About This Item
Norton (1978), 1978. Hardcover. Very Good/Good. Royal octavo, hardcover, previous owner's name on endpaper else VG in good white pictorial dj. First printing. Pamphlet re. Hayworth, titled "Epilogue, A Meeting" laid in. (12 pp)."To read about Rita Hayworth is to be dazzled by the grandeur and the folly of Hollywood in the forties. The author writes, 'This isn't just a book about Rita, it's the story of the only industry in the world that takes a person off the street, and tells her "you're special, you're a star."' But Hayworth is special. She danced with Astaire and Kelly, was directed by Hawks and Cukor, and acted with Tracy, Grant, Crawford, Cagney, Laughton, Cooper, and Wayne. The author, who befriended Hayworth in the early 1970s, describes her as 'an approachable Garbo: childlike, vulnerable, but still enormously dignified. 340 deckled pp. including index.
