<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>With thorough research and graceful prose, author Bach explores the private Moss Hart, revealing his struggles with self-doubt, depression, and sexual identity.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>From the Algonquin Round Table to the Gershwins and the Hollywood moguls, Moss Hart knew and delighted everybody. <i>Vanity</i> Fair has called him one of American theater's greatest geniuses, the man responsible for such indelible successes as <i>A Star Is Born</i>, <i>Camelot</i>, and <i>My Fair Lady</i>. His rags-to-riches autobiography, <i>Act One</i>, became one of the most successful and beloved books ever published about the lure of the theater. But it ended at the beginning--when Hart was only twenty-five. Now, at last, we have the whole and far richer story in this first full-scale biography of the Prince of Broadway. Here Steven Bach explores the private Moss Hart, revealing his struggles with self-doubt, depression, and sexual identity, and the public one, recounting his creativity and charisma, his wit and grace. With thorough research and graceful prose, Steven Bach takes us on a journey to another time and place, where one man created a dazzling world for himself and for all American theatergoers.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Steven Bach</b>, author of the bestselling <i>Final Cut</i> and <i>Marlene Dietrich</i>, teaches at Columbia University and Bennington College and divides his time between Europe and the United States.
