“Gehring remains supreme in film comedy scholarship” — Choice

“I find myself always drawn into Wes’ comedic research and storytelling by its insights into history, politics and sociology of the period explored. In that context, his gift is not only that of a researcher but also a “deeper understanding” of what leads a reader to explain, “Oh, so that’s how he (the subject) got that way.”

Steve Bell, former ABC News and Good Morning America anchor

“Gehring has a breezy and playful writing style. I found myself chuckling aloud at times. His prose is also, at times, wickedly cynical.”

Columbia University’s Hitchcock Annual (Gehring’s Hitchcock and Humor)

“Just about anything with film historian and media writer Wes D. Gehring’s name on it will be of quality.”
