About the Item

Bless You All Tony Award Broadway Costume Design Mid 20th Century Theatre Modern. Miles White (1915 – 2000) "Bless You All," 15 x 11 (sight) inches. Mixed media on paper. The musical opened December 13, 1950 at the Mark Hellinger Theatre. Miles won the 1951 Tony Award for Costume Design. Miles was one of my closest friends for the last 20 years of his life. We live with one of his two Tony Awards and a dozen drawings. BIO White was a top Broadway and Hollywood costume designer. The artist created the costumes for the original Broadway productions of OKLAHOMA, CAROUSEL, PAL JOEY and BYE BYE BIRDIE. In film, he worked on "Around the World in 80 Days" and "The Greatest Show on Earth." For live shows, White designed costumes, including the elephants, for Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey Circus, and the Ice Capades.
