Authors Ira M. Resnick and Raissa Bretaña join the Academy Museum for a book signing and conversation to discuss their new book Moxie: The Daring Women of Classic Hollywood, which profiles 15 leading ladies during the studio system, a period from the 1920s to the 1950s when a small number of companies dominated the production and distribution of films in America.

The book is comprised of more than two hundred film stills, publicity photos, and lobby cards from the collection of Ira M. Resnick―many published here for the first time. Together, these captivating images reveal how the stars of the Golden Age used pose and performance, fashion and glamour to shape their images both onscreen and off.

Conversation: 12-1pm

Book Signing: 1:15-2pm

Location: Sidney Poitier Grand Lobby
