Spring 2007 Karloff in Saskatchewan This article describes Karloff's time with the Jeanne Russell Players in Saskatchewan in 1912. Like my article Boris Karloff in Alberta the piece reveals much that is new about Karloff and his stage work. This article also reveals, for the first time anywhere, details about Karloff's personal life that contradict information given by all previous Karloff biographers, and even Karloff himself! This article has been published in the Spring 2007 edition of Saskatchewan History (Vol. 59, Number 1). Order the magazine here.
