I'm not writing much nonfiction these days because I'm busy with writing novels and teaching classes, but today is the birthday of Peggie Castle so I thought I'd post a link to the 2013 article I wrote about her for NOIR CITY magazine. The Girl They Loved To Kill: The Many Deaths of Peggie Castle is a deep dive into the haunting life and tragic career of an actress that too few people remember today. I got more than a little obsessed with Peggie when I wrote this piece, so if it reads like something of a love letter...well, that's what happens when you spend your time chasing beautiful shadows in the dark.
