How Junior Laemmle Changed the Face of Movies

TVC 585.2: Julian David Stone talks to Ed about the many ways in which wunderkind producer Carl Laemmle Jr. changed Universal Studios and the face of movies altogether in the 1930s. Julian's latest novel, It's Alive!, captures the vibrant, exciting, and often chaotic days of 1930s Hollywood while also weaving in such actual figures as Bela Lugosi, director James Whale, legendary gossip columnist Louella Parsons, and Boris Karloff himself. It's Alive is available in hardcover, as an eBook, and as an audiobook through Greenleaf Book Group and Amazon.com.

Julian David Stone's other books include No Cameras Allowed: My Career as an Outlaw Rock 'n' Roll Photographer: 1981-1987, the amazing story of how Julian managed to sneak camera equipment into rock concerts over a six-year period during the mid 1980s (and, along the way, amassed a collection of more than 10,000 up-close-and-personal photographs of some of the biggest rock stars of the era), and The Strange Birth, Short life, and Sudden Death of Justice Girl, a historical novel based in the world of the 1950s live television that is currently being developed into a TV series.
