Hollywood Remembered evokes vivid images of a century of Hollywood, beginning even before it was the film capital of the world, seen through the eyes of those who were there, told in their own words. A marvelous contribution.--Chandler, Charlotte

The place that is revealed so vividly through the casual reminiscences collected in this one-of-a-kind book is the real thing: the fascinating, faded (but reviving) city behind the 'Hollywood' myths. World-famous movie palaces, restaurants, clubs, and businesses both fabled and ordinary are the true stars of this anecdotal history. And as the contributors reminisce about their city, these Hollywood citizens also offer a generous, unvarnished sampling of studio politics.
