This is not just another “Hollywood Story”. Betty’s marriage to Lee Marvin will take you on a sweeping journey… to be able to emerge as a survivor from those tumultuous days is remarkable. It take guts to keep marching forward. Betty does just that in her entertaining, humorous and poignant memoir. – Tab Hunter Tales of a Hollywood HousewifeNow available on amazon.com
• An evening at the home of a young Lena Horne, who danced as Bobby Short played the piano and I sang; • Marlon Brando coming to our house evenings after shooting “The Wild One” with Lee, playing on the floor with our baby son; • The Most Intoxicated Easter of All Time – dinner with Lee’s family, which included my husband throwing a leg of lamb across the table at his brother’s head; • The increasing loneliness of the Hollywood Life, as I put aside my own career, cared for our four children, and played hostess to celebrities while Lee’s drinking tore us apart; • Opening Paris V, the first boutique on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, and the fabulous fashion shows that took place at the famous Brown Derby; • Learning to fly a plane, and flying my elderly mother to a special spot; • Losing everything. I was 62, immersed in art and travel, when I got taken for a ride by a con artist. Forget the Hollywood home I had shared with Lee and our kids, or even the much simpler artist studio I had been living in; I had nothing. I lived out of my car with my dog and my typewriter – and that was the beginning of the book.
I hope you’ll read it and enjoy it. I’d love to hear your thoughts. |
