Biographical/Historical Note The following is a video clip from an oral history interview with Val Holley. "I was in my first year of law school and this was in the spring of 1979 and I should have been studying for my final in the subject of real property, which of all the subjects in law school was for me one of the most boring. So, I was in the Salt Lake City Public Library and I should have been studying, but I was back in the biography shelves thumbing through just looking at the spines looking at the dust jackets of some of the biographies and I didn't know who James Dean was. Most people do know who he was by the time they're in their 20s, but I remember I had seen the movie East of Eden in high school, we must have been studying John Steinbeck because when I was a junior at Weber High they showed East of Eden and there was James Dean and he was extremely captivating. I thought, 'Well, I know who all the stars--why haven't I seen him? Why don't I know who this is?' Somehow, I got through the movie without getting his name."
