Publisher's Summary
Beauchamp writes about the pictures Kennedy produced, the stars he made - and destroyed - and the men who did his bidding. She also writes about the Hollywood titans in his midst: William Randolph Hearst, Cecille B. DeMille, and David Sarnoff, whose collaboration with Kennedy resulted in the formation of RKO Studios.
A fascinating tale of personal greed and business genius that examines not only the way Kennedy made his fortune but what he left in his path and how he forever changed the business of movie making.

What the critics say
"He operated just like Joe Stalin. Their system was to write a letter to the files saying one thing and order the exact reverse on the phone." (Gloria Swanson)
