Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Hollywood has long been thought of as a man's world, but ask any woman and she'll tell you otherwise. From the early days of the silent era of film, women have been busy writing, directing, and acting. Women like Alice Guy-Blache and Lois Weber were two of the first female directors during the dawn of film. This was a time when actresses like Mary Pickford and Lillian Gish starred in the films written by screenwriters like Frances Marion, Anita Loos, and June Mathis. Read all about the women of the early days of the film industry in this edition of "Women Behind the Camera."
