<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Lerner will always be remembered as a Broadway light, and one of the brightest." --Tom Shales, <em>The Washington Post</em><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>The Street Where I Live</em> is at once an intimate biography of three great shows--<em>My Fair Lady</em>, <em>Gigi</em>, and <em>Camelot</em>--and a candid account of the life and times of Alan J. Lerner, one of America's most acclaimed and popular lyricists. Large-hearted, humorous, and often poignant in its reverence for a celebrated era in the American theater, this is the story of what Lerner calls "the sundown of wit, eccentricity, and glamour." Try as he might to keep himself out of these pages, Lerner reveals himself to be a man of great talent, laughter, and love. Along the way, we meet a sensational supporting cast: Moss Hart, Fritz Loewe, Julie Andrews, Richard Burton, Rex Harrison, Cecil Beaton, Louis Jourdan, and Maurice Chevalier, to name a few. They are seen in moments of triumph and disaster, but all are professionals at the creation of theater. And the creation of theater is the matrix of this wonderful book. Included are the complete lyrics to <em>My Fair Lady</em>, <em>Gigi</em>, and <em>Camelot</em>.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Wonderful...If you haven't read Lerner's memoir, order it now. It's urbane and witty, like the man himself.-- "New York Post"<br>
