Billboards featuring this mysterious blonde woman started popping up all over Los Angeles back in the early 80's. Hundreds of them! Each one simply said "Angelyne" and had a phone number. Buy nobody knew who she was, what the billboards were for or who was funding them.
For decades this mystery has been going on and she has become a bit of a "famous" Hollywood character in the meantime. Shockingly though, she has managed to completely hide her true identity the whole time. Many have tried to figure out who she was but they all failed. That was until August 2017 when an anonymous amateur genealogist approached a writer from the Hollywood Reporter with an envelope full of info that appears to have cracked the case.
We chat with the man who broke the story, Gary Baum from the Hollywood Reporter. We also talk to Ajay Sahgal- a writer who did a story about Angelyne back in the 90's, Hollywood character Dennis Woodruff and Katherine Saltzberg-the daughter of the man we now now was funding these billboards.
It's a fun little investigative episode that examines one of the most interesting Hollywood mysteries of all time!
