Your Saturday evening needs Dr. Wes Gehring in
#Paris. In 1989, Sorbonne Université celebrated the 100th anniversary of Charlie Chaplin's birth. Dr. Gehring was invited to give a presentation during the event because of his 1986 book "Charlie Chaplin: A Bio-Bibliography." ⠀
⠀
Dr. Gehring is the author of over 40 film-related books, including recent biographies of James Dean, Red Skelton, Steve McQueen, and Carole Lombard. Gehring has a doctorate in
#filmstudies from the University of Iowa, where he was also a member of the undergraduate Iowa Writers' Workshop. ⠀
⠀
His most recent book, published by McFarland Press in 2021, is "Charlie Chaplin and a Woman of Paris." A biography of
#Hoosier born director/producer/actor Sydney Pollack will be published by the indianahistory Press sometime in late summer 2022.⠀
