I just bought her 1998 book "Hero Within" on Ebay. She is 81YO and still at it.

The history of women in early film making has been minimized and eclipsed by dozens of docs on "the moguls". Women were thought to be better story tellers than men were (imagine that ) and they were better paid. I am seeking more perspective for the project I am currently working on and that brought me back to Pearson.
