En 1972, Mae West rencontre David Johnson, un universitaire qui vient d'écrire sa thèse sur l'impact qu'a eu l'actrice sur la société culturelle américaine. L'homme parle d'un véritable choc que personne d'autre qu'elle pouvait provoquer. En quelques semaines, la blonde sex symbole et le jeune homme vont lier une amitié fusionnelle. Johnson devient le colocataire de son idole. Au milieu des années 70, Mae West apprend la mort prématurée de son ami. David Johnson a été frappé de plein fouet par une camionnette qui a prit la fuite. Si cette mort, tragique, peut avoir les allures d'un accident, il est en tout autre. Que se cache-t-il derrière la mort du plus grand fan de Mae West ?  

En 1958, la blonde superstar, Jayne Mansfield épouse Mickey Hargitay, un Monsieur Univers. Ensemble, ils formeront le couple idéal du rêve américain. Pendant plusieurs années, les époux feront la première page des journaux et magazines partout à travers le monde. Leur relation est épiée jusqu'aux moindres détails. Pour l'actrice, c'est une bonne chose. Sa célébrité a été entièrement fabriquée par la publicité et les éclats médiatiques. Pour le bodybuilder, c'est un problème. En 1964, quelques mois après la naissance de leur troisième enfant, ils se séparent dans un ultime coup médiatique...

This Minisode is the extended interview with Mandi Shepp from our Lily Dale episode. In this wpisode you'll hear more about the history and culture of Lily Dale, learn which old Hollywood actress would frequent Lily Dale and learn more about what makes Lily Dale so unique.

Amanda M. “Mandi” Shepp received her MLS in Library & Information Science in 2013 from the
State University of New York at Buffalo. From 2014 - 2018, she worked for the Lily Dale
Assembly as the first professional Librarian of the Marion H. Skidmore Library, a special
collections and rare books facility which houses the largest private library collection of
Spiritualist and Occult books in the world, and became the Library Director in 2016. In 2017
Mandi was presented with the WNYLRC Excellence in Library Service Award for her role in
completely revitalizing the library and bringing it up to modern academic standards. In 2018,
she transitioned to The State University of New York at Fredonia’s Daniel A. Reed Library
Special Collections & Archives Division where she currently serves as the Coordinator of
Special Collections & Archives.

In addition to her professional duties, Mandi presents and writes on topics related to collections
and historical subjects within the realms of Freethought, Spiritualism, and the Occult; she also
serves as the co-chair of the Harvest Moon Cemetery Tours planning committee. When she’s
not elbow-deep in materials from a bygone era, Mandi can be found homebrewing,
experimenting in the kitchen, and enjoying life with her happy-go-lucky husband, Chris, and
enormous Norwegian Forest Cats, Kujira and Bakemono.

Toute sa carrière, Mae West sera confrontée à la censure. Que ce soit au grand écran ou sur les planches des théâtres, l'actrice ne peut échapper aux hommes des bonnes mœurs. Pendant plus de soixante ans, Mae verra ses projets parfois modifiés, voyant l'essence même de ses idées complètements bafouées, parfois même annulés. Quels étaient ces projets si susceptibles de heurter le public américain ?

Bien avant les grands mouvements féministes, il y a eu Mae West. Mae West était l'actrice la plus scandaleuse de son époque. Elle n'avait pas peur d'aborder les enjeux entourant la vie des femmes et abordait sans gêne la sexualité.
