Lucille Ricksen -- Sacrificed to Hollywood

PostFri Jul 13, 2012 3:15 pm

Everyone -

I wanted to share the link to my blog about the tragic Lucille Ricksen.

http://michaelgankerich.wordpress.com/2012/07/13/lucille-ricksen-sacrificed-to-hollywood/

You'll also find some information there about my new book, Mae Murray: The Girl with the Bee-Stung Lips. It is set for a fall release.

Enjoy!

Thanks for posting your excellent piece on Lucille Ricksen. I think the notice of her marriage to Sydney Chaplin was some kind of typo in The Billboard, as he was married to Minnie Gilbert from about 1910 until her death in 1936.

I second the thanks. Are any of Lucille's films available?
