Diana Ross
Diana Ross was raised in the Detroit projects and, through hard work and determination, scaled the heights of superstardom, first as lead singer of the Supremes and then as a solo artist. To this day she remains the grand diva against which all others in showbusiness are measured.

His credentials are excellent, as is the source of his cumulative labours . . . grips to the very last page' Sunday Times
