there. Gilpin is the only colored actor
In the cast, which is to man the
game as that which supported him
when he played a year and a half on
Broadway.
GiIpin bears the honor of being the
first negro actor who was ever pro-
posed for membership in the Lambs
club of New York. He failed of be-
coming the first colored member of
this exclusive actors organization by
just one vote. Gilpin was unanimous
" and without mention of his color,
voted by the New York Drama league
as being lone of the ten men who
have done most in this decade for the
advancement of dramatic art"
Gilpin's career is a romantic one.
He was a strolfing minstrel player and
occasionally on the vaudeville stage
several years, getting no recognition
until he was chosen for the part of
Frank McGlynn first played his Ia
nous role n New York. 1t was his
work in this part that gained for him
a try-out as Emperor Jones'
His success then was instantaneous.
Over night he was famous. and all
his hoEors came to him in the last two
years He was awarded the Spingarn
medal by the national society for the
advancement of his race. He was re-
ceived at the White House by Presi-
dent Harding, and was made the guest
of honor at the annual banquet by
the Allied Art Societies of New York.
His appearances in all the leading
cities of the country have been occa-
sions of acclaim wherein the critics
have declared him as almost super
human in his ability to portray a most
difficult role.
