Keep Your Head Down is a memoir written by Walter Bernstein, an American screenwriter and author. The book chronicles Bernstein's life as a young man during the McCarthy era, where he was blacklisted from the film industry due to his alleged communist sympathies. Bernstein describes the fear and paranoia that permeated American society during this time, as well as the personal toll that the blacklisting had on his career and relationships. Despite the setbacks, Bernstein continued to write under pseudonyms and eventually returned to Hollywood in the 1960s. The book provides a unique perspective on a dark period in American history and offers insight into the resilience of those who were targeted by McCarthyism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
