"The Brown family, three brothers and a sister, applied themselves to the task of finding this unknown [starlet] through searching the Internet's genealogy sites, researched every repository they could, visited film museums, and contacted every expert they could find to restore this golden leaf in their family tree. Because of their commitment, there is now an extensive Regina Doyle filmography online and a family "backstory" that is no longer incomplete . . . . [S]hare how they discovered Regina, and the film Bashful Whirlwind (1925) . . . so we can all learn who Regina Doyle was."

- Richard Adkins, President, Hollywood Heritage Museum; Director, 54th CineCon Classic Film Festival, Spielberg Theatre, Hollywood (Sept 2, 2018).

Butterflies in the Rain: A Tale of Old Hollywood," has all the elements of a classic Hollywood story: youth, beauty, glamour and tragedy. Silent-film era Hollywood dramatically awakens as the setting of a story that is part Hollywood memoir and part family saga, as three grandsons embark on a twenty-year search for the life, art, and tragic end of a starlet who was killed at 24 returning from a Universal set. The story unfolds across a continent and an ocean, eight generations and four centuries. The world knows all about the stars of the silent-film era, the Pickfords and Fairbanks, Garbos and Chaplins; now there is a burgeoning interest to recover from the long night of cinematic oblivion, those starlets whose light was eclipsed by the glow of these stars or by Fate.
