- History
Movies are a man's industry, except when you consider that Hollywood was essentially built by women. Author, screenwriter and Hollywood history super-nerd, Claire S. Duffy joins to chat about the women who made the movies, and then men and code that wrote them out of the final edit of history. From Mary Pickford and Dorothy Azner to Greta Gabo and our dear friend Frances Marion, these are the women who built Hollywood.
