Reviews

For about a dozen years following the end of the Second World War, Jean Peters was one of Hollywood's brightest young leading ladies appearing opposite legends like Tyrone Power, Burt Lancaster, and Marlon Brando. Michelangelo Capua tells her long-neglected story and gives us an in-depth analysis of her nineteen films. Readers are sure to be delighted by the glimpse he provides into Peters's fourteen-year marriage to the enigmatic and ultra-secretive billionaire Howard Hughes, who kept her nearly captive in the gilded cages of luxurious hotels and heavily guarded mansions.--Robert Dance, author of Ferocious Ambition: Joan Crawford's March to Stardom and The Savvy Sphinx: How Garbo Conquered Hollywood


Author Information
