This candid biography chronicles the fabulous life of Ava Gardner and of the men--including Howard Hughes, Clark Gable and Frank Sinatra--who played roles in that life
At about age 15 or 16 I fell in love with classic Hollywood. I loved the movies - plots, costumes, sets and actors. I started to become more fascinated with the different actors and learning more about them. I started to go to the library and started picking up various biographies/memoirs. Jane Ellen Wayne writes a few biographies with the focus being on the love lives (affairs, marriages, etc). I found them entertaining, and led me to more credible biographies.
