The history of women in Hollywood seldom gets past the actresses who have graced the silver screen. And while their story is important on their own merits, women have also, since the early days, been active in producing, in studio work, in politics, and in fashioning the films we see today. Quiet on the set!
PLEASE NOTE: The last class will not be on Friday the 18th. It will be held jointly with the Monday Class on the 14th at 10:00 AM in the Klahr 103 classroom. Mike has invited a guest speaker although he has not revealed which movie star it will be.
