About the site
This is perhaps the third or forth version of this site, The last version vanished for unexplainable reasons. The site was never finished, but nevertheless I think there should be a web presence dedicated to Colleen, She was an important actress and trend-setter who not only helped establish both the influence of Hollywood over the imagination of America and the world, but also made it possible for a young woman to live an independent life without it being viewed as a threat to society.
My book on Colleen, Colleen Moore; A Biography of the Silent Film Star, was published in 2014. As most of the book came directly from earlier versions of the Colleen Moore Project, I think it's only fitting I reconstruct this new site using materials and photos from the book.
