GOING FOR BROKE-THE CHRISTA HELM STORY
A look at the fascinating life, brief career and tragic murder of 1970's starlet Christa Helm.
About Me
How I Discovered Christa Helm
In 1974 I clipped an ad from my local newspaper for a movie entitled LET'S GO FOR BROKE. Even though I never saw the film I always remembered the name of its star, Christa Helm. More than 30 years later I found that clipping and decided to track down that movie only to find out that it seemingly didn't exist and that Christa Helm had been murdered in 1977. The case was never solved. This led to my (eventually successful) efforts to find LET'S GO FOR BROKE and the ongoing efforts of myself and others to piece together the amazing life of Christa Helm.

Recently watched the 48 Hours episode on Christa Helm and am interested in reading your book. Do you have a publication date (or is it already available)? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAppreciate the interest, thanks. Unfortunately, there are too many missing pieces in the story to publish a traditional biography. Besides her death, whole big sections of her life remain unknown and I have neither the time, the health or the money to research them any fuller.
DeleteI may still attempt my revised idea to do a book on my efforts to DO a book but that, too, has had to be backburnered while I do what freelance work I can to keep myself and my family afloat in this economy.
That said, I get new leads and new info almost monthly on her life and her death and the latter continues to be passed on to the Cold Case department. The case is far from closed.
