The acclaimed biographer of Bette Davis, Ingrid Bergman, and Joan Crawford once again draws on personal interviews to examine of of Hollywood's most colorful--and frequently off-color--icons. bw photographs.
Acclaimed biographer Charlotte Chandler draws on a series of interviews she conducted with legendary actress Mae West just months before her death in 1980. From their first meeting, where West held out a diamond-covered hand in greeting and lamented her interviewer's lack of jewels, to their farewell, with the star still gamely offering advice on how to attract men, West and Chandler developed a warm rapport that glows on every page of this biography.
