excellent narration, Eva, thank you

such interesting short episodes of the girls' life, it's a nice listen. Dorothy is the cliché of the "younger sister". Somehow they remind me of my sister and me when we were young LOL Some parts could have happened to us as well.

No errors in either section, both PL ok.

Thanks !

I also spotted a teensy error in the summary. If the future MC could use this one, that'd be great.

An authorized biography of Lillian Gish, the renowned silent film star known in her heyday as the First Lady of American Cinema. Albert Bigelow Paine chronicles Gish's early life, her close relationship with her sister Dorothy, her rise in film as an actor with Biograph Studios and muse of D. W. Griffith, her short time as a contract actor with MGM, and her return to the stage in the advent of the talkies. Peppered throughout with intimate and amusing anecdotes, this is a must-read for film historians, silent film enthusiasts, and admirers of one of cinema's legendary talents. (Tomas Peter)

If it helps, I personally submitted this book to PG a long time ago to determine its copyright status and was told it's in the public domain.

Thanks! I forgot to mark “notify me” when I posted, so I wasn’t getting any reply notifications.

thanks David, beautifully narrated, especially the few parts "in character".

I loved the letter readings. All perfect and PL ok. Great job.
