The Wampas baby stars
a biographical dictionary, 1922-1934
by Roy Liebman
"For young actresses in the 1920s and 1930s, being selected as a Wampas Baby Star was a prestigious honor which meant much recognition and publicity. Of the nearly 150 actresses chosen, a few such as Ginger Rogers and Joan Crawford went on to superstardom, some enjoyed modest success, while others failed to shine. This book offers full biographical details on every Wampas Baby Star, tracing their careers and listing the films in which they appeared.
A year-by-year section lists each year's stars and alternates. The work also lists Wampas rivals and successors, dropouts, presidents, and superlatives (who was tallest? Shortest? Oldest at time of selection?)."--BOOK JACKET.
