Adventures of a Hollywood Secretary: Her Private Letters from Inside the Studios of the 1920s

Adventures of a Hollywood Secretary is a non-fiction, Bridget Jones' Diary from the 1920's; a personal journey and a portrait of an era. Valeria Belletti's letters juxtapose the everyday decisions all women face against the backdrop of the burgeoning movie capitol; Valentino's affairs, Sam Goldwyn's bootlegger, Gary Cooper's first role and the challenge of transferring from silent to sound films. Valeria literally trips over history in the making in early Hollywood as she witnesses and participates in filmmaking as a process and shares it with us.
