Authors: Boyd Magers and Michael G. Fitzgerald

 

From the Publisher:
This work features interviews with 51 leading ladies who starred in B-westerns, A-westerns, and television westerns. They all talk candidly about their careers and the many difficulties they faced. Conditions were often severe, locations were often harsh, and pay was often minimal. The actresses were sometimes the only females on location and they had to provide their own wardrobe and do their own make-up, as well as discourage the advances of overly affectionate co-stars. Despite these difficulties, most of the women interviewed agree that they had fun.

 

Claudia Barrett, Virginia Carroll, Francis Dee, Lisa Gaye, Marie Harmon, Kathleen Hughes, Linda Johnson, Ruta Lee, Colleen Miller, Gigi Perreau, Ann Rutherford, Ruth Terry, and June Vincent are among the 51 actresses interviewed.
