About this listen

Wes D. Gehring, a noted authority on film comedy, examines Lombard's legacy, focusing on both the public and private figure from her early days as merely beautiful window dressing in Mack Sennett silent films, to her development as the leading motion-picture comedienne of her time, to her tragic death in a January 1942 plane crash.

The book is published by Indiana Historical Society Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.

Critic Reviews

"Details Lombard's life, times and some delicious backstage gossip with a historian's eye and a biographer's appetite for discovery." (Publishers Weekly)
