Monitoring Hollywood
This section of the project highlights the ways in which the government monitored Hollywood and the production of films. In this era, the government played a larger role than ever in monitoring what Americans saw and heard at the movies.
The following pages will discuss the actions of the House Un-American Activities Committee, the "Hollywood Ten", and how these groups shaped the media coming out of Hollywood beginning in the 1930s and 1940s.
In addition, there is a page devoted to the case study of one member of the Hollywood Ten, Dalton Trumbo. Including his specific experience helps contextualize how blacklisting affected the careers of those in Hollywood and how life went on after being formally ousted from the film making community.
