释义 | Russell, CharlesRussell, (Charles Ellsworth) “Pee Wee”(1906–69) jazz musician; born in Maple Wood, Mo. He was an eccentric clarinetist whose unpredictability paralleled the alcoholic turbulence of his personal life. He was a sideman with Red Nichols and many others between 1920 and 1937. For the next 30 years, he was a beloved fixture at Dixieland clubs in New York.Russell, Charles (Marion)(1864–1926) painter, sculptor, illustrator; born in St. Louis, Mo. Growing up fascinated with sketching and modeling cowboys, Indians, and animals, he went to Montana at age 16 and settled there, worked as a hunter and cowboy, and lived one winter with the Blood tribe of Canada until in 1892 he decided to devote himself to art full-time. Entirely self-taught, working with oils, water colors, pen-and-ink, and clay, he captured the authentic drama and details of the classic American West, but he never gained quite the standing of his contemporary, Frederic Remington. |
