The Silent Screen & My Talking Heart: An Autobiography,
By Mr. Techno (Puyallup, Washington, US) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Silent Screen & My Talking Heart: An Autobiography (Hemingway western studies series) 3rd ed. (Paperback)
This is a book by one of the first silent film stars of Canada and the US. She ran her own film studio and wrote and acted in her outdoor sagas. Interesting how he studio was put out of business by the mega-studios of the middle 1920s.
