Unlike his forebears, however, Laurence chose not to enter the acting profession but gained an international reputation as an artist, set designer, and art director. In these memoirs, Irving vividly recounts working in Hollywood for such distinguished figures as Mary Pickford, Charlie Chaplin, and William Cameron Menzies. Upon his return to the United Kingdom, he worked on such notable films as Moonlight Sonata and George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion." "Irving's time in Hollywood marked the end of the silent film years, and these memoirs depict the effect on the industry, with astute and penetrating portraits of those who felt the change dramatically. Anyone with even the slightest interest in the history of filmmaking and its early characters will not want to miss this insightful account."--BOOK JACKET. | |
