Summary

Antje Price reported new leads about Feodor Protar’s German-language theater activity and newspaper work, based on San Antonio library conversations and an 1881 city directory. She presented the findings as part of an incomplete, ongoing biography.

Evidence limits

The report is a research update, not a primary theater program, directory scan, newspaper copy, or completed chronology; Price explicitly describes remaining gaps and inaccessible microfilm.

Sources

  1. Reports that a San Antonio library investigation found Protar associated with German-language classical theater in San Antonio from 1881–1900 years earlier, including performances with an associate named Schmidt and a troupe trip to New Braunfels. A 1881 city directory listed him as a newspaper reporter; Price also says he later edited and published a German-language newspaper in Rock Island. The article is a research lead based on secondary conversations and inaccessible microfilm, not a completed biographical proof. The holding institution's portal restricts automated access; the archive holds a copy of this issue and can provide it on request.
