IJPC Book-signing and Presentation
Archival Research CenterSecond Floor,<br>Doheny Memorial Library<br>University of Southern California, 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Please join us March 27 for a book-signing and a presentation by Joe Saltzman, author of Frank Capra and the Image of the Journalist in American Film, the first book published by the Norman Lear Center Press, as he looks at the colorful gallery of journalists created by director Capra and his writers, who were responsible for much of what Americans thought they knew about their newsgatherers in the 20th century. Saltzman shows how the Capra films influenced the publics perception of who and what journalists are all about, an influence that continues to this day.
