SANDRA SHEVEY is a film historian who has been pioneering film tourism in London for the past 20 years. Sandra interviewed director Alfred Hitchcock in Hollywood in 1972 and has been lecturing about his life and his work in London at the National Portrait Gallery, the Barbican Cinema and the Westminster reference library where she curated an exhibition (with 2 talks) about `Alfred Hitchcock`s Lond
on Odyssey`. Two talks were about Hitchcock motifs of eating/cannibalism and identity. Sandra`s walks are like nothing you`ve ever experienced because they are tutorials on the streets. Sandra has letters from authors Winston Graham and screenwriters Even Hunter and Jay Presson Allen about working with Hitchcock. She has set designs from Henry Bumstead and others and also has some hand painted Xmas cards from Bummy sent to Sandra for many years prior to his death. Sandra has talked to many of Hitchcock`s collaborators including Roy Baker (`The Lady Vanishes`) who was snubbed by Hitchcock when he came to Hollywood to make `Don`t Bother to Knock` with Marilyn Monroe. Jack Cardiff, Hugh Stewart, Gil Taylor and many others have talked to Sandra about Hitchcock and Sandra hopes to get a publisher to finance a book about the director.
