      I loved that photo you had of her on a dig. That looks like an early expedition, possibly in the 1930s? Also, where did you get that lovely quote from her about her dream of having a library dedicated to religious symbolism? You are right, there are many things yet to be discovered about that fabulous lady and your attention to her was well crafted. I am soon to come out with another book, a compendium of Rambova material that I was not able to publish in my biography of her back in 1991.
      All best wishes,
      Michael Morris

  5. My mother and father knew George B. Wehner well. In fact, they met at a seance at Wehner’s house in February 1941. My father was living in Wehner’s house at the time, employed as the orchestrator of his upcoming Piano concerto, which was premiered in August of the same year. I found your summary of his life very helpful.

    LOVE reading all of the interesting articles and pictures you post here on Rudolph Valentino. There are very few sites out there for a fan to go. I am so glad this blog is here!

  7. Thank you for your dedication and consistent posting to this blog. I just discovered Valentino as part of the family history project where I am learning what it meant to be an Italian immigrant and an Italian-American during the early 20th century. Rudy’s experiences were very typical of the fear and misunderstanding caused by the great wave of immigrants from Southern Italy beginning in the late 19th century. Thanks to the large collection of news articles you have curated, I now can see that even at the higher levels of society some of his peers and the press were just as prejudiced. You have created a valuable resource and I encourage you to continue your work.

    Thank you for this blog! This past July (2020), out of the blue I suddenly felt a strong connection to Rudolph Valentino. Since then I have immersed myself in his story, the turn of the century, and the immigration experience. I have seen the patterns in his life that correspond to my own family’s history. I an beginning to write about this connection. As a researcher myself who find discrepancies in stories about his life in so many places, I appreciate the work you have compiled!

    my great grandmother was Flora Campbell Peters. She was Frank E Campbell sister and partner and took care of Rudy. She made a point to tell me several times that he was never substituted with a dummy in his wake. Rioters ripped off his face she worked all night with horse hair straw wax and stove black.

    Good afternoon. This is Inés, from Argentina. In my opinion, I don’t have any experience with blogs. I was never interested in looking for a specific one. In this case, it was by chance that I found Rodolfo Valentino’s blog, as I was interested in finding information about him. I am a fan of silent films, the history and evolution of cinema, especially classic films. Finding this blog was a kind of miracle, as the information is very well expressed, with surprising facts and a vision of classic cinema, to which is added information about notable figures in Valentino’s life and those around him, something that is not often seen today. I want to highlight one of the first posts on this blog, which mentions Natacha Rambova. I loved the author of this site for including the role of women in the 1920s and for naming a woman who, unfortunately, was somewhat overshadowed (as I didn’t know much about this incredible woman), but who knew how to add her to this page and highlight her beautiful career. Definitely an underrated woman. I am grateful that the years continue to pass and the blogs continue to be published. I understand that it expires in 2031. I hope another blog is created, or I will be in crisis. I love reading this. Very good work.

    • Thank you 🙏 your words of support are truly appreciated. This blog has been a labour of love and discovery for many years. However, there comes a time when the only writer who is getting older & rising costs. It’s been a nice run so enjoy what is here in the meantime.❤️

        It’s a big mistake that I didn’t discover it in 2014, when it was eight years old. I’m going to try to enjoy what’s left. There will be tears in my eyes. Thank you very much for your creation.
