Hollywood: Actors & Politicos is Norman B. Schwartz's collection of twenty or more essays about larger-than-life personalities – some were actors, some were politicians, some both. From Franklin Delano Roosevelt, 32nd President of the United States – who performed the role of the benevolent aristocrat to perfection – to Ronald Reagan, a professional, who played both the boy next door and the 40th President with competence, we meet Orson Welles, Charlie Chaplin, the Kennedy clan, Marilyn Monroe, Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy-and-Onassis, the brothers Warner and Marx, the Bushes Sr and Jr, Dorothy Parker and Scott Fitzgerald, Bogie and Lauren, Laurel and Hardy, Sacco and Vanzetti. As Louis B. Mayer once boasted about his studio: “More Stars Than There Are In Heaven.” Published by our near namesake, CenterHouse Press USA (no relation). Price includes carriage costs.
