In this interview, Barbara and I discuss Miss Del Rio, telling Dolores Del Rio's story, weaving history into her story and all the details she couldn't include, Charlie Chaplin, the Golden Age of Hollywood, the process for coming up with the title and cover, and much more.
Barbara's recommended reads are:

Returning from Silence by Michele Sarde

Dream in a Suitcase by Domnica Radulescu

Beyond the Time of Words by Marjorie Agosin

L.A. Weather by Maria Amparo Escandon
