Description

It might seem to be a lurid Hollywood tale . . . but is it really a Philadelphia theater story?

Here's our take on the life and times of the actress Diana Barrymore, eldest daughter of John Barrymore - from her privileged beginnings, through her successes on stage, her failures in filmdom . . to her sad and sordid end. 

But is she really just another celebrity cautionary tale? There's more to her story than got told in the tabloids.

As you listen, for a selection of photos of Diana, and other fascinating images about the events we discuss in this episode, GO HERE.
