The primal image of the black-caped vampire Dracula has become an indelible fixture of the modern imagination. It's recognition factor rivals, in its own perverse way, the familiarity of Santa Claus. In this critically acclaimed excursion through the life of a cultural icon, David Skal maps out the archetypal vampire's relentless trajectory from Victorian literary oddity to movie idol to cultural commodity, digging through the populist veneer to reveal what the prince of darkness says about us all.

As studio bosses, directors, and actors, Jews have been heavily involved in film history and vitally involved in all aspects of film production. Yet Jewish characters have been represented onscreen in stereotypical and disturbing ways, while Jews have also helped to produce some of the most troubling stereotypes of people of color in Hollywood film history. In Hollywood's Chosen People, leading scholars consider the complex relationship between Jews and the film industry.

Story0
The "Aspiring Hollywood" idea developed while I was teaching screenwriting at UCLA Extension. I saw the need for a forum that provided advice to emerging filmmakers and artists from other entertainment industry sectors. I also wanted to offer a safe place for emerging artists where they could talk about their desires and ambitions and showcase projects. "Before the Glitz and Glamour." Similarly, I wanted to give established industry professionals an opportunity to talk about their journey to success and offer advice to the new generation of filmmakers and artists across the board.
