Eastern European Jewish immigrants are often credited with building a film industry during the first decade of the twentieth century that they dominated by the 1920s. In this study, Steven Carr reconceptualizes Jewish involvement in Hollywood by examining prevalent attitudes towards Jews among American audiences. Analogous to the Jewish Question of the nineteenth century, which was concerned with the full participation of Jews within public life, the Hollywood Question of the 1920s, 30s, and 40s addressed the Jewish population within mass media. This study reveals the powerful set of assumptions concerning ethnicity and media influence as related to the role of the Jew in the motion picture industry.Cambridge Studies in the history of mass communication.Hollywood & Anti-SemitismMotion picture industryCaliforniaLos AngelesHistory20th centuryJews in the motion picture industryUnited StatesAntisemitismUnited StatesMotion picture industryHistoryJews in the motion picture industryAntisemitism384/.8/089924073Carr Steven Alan1964-1530758UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910780085603321Hollywood and anti-semitism3776035UNINA
