(I can't believe Eve Golden's been duped into being here for TWO weekends! Wow. Did someone slip her a mickey or did we really get THIS lucky so early in the year?!!) You seem to mistake me for someone with a life . Oh, back in my sleek Ina Claire days, I lived in nightclubs and at cocktail parties...

Dear Eve, You mentioned in the announcements thread that you would like to do a book on Mae Murray. One of our best posters has written quite a bit about her, and as a a result, made her much more well known to all of us. Any chance a book may happen about Mae? Thanks so much for being here Nancy H...

I've not read your book on Jean Harlow but I'm a big fan of hers. Do you have a favorite Harlow film from all the ones you viewed? Do you have a favorite costar? It seems to me she just went so well with Gable, Tracy, Powell, Beery and that's just the men. Do you think she could have found happines...

Ms Golden, Thank you for joining us at the Oasis. Do you see any glimmer of hope that one day someone will find footage of Theda Bara's Cleopatra ? Are there existing recordings of Ms. Bara's radio appearances from the late 1930's? Have you heard them? That is so frustrating. When I started that bo...

Well, you acomplished it for me writing about Theda Bara. I was taken back to her time, it was a wonderful journey. Would you ever consider writing a biography of a living person or helping them ghost write a biography? What are your earliest memories of the movies? Do you ever find people relate H...

In your profile of Pola Negri . . . In your opinion, are the available films that she did with Lubitsch worth seeking out? Which would you rate as the best? Btw, thanks to the witty asides that you sprinkle throughout your prose, such as your comment that one of Miss Negri 's films at Paramount, &q...

Hello Eve - is there any any existing film at all of Vernon & Irene Castle that you might have come across during your research? Or are there only film stills of their routines? I gather that they were hugely popular at that time as a result of extensive touring around the country? Did other me...

Who are your favorite movie stars and film genre? . . . I envy you the escapes to the past by doing the research. As someone with no wriring experience I think it would be idyllic but is there a pressure when you are doing research or are you allowed to get as engrossed as you like . . . Once a boo...

As the ultimate 'vamp' did Theda Bara actually become a victim of her own screen image? Thanks, Joe I think she did, but maybe no more than Mary Pickford, Mae West, and lots of others did, too. She actually made a lot of non-vamp films, but it was the vamping that brought in the customers and made ...

I noticed that you sometimes take as long as ten years to research a topic that you write about. Could you please describe how you became interested in such diverse topics, ranging from American theatrical history such as Ann Held and the Castles to Theda Bara to Kay Kendall ? How do you choose you...
