| Zusammenfassung: | Despite all the gossip, the larger-than-life personality and influence of this very human woman has never been captured. Biographer Mann uses untapped sources and conversations to show how she ignited the sexual revolution with her on- and off-screen passions, helped kick down the studio system by taking control of her own career, and practically invented the big business of celebrity star-making.

Mann's smart, engaging, clear-eyed case study ... locates the real person somewhere between her private life and her public imag |
