Warning: This podcast contains graphic detail of murder. In post-war Hollywood, the film industry had a reputation for its dark side as much as anything happening on the big screen. So when Elizabeth Short was dramatically - and cinematically - murdered in Hollywood, the press called her the Black Dahlia and made a sensation out of her. Who was the real woman behind the terrifying headlines? What did she have to do with the film industry? And why was no one ever caught? Joining Kate today is the fantastic historian and author William Mann, to take us back to post-war Hollywood. This episode was edited by Hannah Feodorov. The producer was Stuart Beckwith. The senior producer was Freddy Chick.
