Book signing by Victoria Price!
Vincent Price was more than a horror film legend, with highly refined taste and diverse talents that epitomize the classic definition of a Renaissance man. The medium of television allowed the actor to explore roles of additional dramatic depth and share a personal side steeped in deep knowledge of fine arts and culinary arts, punctuated by a disarming sense of humor.
Join us for a screening of an eclectic mix of television, from a tour of his L.A. home to a sci-fi episode of Rod Serling’s “Night Gallery” to daytime talk shows. The program was inspired by the research paper “The Ideology of Liveness, Theatricality, and the Star Persona: Vincent Price on Television,” written by archivist Gabz Norte (UCLA M.L.I.S., 2024).
In person: Q&A with Victoria Price, daughter of Vincent Price and author of “Vincent Price: A Daughter's Biography,” moderated by archivist Gabz Norte. Price will sign copies of the book before the screening, beginning at 6:30 p.m.
Free admission! Details: ucla.in/4n0vNiy
Special thanks to our community partners: UCLA Alumni Association, UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television.
