Louise Brooks has become one of the most spectacular icons of early cinema. Her career began as a dancer with the Ziegfeld Follies, and soon she was receiving film offers from both MGM and Paramount, mingling with the high and mighty of Hollywood, having a passionate affair with Charlie Chaplin, spending weekends at William Randolph Hearst's castle and captivating such men as William S. Paley, the founder of CBS. Cowie celebrates Lulu with rare film footage stills, private photos, letters, interviews, and text, exploring this influential cult figure and abiding symbol of the Jazz Age.

Louise Brooks
This book could infuriate Louise Brook's fans and admirers. It is totally different from all the other books and the glowing essays on this most unusual star, simply because it provides the most detailed and intimate depiction of the life of the REAL Louise Brooks, not the shining star on the silver screen camouflaged by camera's tricks and Hollywood's accessories, and the magic of German film directors and cameramen, but Louise Brooks in real life. Everything you wanted to know about her affairs, her lovers, her scandalous life as a failed wife, as a call girl, as a courtesan, as a Madam in New York, and a manipulative femme fatale, her ups and downs, the way she saw the world and rebelled against it, her misfortune in Hollywood, her bizarre behavior, her numerous marriages (legal and illegal) and divorces, betrayal of her husbands and lovers, how she used men to reach her goals, her adultery, addiction, nudity and the dark shadows in her hidden life.
Lulu in Hollywood
"Louise Brooks (1906-1985), one of the most famous actresses of the silent era, was renowned as much for her rebellion against Hollywood as for her performances in such classics as Pandora's Box and Diary of a Lost Girl. Collected here are eight autobiographical essays by Brooks, vividly describing her childhood in Kansas, her early career as a Denishawn dancer and Ziegfeld Follies "Glorified Girl," and her friendships with Martha Graham, Charles Chaplin, W. C. Fields, Humphrey Bogart and others."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
