In October 2021 (exact date is TBD due to impact of COVID19 on exhibit development schedule), the Library of Congress will mount an exhibition with the working title: That’s Showbiz: Hollywood, Hope, and Fame. It will tell engaging stories that explore, analyze, and vivify the phenomenon of American show business celebrity in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The Exhibition will focus on ways that Hollywood celebrities from various eras have emerged to establish strong connections with the public; navigated the challenges, price, perks, power, and dangers of their careers; how celebrities have adjusted—or not—to changing times; and how they can lose their connection with the public. The stories will be set within ever-changing technological, institutional, and cultural landscapes. The exhibit will have a special focus on Bob Hope’s extraordinary career, which began on Broadway and covered most every entertainment medium of the twentieth century—from live theater to Hollywood films, broadcast radio, and finally, television. The Library seeks a contractor to provide creative, dynamic, and sustainable interpretive multimedia through audiovisual presentations and projections, as well as interactive technology.
