Review of "American Experience - Sister Aimee"

(5 out of 5 stars)
"I first came the story of Sister Aimee during the 1960's when as a 13 year boy I got a copy of "American Heritage's" history of the 20's and 30's. The book mentioned nothing about her "relations" with her mother and just dealt with the scandal about her disappearance in 1926.
The American Experience episode on Sister Aimee gives a much more nuanced/balanced portrait of her however. Showing the utter two-faced quality of the Los Angeles political power structure in thier efforts to smear her reputation. This episode gives more information about her than many books do."
