Read Now Download Now ⏭ listen AudioBook
Description:In the roaring, topsy-turvy decades between the First and Second World Wars, the name Marilyn and the initials MM signified only one luminary -- Marilyn Miller. She was Broadway's premiere musical star, the prized creation of the Great Glorifier, Florenz Ziegfeld, the star of Hollywood extravaganzas, and America's adored, delicately beautiful angel. Warren G. Harris's fascinating biography of the first Marilyn re-creates a gaudy and glorious time in the American theater. It is peopled with names now legendary: Sigmund Romberg, Mary Pickford, Billie Burke, Clifton Webb, Eddie Cantor, Jerome Kern, Fred Astaire, Jack Warner, WC Fields, Fannie Brice, Moss Hart, and many others. Revue after dazzling revue was created for her, first by Lee Shubert, who made her a star when she was not yet sixteen, and then by Ziegfeld, who capitalized on her loveliness and her talent as a dancer, singer, and charmer. Her appearances on stage and off, her love life (actual and reputed), her clothes, her style, her marriages, her confrontations with Ziegfeld and others, were the stuff of daily news stories and breathless gossip... She was only thirty-seven when she died. No one who ever saw her, whether on stage in such productions as The Zeigfeld Follies, Sally, Sunny, Rosalie, and As Thousands Cheer, or in her films, ever forgot her ethereal loveliness. And for those who missed her, this biography restores to memory the star of a very special era in America's theatrical history.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
