They are revered, but at the same time very well known, arid their work is ex hibited not only in museums and in homes but also in public theaters and depart ment stores. Theirs is popular art. ,4They are so highly respected," Birth adds, that they're usually treated with great deference. Even the man in the street is aware of these people through their many public exhibitions. Not even our biggest movie stars in America are so elevated by their fans." Hallmark Hall of Fame Brings Mr. Lincoln To Center The complex and engaging personality of Abraham Lin coln comes to life on "Mister Lincoln," airing Monday, February 9 at 9 p.m. On Center Channel 4. Starring British actor Roy Dotrice in a one-man performance, the 90-minute Hallmark Hall of Fame special dramatizes Lin coln's life and mind his rich wit and humor as well as his statesmanship and pathos. The full range of this great and humane personality is finely etched in the script of Herbert Mitgang, Lincoln scholar and New York Times columnist. Videotaped earlier this year at Ford's Theatre in Washington, D. C, where Lincoln was fatally .shot in 1965, the play is a dramatic retrospective of key moments in our 16th President's life those of both historial and personal significance. As portrayed by dotrice, Lincoln emerges as one whose incisive wit prevailed even in dire circumstances. For exam ple, he was informed by telegram that the Battle of Bull Run the war's first had produced a surprising booty. "We have captured six cows," the wire said. "What shall we do with them? Lincoln's response: "Please milk them." Challenged and tormented by the terrible war and by growing political hostility, Lincoln had to endure private hardships as well: his "old melancholia;" his wife's in creasing mental instability; his vivid nightmares one of which was to foresee his own assassination. "Mister Lincoln" is the first in a series of three Hallmark Hall of Fame specials premier ing on Center in 1981.
