Crime and Celebrity in 1920s New York Stephen Duncombe and Andrew Mattson Hear the bizarre-but-true story of a female stick-up artist whose 1924 crime spree launched a manhunt and a media frenzy. Stephen Duncombe and Andrew Mattson collaborated on The Bobbed Hair Bandit, the tale of poor, 19-year-old Brooklyn laundress Celia Cooney, who robbed a string of local grocery stores with a “baby automatic”—and a fur coat.
