Rebecca Reynolds and her husband, Jim Carpenter are filmmakers from Leland, Michigan. About two years ago, Rebecca had a conversation with a friend in Los Angeles. Together, they came up with the concept for a true crime and Hollywood show.

“We just started putting some ideas together, and it developed into a show— we just didn’t know what kind of show,” Rebecca says.

Instead of a documentary film, or maybe a TV mini series, the couple decided to create a podcast called, Hollywood and Crime.

The podcast centers around one of the most famous cold cases in California— the murder of 22 year-old woman named Elizabeth Short, who’s better known as the Black Dahlia.
