In Starring Joan Crawford: The Films, the Fantasy, and the Modern Relevance of a Silver Screen Icon, author and screenwriter Samuel Garza Bernstein examines what made the star from Hollywood’s Golden Age a force of feminist self-determination for women today.

Covering her five-decade career, Garza Bernstein reveals how Crawford molded and remolded her image while staying true to herself.
