"This ambitious and impressive edited collection, with contributions from some of the field's most exciting scholars, is a much-needed feminist intervention into scholarship around the so-called 1970s Hollywood Renaissance. The essays place the women creators and collaboratorsand vitally, their laborback to the center of discussion where they belong. A stimulating and provocative read." Julie Turnock, author of The Empire of Effects: Industrial Light and Magic and the Rendering of Realism "A major disruption of conventional narratives about New Hollywood in the 1970s, this collection demonstrates how essential women were to all levels of filmmaking and film culture during a period of fundamental transformation and transition." Shelley Stamp, author of Lois Weber in Early Hollywood and Movie-Struck Girls "Women and New Hollywood provides the much-needed and long-awaited intervention on 1970s American movie industry mythologies, paying tribute to those whose talents, contributions, and perseverance were until now un(der)appreciated and, in so doing, modeling feminist media historiography at its finest."
