Product Description
This is the first full-length biography of Irene Dunne, one of the most versatile actresses of Hollywood's Golden Age. A recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors award in 1985, Dunne's acting highlights include five Best Actress Oscar nominations, occurring in almost as many different genres: the Western Cimarron (1931), two screwball comedies: Theodora Goes Wild (1936) and The Awful Truth (1937), the romantic comedy Love Affair (1939), and the populist I Remember Mama (1948). ...

5-0 out of 5 stars She Should Never Be Forgotten
This is a lovely book about a woman who certainly did her best in her field and private life.She was indeed unique as one can easily tell when watching her wonderful films....old and well as the later ones.

I think the author did a wonderful job researching his subject.I wanted more and didn't want the story to end.Thank you.

2-0 out of 5 stars A Thesis not a Biography

If you want a university style thesis on Irene Dunne, then you will be happy with this highly priced book.It is analytical as you might expect from an academic but the author has failed to make a story out of it. This makes for a very tedious read.Refer to the biography of Alice Faye to see how well it can be done.

Margie Shultz, in her bio-bibliography of Dunne, does a much better job. The biography of Irene Dunne is yet to be written.

4-0 out of 5 stars "Well Dunne" of a Book!
I think this book is excellent for students and people who are discovering the world of classic Hollywood.It goes into detail without getting "too personal".Please realize that this book is intended for educational purposes (although it is entertaining at points about her life).

If anyone wants to know more about Irene Dunne personally, then you should start collecting old movie magazines from the 1930s to the present.Otherwise, I would recommend this piece of well-written art, to anyone who is willing to learn about a great actress and a great human-being!Thanks for your tribute to Irene, Prof. Gehring.Since she didn't write a book herself, there are lots of us fans who really appreciate your hard work (not to mention how envious we are that you got to talk to her).We commend you!

2-0 out of 5 stars Tepid Dunne Biography, Not Worth the Price!
For the exhorbitant price of $45.00 and higher, I expected a nice coffee-table style book chronicling Dunne's career and her life as well, loaded with pictures.This is not what I received.

What I received was a 178 page synopsis style of Dunne's non-scandalous life (rare for a Hollywood star...she was married to the same man for 45 years!!Amen to that...refreshing...) devoted to her family, a jewel to work with, and never gave a bad performance.Along with Barbara Stanwyck she was the best actress never to have received an academy award (she was nominated five times).

However, the author skims over Dunne's life, briefly analyzes the periods of her career and says almost nothing of Dunne's later years!!There Are a few pictures in the middle insert...but none of Dunne as a child or as a mature woman.

Irene Dunne was a classy lady who deserves better than what she gets here...a tepid, rushed biography (which doesn't even include a dust jacket) finely printed on glossy paper with the high price that is just not worth it.I'm sorry I bought it as I really learned nothing new about Dunne that I didn't already know.This book is acceptable at perhaps $7.95.$45.00???Ridiculous!Trust me! ...

Editorial Review

Product Description
Often called the "First Lady of Hollywood," Irene Dunne juggled comedies, dramas, and musicals with aplomb, and all three genres were represented in her five Academy Award nominations. Her television career was equally successful, and she was active in many civic and philanthropic causes, even serving as an alternate delegate to the United Nations. All aspects of her career--on stage and screen, in radio, television, and recordings--are documented, analyzed, and carefully indexed in this first in-depth study of her work. A biographical overview features reminiscences from notable colleagues, and an annotated bibliography records the diverse writings by and about her, with a list of magazine covers appended. Photographs are also included. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent record of a great woman
Once again, Margie Shulz has provided an outstanding record of a masterly lady with an extensive and impressive career. Irene Dunne was the complete lady. She combined a very successful film career with a happy and rewarding personal life and when she retired from the screen, she devoted much time to charitable works. All of this has been extensively recorded in an excellent essay which begins the book. In fact, the essay is more enlightening than the biography of Dunne which appeared a few years ago and much easier to read.These bio-bibliographies are very expensive but this is one of the best.

5-0 out of 5 stars One of the Best Books in this Series
These Greenwood books are a mixed bag but this is one of the best I've seen, thoroughly researched with a lot of rare information. ... Read more

Extrait : Mohamed Ali ou en anglais Muhammad Ali (né Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr. le 17 janvier 1942 à Louisville, dans le Kentucky), est un boxeur américain évoluant en catégorie poids lourd. Il fut nommé sportif du siècle par une assemblée de journalistes internationaux, précédant Pelé. Il doit sa célébrité mondiale autant par ses performances sportives que par son verbe haut, sa conduite extrasportive et son activisme politique. Il est atteint de la maladie de Parkinson. Le 17 décembre 2005, il reçoit à Berlin la médaille de la Paix Otto Hahn, décernée tous les deux ans par la société allemande, au nom de l'Organisation des Nations unies. Cassius est né le 17 janvier 1942 à Louisville. Il porte le nom d'un général abolitionniste du Kentucky, Cassius Marcellus Clay, qui affranchit ses milliers d'esclaves au début du siècle. Cassius Marcellus apprit la boxe avec ses amis. Son premier contact avec la boxe se fait dans une caserne de police, suite au vol de son vélo, il dit vouloir apprendre la boxe pour terrasser le voleur, le policier Joe Martin l'encourage à comm...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ...
