520    Mallory O'Meara uncovers the life and work of Milicent 
       Patrick, one of Disney's first female animators and the 
       only woman in history to create one of Hollywood's classic
       movie monsters. O'Meara discovered that Patrick's 
       contribution had been claimed by a jealous male colleague,
       and she soon after had disappeared from film history. 
       O'Meara set out to right the wrong, and in the process 
       discovered the full, fascinating story of an ambitious, 
       artistic woman ahead of her time. 
520    The 1954 motion picture Creature from the Black Lagoon 
       featured a monster designed by a woman, Milicent Patrick. 
       But Patrick's contribution was claimed by a jealous male 
       colleague, her career was cut short, and she soon after 
       disappeared from film history. Working in the horror film 
       industry, O'Meara set out to right the wrong and in the 
       process discovered the full, fascinating story of an 
       ambitious, artistic woman ahead of her time. Patrick began
       her career as one of Disney's first female animators, and 
       O'Meara establishes Patrick in her rightful place in film 
       history while calling out a Hollywood culture where little
       has changed. -- adapted from jacket
