The Shadow [antikvár]

Acknowiedg mentsMost of these words belong to David Koepp, though I've also borrowed a phrase here and there from some of the almost three hundred Shadow novels written by Walter Gibson throughout the thirties and forties. I've tried to be faithful to both visions.First and foremost, thanks to my editor, Susan Randol. We were both under the gun, and we made it happen.And a tip of the slouch hat to those at Bregman/Baer Productions and Universal Studios, who helped me get a sense of what the movie will look like, including Dee Dee, Myron, and David, for showing me the gowns and suits; John Zemansky, for letting me heft the magnums; and Joe Nemec, for the notes and drawings, and for the tour of Shadow locations on the back lot.None of it could have happened without the help of Leona Nevler, of Ivy Books; John Polwrek, of Universal Studios; and Charles O. Glenn, of Bregman/Baer Productions, who opened many a door. And special thanks to Lee Herschman, who went way out of her way.I am also indebted to Michael Riccardelli, for providing me with Shadow comics galore; to Guy Guden, whose Who Knows What Evil has recently been published by Graven Images; and to Brian Daley, Karen-Ann, Carmen, Carlos, and Jake, for their unfailing support.
