Carole Lombard, the Hoosier Tornado (Indiana Biography Series)
Wes D. Gehring
Published by the Indiana Historical Society Press
CLICK HERE to purchase.Carole Lombard (1908-1942) was the undisputed queen of screwball comedy in the 1930s. She had a dynamic personality and was nicknamed "The Hoosier Tornado." Lombard, who often doubled as an uncredited producer, loved all things cinematic. A keen intelligence and show-biz savvy defined her as much as her boundless energy.
She enthralled audiences in such films as Twentieth Century, My Man Godfrey, Nothing Scared, and To Be or Not to Be.
Her offscreen romance with and eventual marriage to the King of Hollywood, Clark Gable, was the stuff of dreams. Her tragic death in a plane crash at age 33 saddened the world.
Being a huge fan of Carole Lombard, I was naturally eager to read about her life. Wes Gehring's extensive research shows in this inaugural volume in the Indiana Historical Society Press's Indiana Biography series. Gehring, a noted authority on film comedy, has a witty and warm writing style and his affection for Ms. Lombard is apparent in this terrific tribute to the "Profane Angel." He details Lombard's life and times, and dishes some delicious backstage gossip. This books is a must-read for any classic film fan.
