Expanding article: edit in progress till further notice!

In trying to expand this article I can find only four reliable - and sometimes conflicting - sources: IMDB, Allmovie, filmreference.com and cobbles.com. In addition there is almost no biographical information on the web; he is supposed to have founded Santa Anita and Hollywood racetracks, to have been a major investor in both, and to have been married to a Katherine Kerwin who died in 1951 - the year he retired from the movie business. He also had one known son, Hunt Stromberg Jr., who became a producer/director in his own right. Any ideas would be highly appreciated! Thank you, Shir-El too 00:21, 25 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good work on improving the article. I went through and did a little cleanup, please review my changes. I removed the sources to IMDB and Answers.com because the first one is not considered reliable for biographical information and the second one is a mirror of Wikipedia (it basically copied this article, so you would actually be citing the text that was originally in this article). Try looking through Google News archives to see if there are any other details about his life, although I can imagine it can be difficult to find information. I've assessed the article at Start class, so good job on expanding the article. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talkcontrib) 03:50, 15 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
