Join Christina Rice, Senior Librarian of the Los Angeles Public Library Photo Collection in discussion with James Sherman, Librarian in the Literature & Fiction Department about Rice's newly published biography on Jane Russell, Mean...Moody...Magnificent! Jane Russell and the Marketing of a Hollywood Legend (University Press of Kentucky).

By the early 1950s, Jane Russell should have been forgotten when producer Howard Hughes largely kept her offscreen for most of the decade. But instead of fading into film obscurity, Russell carved out a place for herself in Hollywood and became a memorable and enduring star.
