When I first published Affairs
Valentino in 2011, I expected debate, discussion and interest...
but I never imagined my exposing what amounted to a cover-up ...would
instigate an organized campaign of harassment, bullying, “death
scenarios” and more... targeting me and my loved ones.
My research discoveries revealed how a
vast archive of materials related to Rudolph Valentino had been
stolen, hidden from public access, their existence and content lied
about and a false narrative about Rudolph Valentino consequently
instigated and perpetuated. The stunning aspect of this cover-up
is... that this is still the case.
Documents, court records, valuable
memoirs, correspondence are all secreted into collections and denied
the public's review. Valuable historical documents are hoarded and
traded and used as currency to silence, intimidate and control.
Affairs Valentino was and still
is called “pure fiction” by those who participate in this cover-up. It is anything but fiction and they know that. They know it is
pure truth because they have the same documents upon which I based
the book and have had them for decades. They continue in this
cover-up because I wrote the first truth, cited it to forty pages of
end notes and openly shared my sources and continue to do so.
Why do they lie so mercilessly? Because
Affairs Valentino exposed the truth and in this they were
exposed … they hide the documents which reveal decades of brazen
lies and fiction told to reinvent Rudolph Valentino's history in order to
protect their sordid interests and involvements. How ironic they
call Affairs Valentino fiction when they are sitting on the same
documentation and much more than I referenced when I spent years
piecing it all together.
By the time this first edition came
out, I had been attacked and tortured daily online for a solid
year... and behind the scenes those doing so passed information and
allied to form their syndicate which is still wielding their pure
fiction...
And as far as their telling people
interested in the book... yes a few weeks ago that Affairs
Valentino is “not worth a penny.” I quote a review I
excerpted on the back of the Special Edition of the book,
"Zumaya has faced viciously barbaric opposition to her work, which has compelled her to cease publication of this fine book. This is a disastrous pity for she has done more than any other researcher to advance our understanding of this fascinating screen legend... If you find her book, buy it and don't flinch at the price. It tells a story worthy of any Hollywood scandal."
