As it was for many immigrants of their generation, for the Warners the voyage to America was in part a trail of tears: Four additional children were left behind in the Polish soil, each of whom had died in infancy.
But it was brother Harry's quixotic Belasco purchase of the mid-'20s that carried the studio standard for most of the decade in the form of "Gold Diggers of 1933," "Gold Diggers of 1935" and "Gold Diggers of 1937," all starring a bevy of contract beauties and a crooner named Dick Powell.
Warner Bros. launched the screen careers of both Marlon Brando (with "A Streetcar Named Desire") and James Dean (who made all three of his features for the studio) in the early 1950s, showing, if temporarily, that the studio could be more than a match for changing times.

Harry Warner was a superb fanwriter and a prolific correspondent.
I agreed with Tim Marion when he wrote: "Since Harry is one of my very favorite fanwriters, the temptation is to put his writing into 10-point type and my own into 8-point…." Harry undertook to comment on every zine he got, sometimes writing that he felt guilty for falling behind or missing an issue.
