About this book

I have called William Wadsworth Hodkinson "the Man Who Invented Hollywood" knowing that a more correct title would be - the Man Who Invented the Business of Hollywood. Remembered today as the founder of Paramount Pictures W. W. Hodkinsons accomplishments would place him among those individuals who have had the deepest influence on the development of the movie industry. Practically single-handedly W. W. Hodkinson changed the way movies were produced distributed and exhibited. His reforms during the early days of the film industry provided the prototype for all major Hollywood studios.
