in Zentralfriedhof in Vienna, Ausria.- Hermann Kletke was born on 14 March 1813 in Breslau, Silesia, Germany [now Wroclaw, Dolnoslaskie, Poland].

Born into a large Bohemian-Polish family in Chicago on March 14, 1864, William N. Selig was one of the true pioneers of the motion picture industry. Though not widely remembered today, his Selig Polyscope Co. was responsible for many landmark events in early cinema. Among these were construction of the first permanent studio in Los Angeles in 1908-1909, production of the first cliff-hanger serial (The Adventures of Kathlyn (1913)) and the first film version of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1910).
After working as an upholsterer, then a vaudeville magician in Chicago, Selig traveled to northern California in 1890 to run a fruit ranch in a small town called Chicago Park. The move was partially necessitated by health problems he was having at the time. By 1893 William had recovered enough to start an African-American minstrel company known as "Selig and Johnson's Colored Minstrels." Performing in the San Francisco area, the most notable member of this troupe was Bert Williams, who would become the greatest African-American comedian of the vaudeville era.
Upon seeing an Edison Kinetescope at the Dallas Fair in 1894, Selig decided to return home to Chicago where he began working on his own camera-projection system. In 1896 he founded one of the world's first motion picture studios. From very modest beginnings, his Selig Polyscope Co. quickly grew to be one of the major players during the pioneer era. With the help of a machinist named Andrew Schustek, Selig designed one of the earliest camera-projectors. Based largely on the Lumiere Cinematographe, his invention would share its name with his fledgling studio.
The first decade of Selig Polyscope's operation was marked by legal turmoil, due largely to the efforts of Thomas A. Edison's lawyers. Finally, in 1909, Selig and several other studio heads formed an uneasy alliance with Edison. The resulting Motion Picture Patents Company and its distribution arm General Films would dominate the film industry until 1915. That year the independent companies won a major victory when the Supreme Court ruled the M.P.P.C. an illegal monopoly.
"Colonel" Selig's ambitions were not strictly confined to cinema. Around 1911 he began acquiring land for what would become the largest private zoo in the world. The Selig Zoo at Eastlake (now Lincoln) Park, in Los Angeles was a logical extension of his movie business. Over the years, William had accumulated a sizable collection of animals for his jungle movies. The 32-acre zoo allowed him to showcase his menagerie while leaving room for studios at the back of the grounds. Many famous animals resided at the zoo, including the original Leo the MGM lion.
Once the zoo/studio was in operation, Selig no longer needed the first L.A. studio that director Francis Boggs had opened for him in Edendale (now Echo Park). An up-and-coming producer named William Fox decided to lease that site for his soon-to-be-famous company. Another giant of the industry benefited from Selig's initial investment in Los Angeles. Louis B. Mayer moved into the studios at the zoo once Selig retired from major production around 1920. The Colonel had no desire to compete against these younger, more aggressive movie moguls.
There were other factors which led William to leave the industry he helped found. With the release of The Spoilers (1914) in 1914, Selig enjoyed his greatest success. At this point Selig Polyscope appeared to have a bright future, but things quickly changed. During this time the industry was evolving from producing the short films Selig specialized in to the modern feature-length productions. While William did make longer films like "The Spoilers," he felt shorts were the way of the future. The onset of World War I also hurt Selig Polyscope, given its extensive European operations. Finally, the dissolution of the Patents Company made the industry more competitive, dooming the pioneer studios.
Selig moved into independent production after closing his studios, working infrequently until the 1930s. The Colonel's glory days were past, though, and he faded into obscurity. The cost of operating a large zoo and the Great Depression had reduced Selig's fortune to nothing. He became a literary agent in his later years, selling off the story rights purchased years before for his films. In 1947 Selig and several other film pioneers were awarded special Oscars. He died the following year on July 15, with his loving wife of many years, Mary, at his side.- Cinematographer

