#51 "Girl In Every Town" Part 2 -The Letters

Diary Discoveries

In this episode we read and discuss the letters between Charles and Dorothy as they start their life together in 1920 -1921. He has recently been divorced in the very public "Girl In Every Town" divorce case and Dorothy, 21 years his junior, is challenged early on by his absence and her new domestic situation. 100 letters were written between them in the course of a year. In this collection, 5 of the letters were unopened. More than half are on hotel stationary so we can track his whereabouts as he is travelling for business. You will hear the story of their relationship as they navigate rumors, family matters, questionable judgement, and loneliness while apart from each other. We also discuss a Hollywood scandal and some fantastic performances at a state fair, and we open one of the letters-- sealed since 1921.
