We love a complicated and dastardly biography from the #goldenageofhollywood! Of today’s #bookfacefriday, @kirkus_reviews writes “a clear-eyed portrayal of an irascible Hollywood power broker. Drawing on scores of candid interviews, journalist and movie historian Wilkerson vividly recounts the life and career of his father, a powerful and controversial figure in Hollywood from the 1930s through the 1950s. Publisher of the @hollywoodreporter, the late Wilkerson could make or break reputations with one of his pointed editorials. With ties to organized crime, a lifelong addiction to gambling, and a mercurial temper, he was a man to be feared....An entertaining history of the movie industry’s tumultuous past”. Intrigued??
