For the record - Feb. 17, 2011
Fred Katz: An article about musician Fred Katz in the Feb. 16 Calendar said that the 2010 “Jews on Vinyl” concert at the Skirball Center had been curated by USC communications professor Josh Kun. It was curated by the Idelsohn Society for Musical Preservation, of which Kun is a member. The article also said that Kun helped arrange the 2007 reissue of Katz’s 1959 album, “Folk Songs for Far Out Folk.” It was the Idelsohn Society that helped get the album reissued.
Oscar hosts: An article in the Feb. 15 Envelope section about Academy Awards hosts James Franco and Anne Hathaway said this year would mark the first time the Oscar show had no comedian as host since 1973. In fact, actor Hugh Jackman hosted in 2009. The mistake was repeated in a Feb. 15 Calendar cover item referring to the Envelope.
