Despite her image as a flapper, Anita Loos was a hardworking, rather shy woman who sought recognition as a writer. This is the view presented by this biography which recounts her life at the film studios, hired by D.W.Griffith, writing scripts for Fairbanks and Pickford, Harlow and William Randolph Hearst.

One review of Carey's biog of Loos calls the writing "lackluster and tedious." I would concur. How is it possible not to get this woman's personality onto the page--but Carey manages. Also, Carey may know the facts of Loos's life, but he doesn't show much knowledge or interest in the period--which is a crime.
A positive: the book is filled with wonderful photos.
A big negative: no notes, no bibliography, no index. ( )
