When Ohio became a state in 1803; settlement of what would become Vinton County had hardly begun. Largely forested then and now; Vinton was carved out of the five adjacent counties and in 1850 became the second-to-last county established in Ohio. McArthur; which later became the county seat with a population of 424; was laid out as the village of McArthurstown in 1815; the village celebrates its bicentennial in 2015; having grown to about 1;700 residents. Although rural in manner; life; and outlook; Vinton Countians have maintained a strong sense of community through both good and bad times in this part of Ohio Appalachia. Images of America: Vinton County features images from the Vinton County Historical and Genealogical Society and photograph collections shared by residents. This book presents a snapshot of the county�s history; heritage; and culture�a story seldom presented in print.

The Actor Within is a must read!By Susan Guthrie LowranceRose Eichenbaums book The Actor Within is a moving journal with thirty five insightful interviews providing a personal glimpse of these talented artists and what brought them to act and perform. Rose has mastered a direct; yet non threatening approach to interviewing her subjects. I commend Rose Eichenbaum for her ability to capture their stories while brilliantly and naturally exposing them through her cameras lens. The Actor Within is prominently displayed in my library along side The Dancer Within and Masters of Movement. This new book will be treasured by all who take the time to read it. I can hardly wait for her next book to be announced!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Insightful; Compelling Look at Noted Actors!By Mike OConnorIn THE ACTOR WITHIN; INTIMATE CONVERSATIONS WITH GREAT ACTORS; author/photographer Rose Eichenbaum probes the psyche of 35 famous American and British actors and actresses. Using a combination of discerning questions and photographs; Eichenbaum offers up wonderfully entertaining profiles that reveal the individual behind the actors mask.Eichenbaums subjects are an eclectic smorgasbord of mostly veteran thespians with a few new kids on the block thrown in. They include CCH Pounder; Ed Asner; Marsha Mason; Amanda Plummer; Elijah Wood; William Macy; Debra Winger; Wes Studi; Lainie Kazan; Ed Harris; Stockard Channing; Joe Mantegna; James Cromwell and Karl Malden.Most entries range between six and eight pages in length with an accompanying pix. While its interesting learning of each individuals background; whats most fascinating about Eichenbaums interviews is the personal insights her adroit questioning unearths. Shes a truly skilled interviewer; varying her approach from actor to actor with well-researched; spot-on questions that; as Asner noted; "led me down a path I dont usually travel."In short; acting afficiandos will enjoy THE ACTOR WITHIN. It is an appealing and instructive examination of notable actors...with their makeoff removed. Recommended.
