Hollywood Heyday: 75 Candid Interviews with Golden Age Legends
Categories: Kindle Store, Kindle eBooks, Biographies & Memoirs

"What audacity!" exclaimed actor Robert Wagner when he heard about the authors&apos; adolescent exploits in nabbing interviews with Hollywood celebrities. In 1978, Fantle and Johnson, St. Paul teenagers, boarded a plane to meet with Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly. They had written the stars requesting interviews--and to their amazement, both agreed. Over the years, more than 250 other stars also agreed--Lucille Ball, Bob Hope, James Cagney, Mickey Rooney, Debbie Reynolds, George Burns, Rod Steiger, Milton Berle, Frank Capra and Hoagy Carmichael, to name a few. Published for the first time and with exclusive photos, this selection of 75 interviews chronicles the authors&apos; 40-year quest for insights and anecdotes from iconic 20th century artists.
