KARIE BIBLE -- Born a heterochromatic baby (put down the medical
reference book-it means she's got two different colored eyes) with the
last name "Bible" on Halloween night, Karie was destined to be nothing
if not unique. Her passion for history and Hollywood's past led her to
starting a cemetery tour in 2002 under the guidance of acclaimed
historian Marc Wanamaker. In keeping with her love of living history,
she gives the tour in vintage gowns from her collection that spans the
1920s through the 1950s.
Karie has lectured at LA's Silent Movie Theatre, The Old Town Music
Hall, The Queen Mary and is also the currently reigning "Lady in
Black" to honor silent film star Rudolph Valentino. She is actively
involved as a volunteer with the American Cinematheque and the Los
Angeles Conservancy and is a member of the Hollywood Heritage and the
Art Deco Society.
She recently appeared in a segment called "Hollywood Hideaways" on
Turner Classic Movies.
