Welcome to Lana Turner Online!
Gosh! I can't believe it's already been a year since I started this project. It's been a ball and I couldn't have done it without all of the wonderful people who have sent me videos, photographs, feedback, film reviews and recollections. I thank you all and remind you that this site is not only a valentine to Lana but to her fans as well.
2006 will feature fewer but more substantial updates, rewrites of some of the film reviews and more research. I am just getting started!
