Newsletter: Essential Arts & Culture: Deciphering Civil War telegrams, summer of Shakespeare, a conductor’s fiery performance
From Civil War telegrams to a historic Los Angeles house to the shaky place of art in Brazil, there has been terrific culture writing going on. I’m Carolina A. Miranda, staff writer for the Los Angeles Times, and here are the week’s top stories:
Decoding Civil War telegrams
The Huntington Library has launched a crowdsourcing project in which volunteers will transcribe or decipher nearly 16,000 Civil War telegrams from Abraham Lincoln, his Cabinet and Army officers.
For more than a century, nearly 16,000 Civil War telegrams have sat locked in a trunk that once belonged to a confidant of President Abraham Lincoln. “They ticked out news of typhoid, scurvy and fear,” writes The Times’ Jeffrey Fleishman. “They spoke of long marches and vast battles. They hummed with frailty and humor, fretting over drunken soldiers and praising the unwavering president of a fraying republic.” Now the Huntington, which holds the trove, is looking for “citizen archivists” to help transcribe and decode them.

Famed French artist keeps Dallasites on their toes at 'Unplayed' opening
A Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders alum whose proposal was featured on the Netflix series America's Sweethearts married her own sweetheart on New Year's Eve: Kelcey Wetterberg wed Nate Crnkovich in a dreamy, two-day affair on December 30 and 31, 2024, in their hometown of Omaha, Nebraska.
People magazine has the exclusive story and photos, captured by DGass Photography.
The couple first exchanged vows in an intimate service at a Roman Catholic Church on December 30. The next day was a bigger ceremony and rockin' party - 300 guests filled Omaha's Leo Ballroom for a New Year's Eve reception that included a six-tier wedding cake and a performance of "Thunderstruck" by Kelcey and her DCC pals.
"This wedding is a dream come true," the bride told People. "My wedding day is always something I wondered about as a young girl. .. but I don't think I ever could have imagined one as beautiful as this. God couldn't have given me a better husband!"
Kelcey, a DCC team captain ("first-group leader") who cheered for five years, became a breakout star ofAmerica's Sweethearts and was featured prominently on Netflix show promos. H
