Additional Details

Other Works:
(Novel) "Today is Tonight" Written sometime around 1934, it wasn't published until 1965 (paperback by Dell Publishing). She claimed that the story came to her almost complete in a dream, and that she felt compelled to write it. Yet, after completing the manuscript, she didn't publish it. (It's possible that MGM quashed her efforts to publish it to preserve her screen image as a dumb, sexy blonde.) After the death of Harlow's mother, the manuscript passed into the posession of Jean's friend, Ruth Hamp, who published it as a counterpoint to the two exploitive "Harlow" films released that year. more
