This is an intimate look at behind-the-scenes Hollywood, as George Hamilton shares fifty years of wild tales as a quintessential insider. He has had the front row seat for some of the most amazing episodes in Hollywood's hidden history. He was present at the Cleopatra wrap party where Richard Burton declared his love for Elizabeth Taylor (in front of Taylor's husband, Eddie Fisher); he witnessed one of Judy Garland's suicide attempts; and he married (and divorced) the future Mrs Rod Stewart before she was a star. And Hamilton's experience extends well beyond Tinseltown: he went hunting in a convertible with LBJ while dating the President's daughter; found himself skinny-dipping with JFK; and danced the tango with Imelda Marcos. The world is his oyster, and in this memoir he shares its pearls with us. Hamilton's in-the-know tales are delivered with his signature self-deprecating wit and timeless elegance. George Hamilton received a seven-year contract from MGM in 1958. During the 60s he appeared in films alongside legends such as Kirk Douglas and Olivia DeHavilland.
He began a TV career in 1969 and has since appeared in many many movies and TV series includingi Dynasty, Love at First Bite and The Godfather III. He lives in Los Angeles. The book has been written with William Stadiem the co-author of the New York Times bestsellers, Mr. S and Marilyn Monroe Confidential.
