520 8 |a "The Jesuit impresario and pamphleteer Daniel Lord was a blend of St. Ignatius of Loyola and George M. Cohan, both of whom he admired and emulated. As Stephen A. Werner shows in this extraordinary biography, The Restless Flame, Lord played a pivotal role in the American motion picture industry, as the author, in 1930, of the original text of the Motion Picture Production Code. Yet as Werner also demonstrates, Lord's legacy includes such unambiguously progressive causes as consumer cooperatives, credit unions, the fight for interracial justice, and the promotion of greater equity in the life of the church for lay people and members of women's religious communities. The Restless Flame goes a long way toward confirming Daniel Lord's stature as the most constructive, influential American Catholic of the 1930s and 1940s."--  |c Back cover.
