  • William Dunlap (February 19, 1766 – September 28, 1839) was a pioneer of American theater. He was a producer, playwright, and actor, as well as a historian. He managed two of New York City's earliest and most prominent theaters, the John Street Theatre (from 1796–98) and the Park Theatre (from 1798–1805). He was also an artist, despite losing an eye in childhood. He was born in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, the son of an army officer wounded at the Battle of Quebec in 1759. In 1783, he painted a portrait of George Washington, while staying at Rockingham in Rocky Hill. The painting is now owned by the United States Senate. He later studied art under Benjamin West in London. Another teacher was Abraham Delanoy, with whom he had a handful of lessons in New York. After returning to America in 1787, he worked exclusively in the theater for 18 years, resuming painting out of economic necessity in 1805. By 1817, he was a full-time painter. In his lifetime he produced more than sixty plays, most of which were adaptations or translations from French or German works. A few were original: these were based on American themes and had American characters. However, he is best known for his encyclopedic three-volume History of the Rise and Progress of the Arts of Design in the United States, which was published in 1834, and which is now an invaluable source of information about artists, collecting, and artistic life generally in the colonial and federal periods. His plays include: * The Father (1789) * Andre (1798) * The Stranger (1798) * The Italian Father (1799) * False Shame (1799) * The Virgin of the Sun (1800) * The Glory of Columbia, Her Yeomanry (1803) * Memoirs of George Frederick Cooke (1813) * A Trip to Niagara (1828) In 1825 Dunlap was one of the founders of the National Academy of Design, and taught at its school. He published his History of the American Theater in two volumes in 1832. (en)
  • William Dunlap (19 februari 1766 - 28 september 1839) was een pionier van het Amerikaanse theater en een portretschilder. Dunlap was een producer, toneelschrijver en acteur, maar ook historicus. Hij was manager van twee van de oudste en belangrijkste theaters van New York: die van John Street Theatre (1796-98) en van het Park Theatre (1798-1805). Daarnaast was hij ook een kunstenaar. Hij werd geboren in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, als zoon van een legerofficier die in 1759 gewond werd in de Slag bij Québec. In 1783 maakte Dunlop een portret van George Washington, nu eigendom van de Senaat van de Verenigde Staten, en studeerde in Londen kunst onder Benjamin West. Na zijn terugkeer naar Amerika in 1787 werkte hij gedurende 18 jaar uitsluitend voor het theater. Het schilderen nam hij uit economische noodzaak pas weer op in 1805. Tegen 1817 was hij een fulltime schilder. Dunlap produceerde meer dan zestig toneelstukken, waarvan de meeste adaptaties of vertalingen waren uit Franse of Duitse werken. Enkele waren origineel: deze waren gebaseerd op Amerikaanse thema's en voerden Amerikaanse personages ten tonele. Dunlap is echter vooral bekend om zijn encyclopedische driedelige History of the Rise and Progress of the Arts of Design in the United States, dat werd gepubliceerd in 1834, en nu een onschatbare bron van informatie is over kunstenaars, verzamelingen en het artistieke leven in de koloniale en federale periodes.
