  • The One-And-Only Miss Shearer

    Gavin Lambert is a wonderful biographer. He interviewed Norma Shearer for this well-written history of her film career and the Golden Age of Hollywood. Highly recommended, as are his books on Natalie Wood and George Cukor. If you are a devoted TCM viewer you'll enjoy this book.
