David Stenn's writing-producing television credits span from Hill Street Blues to Boardwalk Empire and include 21 Jump Street, Beverly Hills 90210 and The L Word. His first biography, Clara Bow: Runnin' Wild, was edited by Jacqueline Onassis and became a national bestseller. It was followed by Bombshell: The Life and Death of Jean Harlow (also edited by Onassis), which The New York Times cited as one of the year's Notable Books. “It Happened One Night…At M-G-M,” Stenn’s discovery for Vanity Fair of Hollywood’s best-suppressed scandal, brought vindication to rape survivor Patricia Douglas after sixty-six years in hiding; Stenn then adapted it into the documentary film GIRL 27. He is a passionate supporter of film preservation who serves on the Film Committee of the Museum of Modern Art in New York and Board of Directors at the UCLA Film & Television Archive in Los Angeles.
