Synopsis
Respected biographer William J. Mann (KATE: THE WOMAN WHO WAS HEPBURN) examines the extraordinary life of actress Elizabeth Taylor. Taylor was the star of numerous classic films, including GIANT and CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF. Mann tracks her early days battling Hollywood, as she bucks the system and tries to call the shots on her career. He openly discusses her many wild love affairs, including her relationships with Eddie Fisher and Richard Burton, with whom she carried on a very public and scandalous affair on the set of CLEOPATRA while she was still married to Fisher (and whom she married - twice!). Mann holds Taylor up as a revolutionary, and argues that her dismissal of conservative values played an integral part in the sexual revolution. He takes pains to showcase the true wit and spirit of Taylor, and he relays many personal stories and hardships, both of which help to captures the fiery personality of the American legend.

Publisher's Note
The author of the New York Times Notable Book Kate: The Woman Who Was Hepburn pulls back the curtain on an unseen Elizabeth Taylor, revealing a genius at big-time stardom and a heroine whose rebellion changed Hollywood.

Industry reviews
"Mann's eminently yummy entry is pretty much everything you'd want in a Hollywood biography....[He] argues that, despite Taylor's half-dozen or so legendary on-screen roles...the instrument she truly mastered was celebrity itself."
 (10/19/2009)

"[I]rresistible....William J. Mann's ridiculously entertaining biography of Elizabeth Taylor in her Hollywood heyday is yummier than digging into a hot-fudge sundae and a stack of Us Weeklys."
 (10/20/2009)
