OF Miss Ridgeway and her splendid
work, little need be said. as she is a
reader of national fame and has ap-
peared in many of the larger cities
of this country.
Regarding her career, lyceum
bulletin published recently has to say
of Miss Ridgeway:
II is generally conceded that the
Katherine Ridgeway Concert Company
is the most popular organization on
the lyceum platform. Miss Ridgeway
is, without doubt, the best known
reader of the present generation.
There has been an increase de-
mand each year for program on
which more of Miss Ridgeways work
would be heard. To meet this she
has agreed to give an evenings enter
tainment, with the assistance of one
other artist, a pianist,
BY birth Miss Ridgeway is a south
erner, native of Atlanta, Georgia,
but most of her childhood was spent
in the far northwest. While student
at the University of Washington,
Spokane, she heard Nella Brown Pond
read. Previous to that time Miss
Ridgeway had not thought of public
reading as profession, but such was
the influence of Mrs. Ponds art and
personality upon the young SUDDEN.
that after the recital Miss Ridgewas
announced to her friends that she
would become a reader. AS soon as
she finished her course at the Univer-
sity she went to Boston, and after two
years study at the Boston school OF
Oratory and with Miss Emma Greel
ey, founder of the Greeley School of
Dramatic Art, she was engaged by the
nedpath Bureau, as reader, with the
Temple Quartet. She was with this
well known quartet for two years,
making a tour of the United States
and Canada. Next year she was
placed at the head of a company of
her own, a position which she accept
ed with some misgiving, but5fwhere
she has won phenomenal success.
Miss Ridgeway has been repeatedly
and enthusiastically received innearly
every city in the United States. But
she is not one of those prophets who
is without honor in her own country.
Indeed, the most enthusiastic aud
fences greet her in her home state,
Washington. "Our Katherine is the
favorite name by which she is called
In her former home cities of Spokane

city formed themselves into a stock
company to build theater, and nam
ed it "The Ridgeway" in her honor.
