Lights! Camera! Action! Missourians have contributed to the history of cinema since the earliest days of movie making. In this program, Dr. Sarah S. Jones of the Missouri State Museum will celebrate the lives of Missouri women in the film industry, from the era of silent movies through mid-20th century. She will examine these heroines of entertainment and their connections to our state, along with their cinematic work and their extraordinary lives. The Capitol’s Hall of Famous Missourians includes three such women: Josephine Baker, Ginger Rogers and Betty Grable.
