Description
A Genius for Murder: A Play in Three Acts by Steve Hodel is a dramatization of 1940s Hollywood Noir. Based on real people and events, the play explores the life of Dr. George Hill Hodel, who was a prime suspect in a series of Los Angeles murders, including the infamous Black Dahlia case. The story centers around a five-year period from 1945 to 1950, during which time Dr. Hodel's life became increasingly entwined with that of Elizabeth "Black Dahlia" Short and other high-profile figures of the time. As the investigation into her murder unfolded, Dr. Hodel was rounded up as one of the main suspects. Through a dramatization of newspaper articles, police files, transcripts, and courtroom documents, this play presents a complex and intriguing portrait of Dr. George Hill Hodel, a man with an extraordinary IQ and connections to Hollywood's elite.
