Another related book is _A Private View_, the memoir of Irene
Mayer Selznick, daughter and wife of moguls, the first whose
studio made the previous clip, and the second whose studio
made "Gone With the Wind". She describes a privileged
life.
(By the way, though L.B. was born in Minsk, he grew up
in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.)
After the breakup of her marriage with Selznick, she
moves east where she becomes a successful
theatrical producer, bringing to fruition pieces like
"A Streetcar Named Desire" and "The Chalk
Garden." She brings Siobahn McKenna
to the United States for the second.
Okay, back to algorithm development.
