Schwartz uses this production to examine the interplay of technology and popular culture that shaped the twentiethcentury. From Wilbur and Orville to Fred and Ginger, Schwartz's narrative follows the fortunes of aviation and movie pioneers and the foundations and growth of Pan American Airways and RKORadio Pictures, the two companies that came together in Flying Down to Rio. 410 0$aCentennial of flight series ;$vno. 10. 606 $aPopular culture$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aTechnological innovations$xSocial aspects$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMotion picture industry$xSocial aspects$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aAeronautics$xSocial aspects$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aTourism$xSocial aspects$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xCivilization$y20th century 607 $aUnited States$xTerritorial expansion 607 $aUnited States$xRelations$zLatin America 607 $aLatin America$xRelations$zUnited States 615 0$aPopular culture$xHistory 615 0$aTechnological innovations$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aMotion picture industry$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aAeronautics$xSocial aspects$xHistory 615 0$aTourism$xSocial aspects$xHistory 676 $a303.48/32 700 $aSchwartz$b Rosalie$f1936-$01869733 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910957929703321 996 $aFlying down to Rio$94477960 997 $aUNINA
