Autorenporträt
Blonde, six feet tall, and 16 years old, Aloha Wanderwell (1906-96) was a student at a convent school in France when she answered an ad calling for a "good looking, brainy young woman" to join a round-the-world expedition led by a charismatic entrepreneur. Hired as mechanic, Aloha became the face of the expedition's documentary films; known as the Amelia Earhart of the open road, she developed into a filmmaker in her own right, directing and appearing in 11 films, mostly in the 1920s and 30s.
