Overview

ONE WONDERS HOW PAUL NEWMAN EVER MANAGED TO AVOID PUBLIC SCRUTINY FOR SO LONG. A pioneering and posthumous biography of a charismatic icon of Tinseltown drawn from firsthand interviews with insiders who knew Paul Newman intimately, and compiled over a period of nearly a half-century, this is the world s most honest and most revelatory biography about Hollywood s pre-eminent male sex symbol, with dozens of potentially shocking revelations. Paul Newman s rule over the hearts of American moviegoers lasted for more than half a century. This famous American actor evolved into a potent, desirable, and ambiguous sex symbol. A former sailor from Shaker Heights, Ohio, he parlayed his ambisexual charm and extraordinary good looks into one of the most successful careers in Hollywood. It s all here, as recorded by celebrity chronicler Darwin Porter--the giddy heights and agonizing lows of a great American star. Whereas the situations it exposes were widely known within Hollywood s inner circles, they ve never before been revealed to the general public. If you re a fan of Newman (and who do you know who isn t?) you really should look at this book. It s a respectful but candid cornucopia of information about Paul Newman, with rare insights into the sexual and emotional adventures of a young man on Broadway and in Hollywood.
