Writer Laura Wagner lives in New York. A regular contributor to various movie publications, she is the book reviewer for Classic Images.
"An absolute must to all who love cinema...Wagner, a brilliant
young writer, poignantly depicts those women who achieved some
measure of success before fate dealt them losing hands...a wealth
of previously unpublished information and set the record straight
on long inaccuracies. Excellent research, and a person thank you
from this reviewer."--Argunners Magazine
"With meticulous details gathered from an impressive variety of
sources ranging from newspaper archives and history books to family
members and friends, Wagner delves into the lives of 23 women who
made their way to Hollywood and met unfortunate fates, shedding
light on their lives and the systems they fell victim
to."--Filmint.nu.
