How to Be a Movie Star
Elizabeth Taylor has always had star power, but in this first-of-its-kind biography, the focus is completely on her—a vibrant beauty full of charm, professional courage, and humor.
Elizabeth Taylor is followed by acclaimed historian William Mann as she rises through the ranks at MGM, falls into (and out of) marriages, wins Oscars, battles studio feuds, and defies America's traditional norms with her extremely modern love relationships. But he also sheds light on Elizabeth's illustrious private life, revealing a passion for her profession and a commitment to the underdog that fueled her lifelong fight against the studio system. Elizabeth Taylor as she lived and loved, violating and establishing the rules in the game of pinnacle stardom, swathed in mink, disposing of spouses while retaining the jewels.
