EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures Dorothy Arzner, an influential figure in the early days of Hollywood as one of the first women to make a name for herself as a film director. Taken in 1927 by renowned photographer Arnold Genthe, the image finds Dorothy seated with a confident posture, her hand casually resting on her hip, as she looks away from the camera. Dorothy's fashionable attire, with its elegant dress and intricate detailing, is a testament to the fashionable trends of the 1920s. The image was captured on nitrate negative film, a common medium for still photography during this era. Dorothy Arzner's groundbreaking career in the film industry began in the 1910s as an assistant editor and progressed to writing, producing, and eventually directing films. She is best known for her work during the 1930s and 1940s, including the critically acclaimed films "Christine" and "Merrily We Go to Hell." This portrait, taken during the height of her success, offers a glimpse into the life of a trailblazing woman in the male-dominated world of Hollywood.