- Clarice Vance was a well known vaudeville headliner from the turn of the century to 1910. Her bio from the Johnson Briscoe 1904 book "The Actors' Birthday Book" states . . . "All lovers of vaudeville, from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from the Canada Border to Mexico Gulf, are familiar with the admirable methods of Clarice Vance, so well known by her sobriquet of 'The Southern Singer.' The first few years of Miss Vance's stage career were given over to farce comedy productions and it was not until about 1897 that she awoke to the full possiblities of the "coon song". Since then she has made this particular style of song her one big feature in the vaudevillle theaters and her popularity is truly amazing." In 1904 a Boston ciritic wrote,"Her charm is as powerful as it is indescribable". Between 1905 and 1909 she recorded for Edison (two cylinders) and for Victor (1906-1909). Several of her Victor recordings were big hits. Her recording of "I'm Wise" (1907) stayed in the Victor catalogs for 15 years. Other hits were "He's a Cousin of Mine" and "I'm Afraid to Come Home In the Dark". She played the Palace of Varieties in London for 26 week in 1909 and in 1910 starred in "A Skylark", a lavish Broadway musical production with Hazel Cox. Her picture appeared in Vanity Fair. In 1904, she married Moses Gumble, songwriter and New York manager of Remick Music Publishing. Together they were part of the New York theatrical elite. Clarice's stature (and she was over six feet tall) was such that all songs submitted to Remick were reviewed for her exclusive use in vaudeville. The Gumbles divorced in 1914 and Clarice nearly disappears from theatrical history. A single engagement at the Tivoli Opera House in San Francisco in 1919 and a brief appearance in movies, Down to the Sea in Ships (1922) and Daughters of the Night (1924) signify the end of her theatrical career. Today her records are prized and capture her unique spirit and subtle comedy gift. Her whereabouts and activities from 1924 to 1951 remain a mystery. Her picture graces dozens of pieces of sheet music from 1900 to 1914 . . . . but alas, references to her in show business documentaries are almost nonexistent. Abel Green of Variety referred to her in 1951 as one of the "vaudeville greats". Note: A complete vaudeville sketch, "April First" written by Clarice in 1900 can be accessed through the American Memories, Library of Congress Web site. In 1951 she was committed to the Napa, Californina hospital for the insane. At the time of her death in 1961 she had no friends or relatives. Only through an odd coincidence was it discovered that the deceased was Clarice Vance, a person of significant show business importance.
- Clifton Penny was born on 14 March 1872 in Adelaide, South Australia, Australia. He was an actor, known for Harvest Gold (1945) and A Son Is Born (1946). He died on 29 July 1948 in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
- American character actress famed for roles as mothers. Born in a Philadelphia suburb as Mary Kennevan, she became a schoolteacher, but soon gave it up for work as an actress in touring companies. She married actor William Carr and toured extensively with his company. After the turn of the century, he became involved in film production as both an actor and director, and he brought Mary and their six children into the film business with him. Mary made her film debut in 1916, but it was her appearance in Over the Hill to the Poorhouse (1920) which made her a success in movies. It was a tremendous success due in large part to her touching portrayal of a poverty-stricken mother. She followed it with similar roles in scores of films throughout the silent period. A fallow period arrived with the talkies, and Carr found herself nearly destitute, but publicity about her status rallied help to her cause and she found help and occasional work. She spent her later years appearing infrequently, often in films directed by her son Thomas Carr. She died at the age of 99 in November 1973.
- Herbert Pemberton was born on 14 March 1874 in Leeds, Yorkshire, England, UK. He was a writer, known for Nearer My God to Thee (1917) and Bonnie Mary (1918). He died on 13 January 1941 in Leeds, Yorkshire, England, UK.

- Paul Ilg suffered all his life from the stigma of his poor origins. Although he received repeated literary recognition, he could not establish himself permanently in the literary business of his time. He usually lived in difficult financial conditions and was always on the lookout for patrons. This experience also characterizes Ilg's socially and socially critical work, which often refers to "a degraded, humiliated, homeless, unhumanized, socially disadvantaged man who, by means of economy, art and love, bends and breaks into the higher spheres, the apparent spheres of happiness society, where castles and silver-laden hotel halls seek to cover up the memories of poor-blooded childhood".
Paul Ilg was born in Salenstein as the illegitimate son of the farmer's daughter and factory worker Marie Ilg. In his first three years of life, he grew up on the farm of the grandparents and was sent after their death as Verdingbub to relatives to Rehetobel. He also had to operate as a peddler in Appenzellerland, before he fled in 1886 as a nine-year-old to his mother to Rorschach. A short time later, the two moved to St. Gallen where Ilg also attended secondary school. After a scholarship to attend a high school was rejected, Ilg began successively a locksmith, cooking and trade, but he broke off shortly after the beginning again. Also a training on the bank in the French Switzerland failed. At the age of 20, Ilg finally found employment as a clerk at a property speculator in Zurich and began writing his first texts. At the age of 21, he was offered a position as secretary of the Swiss National Exhibition in Geneva in 1896.
The central work consists of the four volumes "Das Menschlein Matthias", "Die Brüder Moor", "Lebensdrang" and "Der Landstörtzer" (1906-1913), which describe youth and hiking time in the spirit of the development novel Ilgs. The Germanist and literary critic Charles Linsmayer says of his artistic power: "The portrayal of his childhood in the novel 'Das Menschlein Matthias' is still one of the most touching youth portraits of Swiss literature." - Actor

Louis Nikola, born as Walter James Obree Smith, in 1878, Southampton, UK, was a British magician, shadowist, actor, writer and director. He published some magic in Volume XXI of The Boy's Own Paper in 1898-99 with a series titled The "B.O.P." Magician', the first of a number of magical contributions to that journal. Walter Smith became a professional magician in 1901, using the stage name Louis Nikola, a persona he found in the Guy Boothby's Dr Nikola books. He performed around the world and was known for his many inventions. Among his magical highlights he performed the best Card Castle. After spreading the cards on the tray, he'd cover it with a silk....the silk would rise slowly and when at its zenith, Nikola would carefully remove the silk to reveal the card castle. As he walked away he would deliberately bump the tray and the castle would collapse, giving evidence to its delicate construction. The film industry in Britain discovered him in 1913 and cast him as magician and spiritualist. Walter James Obree Smith died in South Harrow, London on Nov. 11, 1936.- Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, Kingdom of Württemberg, to a German Jewish family.

He then attended a Swiss Polytechnic, where he met his first wife. He graduated in 1900, and became a Swiss citizen in 1901. He began working at the Swiss Patent Office and continued his scientific studies. He taught at universities in Prague, Zurich, and Berlin, and continued his research in physics. The onset of World War II led him to move to the United States, and he was granted a post at the Institute for Advanced Study in New Jersey. Einstein was heavily involved in attempting to bring about world peace in his later life, and he continued his scientific research until his death in 1955.
