Through magical, never-before-seen archival photographs, you will be taken on a fabulous journey exploring the history of Twentieth Century Fox Studios. This book triggers so many fond personal memories: from the studio commissary to the schoolhouse where I spent endless hours, to a look inside the sound stages we used while working on The Sound of Music.
Angela Cartwright, actress whose work includes The Danny Thomas Show, Lost in Space, and The Sound of Music; artist; author of Styling the Stars Twentieth Century Fox was a wonderful place. It was like a separate little world of its own. I remember the huge buildings full of antique cars, stagecoaches and varied pieces of architecture. It was just incredible, and so much fun to wander through. There were New York, Western and Midwestern streets, a Roman square, the countryside . . . it was huge, and an extraordinary place. I worked them all. There was no other studio like it.
Debra Paget, Twentieth Century Fox contract player, 1948-1956 With each passing year, more pieces of Hollywood history are lost or forgotten. That’s why a book like this is so welcome, especially with the gallery of rare behind-the-scenes photos that take us back in time.
