For five years, I've been writing about silent film for examiner.com; and for four of those years, I've also been the national Louise Brooks correspondent. My first piece appeared on May 11, 2010. I've
written dozens of pieces, perhaps more than one-hundred (I've lost count). To mark my fourth anniversary as the national Louise Brooks examiner, I've put together this checklist of some of my favorite pieces about the actress. A few have enjoyed some buzz, including tweets by the likes of Roger Ebert and Neil Gaiman (each fans of Louise Brooks).
