This week on Salt Lake Dirt, I'm excited to welcome author Will Sloan to discuss his new book, Ed Wood: Made in Hollywood USA. Will talks about the life and work of Ed Wood, the cult filmmaker often dubbed the "worst director of all time." We explore how Will first came across Ed Wood's films and what inspired him to write this comprehensive examination of Wood's unique artistic vision.
Will shares anecdotes from his childhood that led to a lifelong fascination with Ed Wood, including his early experiences watching Plan 9 from Outer Space. We delve into the complexities of Wood's character, his passion for filmmaking, and the intriguing mix of personalities that populated his films.
Thanks for listening!
