the Reich Chamber of Culture exercised a profound influence over
hundreds of thousands of German artists and entertainers.
Subdivided into separate chambers for music, theater, the visual
arts, literature, film, radio, and the press, this organization
encompassed several hundred thousand professionals and
influenced the activities of millions of amateur artists and
musicians as well. Alan Steinweis focuses on the fields of
music, theater, and the visual arts in this first major study of
Nazi cultural administration, examining a complex pattern of
interaction among leading Nazi figures, German cultural
functionaries, ordinary artists, and consumers of culture.
