Hirschfeld: The Biography . . . is the definitive one--a major work to match the man . . . Stern does a damn good job of covering a fair share of everything. --Playbill Al Hirschfeld's caricatures, especially and gloriously of key theater people, graced the pages of the New York Times and other publications for more than 75 years. But there was more to his life, as shown by Stern. Who else threw dinner parties twice a week and drove a car until age 98? --Library Journal, May Nonfiction Pick Much-needed, affectionate, and entertaining . . . As the first substantive biography of Hirschfeld, this will be welcomed by art and Broadway lovers alike. --Kirkus Reviews Al Hirschfeld's caricatures, especially and gloriously of key theater people, graced the pages of the New York Times and other publications for more than 75 years.
