520 1 $a"Dark-eyed and distant, Alma Rubens was one of the first female film stars. But before the 1920s were over her career had been destroyed by cocaine abuse. She died in 1931 at age 33 - a Hollywood beauty, a casualty of Hollywood "snow." She was a versatile actress, with a talent ahead of its time with her gentle and subtle expressions." "This book contains Rubens's autobiography, a text titled This Bright World Again that was serialized in newspapers in 1931. Ghost-written or not or somewhere in between, this long-forgotten document deals with Rubens's addiction and despair. A new biography of Rubens takes the reader from her birth in San Francisco through an impoverished upbringing, three short-lived marriages, her career in pictures for Triangle Film, Cosmopolitan, Fox and other companies - and hospital stays, violence and deception. A comprehensive filmography lists her credits from 1913 to 1929."--BOOK JACKET.
