Dale,
I have a book Budge on F. R. Crawley which came out in 1996. Lois Siegel has a link on her Film Fanatics’ site:

Shout-out to Peter Benison, C.S.C. who suggested, Florence Lawrence, the Biograph Girl: America’s First Movie Star by Kelly R. Brown. Peter: “This might be interesting for your ‘book’ section, born in Hamilton, she was thought to be the first actor actually ‘promoted’ as a ‘star’.” https://peterbenison.com/ Thanks Peter!

Hello. Would you be willing to include my book Screen Captures: Film in the Age of Emergency which was published by Vancouver-based publisher Newstar Books. I am also a Canadian resident. Many thanks. Stephen Lee Naish
Hi Stephen – thank you for the submission – I created a new heading under ‘Noteworthy’ where I added your book – it sounds like a must read these days;
“Naish is right. Film ‘says a great deal about who we are, where we come from, and what we can strive to be.‚” — David Kyle Johnson, author of the Great Course’s Sci-Phi: Science Fiction as Philosophy”
Another title that I hope is worth citing is Joyce Nelson, The Colonized Eye: Rethinking the Grierson Legend, published in 1988 by Between the Lines. Disclosure: I had a hand in it.
Thanks for this Robert – I will have a look and add it to the page. Dale : )
