English | ISBN: 0786423331 | 2005 | 440 pages | PDF | 30 MB
This work covers 840 intentional suicide cases initially reported in Daily Variety (the entertainment industry’s trade journal), but also drawing attention from mainstream news media. These cases are taken from the ranks of vaudeville, film, theatre, dance, music, literature (writers with direct connections to film), and other allied fields in the entertainment industry from 1905 through 2000. Accidentally self-inflicted deaths are omitted, except for a few controversial cases.
