CTFT also includes entries on personalities who have died but whose work commands lasting interest.Ĭompilation Methods CTFT editors identify candidates for inclusion in the series by consulting biographical dictionaries, industry directories, entertainment annuals, trade and general interest periodicals, newspapers, and online databases. New entries are prepared on major stars as well as those who are just beginning to win acclaim for their work. CTFT gives primary emphasis to people who are currently active. With 191 entries in CTFT 104, the series now provides biographies on approximately 27,452 people involved in all aspects of theatre, film, and television. Scope CTFT covers not only performers, directors, writers, and producers, but also behind-the-scenes specialists such as designers, managers, choreographers, technicians, composers, executives, dancers, and critics from the United States, Canada, Great Britain, and the world. Before the publication of CTFT, information-seekers had no choice but to consult several different sources in order to locate the in-depth biographical and credit data that makes CTFT’s one-stop coverage the most comprehensive available about the lives and work of performing arts professionals. Unlike single-volume reference works that focus on a limited number of artists or on a specific segment of the entertainment field, CTFT is an ongoing publication that includes entries on individuals active in the theatre, film, and television industries.
