Hollywood then and now
Lord, Rosemary.
The film industry came to Hollywood in the early 1900s and Hollywood became a glamour factory, a city of fantasy. It was the home of the stars and the famous Hollywood sign beckoned through the smog, drawing in hopeful wannabes. Hollywood Then and Now teams photos from this Golden Age of Hollywood with modern day images of the area including shots of the Hollywood sign, the Hollywood Studios, and the fantastic film theaters.
About the Author:
Rosemary Lord started as an actress in her native England but created a new career as a writer, when she moved to Hollywood. She wrote in-depth interviews for Woman, Woman's Journal, TV Times, Jackie Magazine and more. She later became a Senior Unit Publicist at Columbia Pictures and has also written film & TV scripts and a lengthy novel. A founding member and former Board of Directors of BAFTA-LA, Rosemary continues her acting and writing career in the city she loves.
