I just saw that the UK Biography Channel is going to spotlight Melvin Purvis.

"Melvin Purvis
COMING SOON!
Nerdish looks made him an unlikely FBI hero. Nailing big name crims like Pretty Boy Floyd, Dillinger and Baby Face Nelson earned public acclaim and envy from J Edgar Hoover."

That sounds like must-see TV, Christine--I hope you can catch it. Purvis's story is fascinating. Wonder what they'll say about Hoover.....
