{"value"=>"<p>This series mainly documents the career or Louise Homer, with smaller documentation for the careers of Sidney Homer and their daughter Katharine Homer Fryer (a pianist who accompanied her mother on recital tours).</p> <p>Louise Homer's clippings are extensive and sometimes duplicative of what is in the scrapbooks. These are mainly from the years 1900-1907, which includes the 1906 San Francisco earthquake (the Metropolitan Opera was in the city at the time on tour). Concert programs come both in bound books and as loose programs. Loose programs particularly document Homer's early and late career. The scrapbooks are combinations of newspaper clippings, concert programs, itineraries, repertoire listings and occasional photographs. With one exception (a scrapbook devoted to the Homers' 50th wedding anniversary), the scrapbooks are all devoted to professional work.</p> <p>Sidney Homer's programs and scrapbooks document the performances of his music, particularly those that did not involve Louise Homer. Some clippings also document the performance and writing career of Katharine Homer Fryer.</p>"}
