by Judith M. Riggin
Category: Biography & Autobiography

John Wayne--the man, actor, and icon--remains synonymous with certain American values. He represents conservative political views, aggressive militarism, and a masculine bravado. In film history, Wayne has a place as one of the great stars, perhaps even as one of the greatest actors. This bio-bibliography traces the life and career of John Wayne, covering all his work in the performing arts. In addition to the biographical chapter and a career chronology, the work contains an exhaustive bibliography, an index of fan magazine articles unavailable elsewhere, and the complete 1971 controversial Playboy magazine interview.
