Author, film expert, and world traveler Robin Holabird writes regularly about films and their locations, with her weekly program airing on Reno’s NPR affiliate KUNR at 88.7 FM every Friday. She also provides film commentary for Rotten Tomatoes. Holabird’s first book, Elvis, Marilyn and the Space Aliens, (University of Nevada Press) explores how movies and television programs affect Nevada’s public image.
