<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Biography of 1940's Hollywood starlet Gail Russell.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>The unforgettable story of Gail Russell (1924-1961), Hollywood"s Forgotten Legend, <br /> who rose from high school obscurity to become one of Paramount Studios major<br /> stars during the 1940's. Her fabled discovery by Paramount Talent Head William<br /> Meiklejohn in 1942 has become one of the most legendary tales in Hollywood<br /> history. Here is the in depth story of the long forgotten Paramount star whose beauty<br /> was rare, even by Hollywood standards. The shy actress with the lovely blue eyes, <br /> and the luxurious, raven black hair whose face, when in repose, always had a haunting<br /> sadness. Gail Russell's story is taken from old newspaper and magazine accounts<br /> taken during her lifetime. Interviews with Gail Russell's mother, those people whom<br /> worked with her during her movie career, and especially with those interviews with Gail<br /> Russell personally. It is a unique and vivid tale of a young girl who possessed the beauty<br /> of a movie star, but tragically, not the temperament.</p> <p>The book also contains over 100 photos from Gail's life and movie career.</p>
