He worked as an actor and newspaper reporter in addition to later work as publicist, playwright, novelist, and composer. Fowler joined the staff of the Los Angeles Examiner in 1944. As a newspaper man, he is remembered for his claim of being first on the scene of the unsolved murder of Elizabeth Short, the "Black Dahlia." He also followed the cases of executed killer Louise Peete, and Beulah Louise Overell and her lover George "Bud" Gollum. Fowler left the Examiner in 1947, but returned to the newspaper business in 1949 when he joined the Los Angeles Herald & Express staff under city editor Agness Underwood. After his father's death in 1960, Fowler resigned from his position as News Director at local television station KTTV to write Gene Fowler's biography, The Young Man From Denver (1962). Other literary works by Fowler include The Second Handshake (1980), The Reporters (1991), Bud and Louise (undated manuscript), and Odyssey of a Spring Lamb (undated manuscript). Fowler married his high school girlfriend, Beverly Blanchard, and the two had four children, Will Jr., Michael, Claudia, and Jenny. Fowler died in April 2004 after a long bout with cancer.

  • “From the Archives of Keystone Memory”
    5 “From the Archives of Keystone Memory” Slapstick and Re-membrance at Columbia Pictures’ Short-Subjects Department The mood of retrospect seems indeed the soundest of possible instincts, fulfilling a purpose against which almost every large force in the country seemed to war upon, that to take root. Constance Rourke, American Humor (1931) If anybody else says it’s like old times, I’ll jump out the window. Buster Keaton, in Limelight (1952) If one asks the naïve question “When was American film comedy’s golden age?” one encounters the paradox that there has only ever seemed to be one answer: the silent era, specifically sometime between the ascent of Chaplin in the mid- 1910s and the coming of sound. Often cited, James Agee’s eloquent 1949 Life essay, “Comedy’s Greatest Era,” is a turning point in this regard, a nostalgic paean that, once and for all, elevated silent comedy as a symbol of the past glories of popular culture. “Anyone who has watched screen comedy over the past ten or fifteen years is bound to realize that it has quietly but steadily deteriorated. As for those happy atavists who remember silent comedy in its heyday and the bellylaughs and boffos that went with it, they have something close to an absolute standard by which to measure the deterioration.”1 It is a remarkable rewriting of slapstick comedy. Agee’s essay was crucial in establishing Chaplin, Keaton, Lloyd, and Langdon as a kind of Mount Rushmore of comic achievement—the “four most eminent masters”— and it did so, we have seen, by appreciating slapstick in formal terms as an art of pantomime (see the introduction).

  • American Female Executions 1900 - 2021
    American female executions 1900 - 2021. A total of 56 women have been lawfully executed in 20 states of the USA between 1903 and January 2021, including three under Federal Authority. 55 of them died for first degree murder or conspiracy to first degree murder and one for espionage. 39 executions took place between 1903 and 1962 and a further 14 since the resumption of the death penalty in 1976, between 1984 and 2014. Shellie McKeithen (executed January 1946) is erroneously included in some lists, but Shellie was male, despite his first name. 25 of these women died in the electric chair, 15 by lethal injection, 9 by hanging and 7 by lethal gas. 1) Thirty eight year old Dora Wright (black) became the first woman to be executed in the 20th century when she was hanged in Indian Territory at South McAllister, in what would become Oklahoma, on July 17, 1903. She was executed for the murder of 7 year old Annie Williams who is thought to have been her step daughter. Dora had beaten and tortured Annie repeatedly over a period of several months before finally killing her on February 2, 1903. According to a local newspaper it was “the most horrible and outrageous” crime in memory in the area. On May 29, 1903 the jury took just 20 minutes’ deliberation to reach a guilty verdict, but were divided upon the sentence, with three voting for life and nine for death. After a further half an hour the three had been won round and death was the unanimous recommendation.

  • The Transgressive Discourse of Rowland Brown's
    Revista de Comunicación de la SEECI. (Julio 2016). Año XX (40), 133-153 ISSN: 1576-3420 INVESTIGACIÓN/RESEARCH Recibido: 26/04/2016 --- Aceptado: 19/05/2016 --- Publicado: 15/07/2016 THE TRANSGRESSIVE DISCOURSE OF ROWLAND BROWN’S CINEMA (1931-1933): A BRIEF CAREER IN PRE-CODE HOLLYWOOD Carmen Guiralt Gomar1: University of Valencia. Spain. [email protected] ABSTRACT: This article consists in the analysis of the Rowland Brown director’s film work and career, who was one of the first (if not the first) directors-screenwriters of Hollywood. He developed his career during Hollywood’s pre-Code era and he only directed three idiosyncratic films linked to the gangster genre: Quick Millions (1931), Hell’s Highway (1932) and Blood Money (1933). There were a great number of reasons why he was thrown out from Hollywood and he was not allowed to return to direct, among them the highly transgressive and critical discourse of his cinema. Despite of the singularity and originality of his film work, today Brown is a forgotten figure, only recognised by a prestigious group of film historians. His cinema has not been studied thoroughly yet. The final aim of this article it to contribute to filling this gap in the History of Cinema. KEY WORDS: Rowland Brown – Classical Hollywood cinema – Pre-Code period (1930-1934) –Quick Millions (1931) – Hell’s Highway (1932) –Blood Money (1933) – gangster genre 1 Carmen Guiralt Gomar: Phd in History of Art from the University of Valencia, BA in Art History from the same university and a Masters in History and Aesthetics of Cinematography from the University of Valladolid.

TOWARDS A FEMINIST THEORY OF VIOLENCE MONICA PAt INTRODUCTION: THE CONTEXT-STORIES AND STATISTICS While feminism has pushed to show that there is little difference between the sexes save biology, "recorded criminal behavior had remained a stubborn exception to this rule."' However, over the last ten years, women have broken through the glass ceiling of violent criminal offending. Women are now carjack- ing. in San Francisco, 14- and 15-year-old girls carjacked a 57-year-old female driver, locked the driver in the trunk of the car, drove her around the city, and then, upon letting her out of the car, pointed a .38 caliber pistol at her head and threatened to kill her.2 The girls were also armed with pepper spray, gloves, duct 4 tape, and knives.3 Their motive was to impress a local street gang. Women are now committing aggravated assault: "In Concord, New Hamp- shire, four girls surround(ed) a 14-year-old girl as she (got) off a school bus at the mobile home park where she lived and beat her with baseball bats."'5 In Vir- ginia, "a beauty queen named Traci Lippard broke into the home of her rival '6 and attacked the girl's father with a hammer." t B.A., University of California at Santa Cruz, 1998; J.D., New York University, 2002 (magna cum laude, Order of the Coil).
