I am very pleased to endorse and support the working movie project of MABEL NORMAND. Indeed, I am extremely impressed with the idea of Andrea M Clarke to bring the story of my great-aunt, Mabel Normand’s Life and Career to Truthful REALITY in a Millennium era Motion Picture. 


Andrea's telling the story of MABEL NORMAND, a woman of many “First’s” working in a man’s world as an early female  pioneer of motion pictures, is an enormous gesture of finally giving recognition of Normand’s accomplishments and achievements in pioneering and promoting the founding of the Art of “Making Movies” .. bringing through Mabel’s awesome Talent,Beauty and Laughter to millions in a desperate time of world despair and unrest. 


Wishing the “Best O’Luck” to Andrea and my distant cousin Jeanne Marie Normand, and the entire cast in the same vein in which Mary Pickford publicly wrote to Mabel on her return to making pictures in 1926!

During one of my usual cosmic jam sessions with the brilliant Filmmaker

Andrea M. Clarke — where we try to solve the mysteries of the Universe—

Mabel Normand suddenly stole the spotlight.


Andrea was instantly smitten with Mabel’s wild, dazzling, and gutsy life story. Next thing I know, she’s off and running, turning Mabel’s story into her eighth film project.


I couldn’t be more thrilled that my extraordinary cousin’s extraordinary life is heading to the big screen—finally giving Mabel her rightful place in history.


Forget the nasty rumors and character assassinations of the past; Mabel was a powerhouse, a comedic genius, and the first woman to own a production company in Hollywood.


Mabel blazed a trail so future women in film could walk through the doors she kicked open.


At long last, Mabel’s true story gets its close-up—and I couldn’t be more thrilled to help roll the cameras on honoring this trailblazing woman’s incredible life.


~ Dr. Jeanne Marie Normand
