The entertainers

About this book

Candid, insightful, and penetrating, Timothy White's timeless profiles of more than two dozen of the twentieth century's brightest stars are compiled for the first time ever in The Entertainers. First published in major national publications such as The New York Times Magazine, Rolling Stone, Cosmopolitan, and Harper's Bazaar, these acclaimed pieces appear here in specially expanded form, and include previously unseen material deleted from the original features as well as new forewords written especially for this collection. Complete with unforgettable black-and-white visuals by photographers such as Annie Leibovitz and David Burnett, The Entertainers offers a unique look at the history of popular entertainment in the twentieth century as seen by many of the stars who made it.
