It was an honour to contribute to and be quoted in this biography of Vera Miles by author Christopher McKittrick! 📚

Spending time discussing Vera with Chris was such a delight & it is wonderful to have been a small part of shining a light on a true star! ✨

In June I curated my own Hitchcock Festival-The Apartment Trilogy-with Storyhouse Chester! We screened ROPE, DIAL M FOR MURDER & REAR WINDOW over a suspenseful weekend! I will never forget watching ROPE with an audience-such a memorable experience!
