Well before television and the internet, there were women who sought fame, flirted with infamy, and actively engaged with their fan base. In today's pop culture world, it can be hard to understand what the lives of these women were like. In their pre-suffrage world, women who attracted attention were considered scandalous and it was largely uncommon for women to become celebrities. Women who rose to fame in those times had to put up with societal standards for women on top of the lack of privacy and free speech. This book provides the details and context to let us know the women who captured America's heart in the 19th century. Rather than looking at influential women who strictly avoided notoriety, it covers the lives of 18 celebrities like Lydia Maria Child, Sojourner Truth, and Jane Addams.

Excerpt from The Motion Picture Story Magazine, Vol. 5: February, 1913 They shook, and pledged long life to the new club in a final round of beers. Jim was in deadly earnest; Bill was good-naturedly acquiescent, from force of habit, and to Ned, young and heart-\whole, the affair seemed only a pledge of loyalty to his two friends, a contract to continue his present care-free existence, which suited him very well.

While the impact that legendary actors and actresses have had on the development of the Hollywood film industry is well known, few have recognised the power of movie fans on shaping the industry. This books redresses that balance, and is the first study of Hollywood's golden era to examine the period from the viewpoint of the fans.
