This year marks the 50th Anniversary of Marilyn Monroe’s death…
I am currently writing a book dedicated to her films. The scheduled release date will be sometime late in 2013, possibly early 2014.
**Happy New Year**

2011 in review
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 33,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 12 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

A Bit Of Lupe Velez Promotion From TCM…
Read Here
NOTE: Ordering the book directly from the publisher will ensure that you get it as soon as it’s released. If you order the book from Amazon, there’ll be a delay because the publisher has to ship the books to Amazon’s fulfillment centre and THEN they ship their pre orders from there.
So, if you want the book as soon as it’s released, without delays, order directly from McFarland.

“The Cop and the Anthem” by O. Henry…and featuring Marilyn Monroe
The 1952 film, O. Henry’s Full House featured five short stories, all penned by O. Henry. “The Cop and the Anthem” starred Charles Laughton as a kindly hobo trying his best to get arrested and tossed into a warm jail cell. Incarceration is more pleasant than a harsh New York winter on a park bench. As with most O. Henry tales, there’s a twist to this one too…Marilyn Monroe is featured (about the ten minute mark), albeit for a minute and a half. Watch below.

While my book on Olive Borden goes into detail about one of Hollywood’s most bizarre cases of mistaken identity, for those of you who know nothing about this fascinating story, have a read of the following blog post from my friend and fellow author, Michael Ankerich. He provided the photos of Sybil Tinkle for my book and he’s been a longtime supporter of all things Ollie B 🙂
