Hanshaw, Annette (1901-1985) 25, Annette Hanshaw was an American Jazz Age singer. She was one of the most popular radio stars of the late 1920s and early 1930s, with many of her most notable performances taking place on NBC's Maxwell House Show Boat.
"I disliked all of [my records] intensely. I was most unhappy when they were released. I just often cried because I thought they were so poor, mostly because of my work, but a great deal, I suppose, because of the recording. [...] I disliked the business intensely. I loathed it, and I'm ashamed to say I just did it for the money. I loved singing, you know, jamming with the musicians when it isn't important to do, but somehow or another I was terribly nervous when I sang. [...] You just have to be such a ham and love performing, and I happen to be an introvert, and I just wasn't happy singing, and I wasn't happy with my work as I said." – Interview with Jack Cullen, 1972 Wikipedia

Hoover, Herbert (1874-1964)
76; 31st president of the USA (1929-1933). At first, Herbert Hoover wasn’t considered a “right-wing” figure at all. He was a Progressive Republican — a technocrat, engineer, and humanitarian. He supported efficiency, scientific management, and limited social reform — ideas closer to the Progressive center than the old conservative right. However, after the stock-market crash of 1929 and the Great Depression, Hoover’s cautious policies — balanced budgets, voluntary business cooperation, limited federal relief — put him increasing conflict with progressives and to the right of the emerging New Deal consensus. So by 1932, critics saw him as the embodiment of conservative Republican orthodoxy — defending business, individualism, and fiscal restraint while millions were unemployed. Wikipedia
