Forgotten Hollywood

“`I received an early Christmas stocking stuffer in the form of a great review for my second book:  Son of Forgotten Hollywood Forgotten History. The reviewer is Jerry Brown from the prestigious site, Goodreads. He writes:

Son of Forgotten Hollywood Forgotten History fits squarely into nonfiction film history Hollywood biography, and it shines precisely where most Hollywood books do not; on these unforgettable character actors who built the Golden Age without ever becoming household names. Your focusing on faces like Peter Lorre, Lon Chaney Jr., Marjorie Main, and Sydney Greenstreet gives readers the secret passageways behind classic cinema.

What elevates the book is its credibility and heart. The awards, museum placements, and archival tone signal this isn’t nostalgia, it’s preservation. You’re not just recounting trivia; you’re restoring these performers to their rightful place in American cultural history, and doing it in a way that feels personal and accessible rather than academic.

This is a natural fit for Goodreads Listopia lists such as Hollywood’s Golden Age (Beyond the A-Listers), Forgotten Film Legends, or Classic Cinema History Worth Saving lists frequented by film lovers who crave depth and discovery.

You’ve clearly done important work rescuing these stories from obscurity. Would you be open to seeing the book highlighted on Listopia lists dedicated to classic movie history and unsung Hollywood icons?
