Sandburg’s Film Reviews 
and Essays, 1920-1928

Ed. By Arnie Bernstein

2000, Soft Cover, 380 pages

Over the course of his long and distinguished career Carl Sandburg earned two Pulitzer prizes, one for poetry and one for biography, but it comes as a surprise to many that during the 1920s this noted American writer was also a respected newspaper film critic. At a time when movies were still considered light entertainment by most newspapers, the Chicago Daily News gave Sandburg a unique forum to express his views on the burgeoning film arts.
