SUMMARY

In 1013, Jesse Lasky and Cecil B. DeMille rented Jacob Stern's yellow barn at the corner of Selma Avenue and Vine Street in Hollywood, California, to make a movie called The Squaw Man. The success of this first full-length film shot entirely in Hollywood transformed this quiet Christian-temperance community into the movie-making and entertainment capital of the world--a place synonymous with glamour and gossip, sophistication and scandal--a celluloid dream factory that produces and projects visions of romance, horror, comedy, and tragedy into the psyche of America and the world. Hollywood in Vintage Postcards documents the transformation of "Hollywood the Place" into "Hollywood the Illusion." It is a celebration of the culture, history, and architecture of Hollywood from the turn of the twentieth century to the early 1950s, illustrated with vintage postcards, which famed photographer Walker Evans once described as the "truest visual record ever made of any place."Kennedy, Rodney is the author of 'Hollywood in Vintage Postcards', published 2003 under ISBN 9781586851453 and ISBN 1586851454.
