About this title: Following his superb biography of Robert Mitchum, "Baby I Don't Care," Server turns to the life of movie icon Ava Gardner. Her rise to fame was a Cinderella story, to be sure, but Server gives readers the unexpurgated version in this no-holds-barred view of a larger-than-life star.

"I'm not especially a fan of biographies, and certainly not of Hollywood stars, but I was intrigued by this after a NY Times rave. I wasn't disappointed. More, I was totally enthralled not just by the portrait of Gardner, but by all the behind the scenes action of many of the films she worked on, as well as the portrait of Hollywood, her loves and co-stars, and the movie business over several decades.
Truly memorable, and a great beach (or patio!) read.
