Louise Brooks - Diary of a Lost Girl book and DVD signing on June 3rd

For those interested . . . . I've been asked to sign my Diary of a Lost Girl book (edited and with an intro by yours truly) and DVD (with my audio commentary) at the Castro Theater on Friday, June 3rd, following the San Francisco Silent Film Festival screening of A Woman of the World, starring the great Polish-born actress Pola Negri. . . .  I will have some Louise Brooks / Lulu pinback buttons to give away with purchase of both the book and DVD or Blu-ray. Hope to see you there!
