Book Synopsis

One of the powerful icons of 1930s Hollywood film, Jean Harlow died a tragically early death in 1937 at age 26. During her brief career, she delivered memorable performances in such MGM classics as Red Dust (1932), Bombshell (1933), Dinner at Eight (1933) and Libeled Lady (1936), among others.

Taking a film-by-film look at Harlow''s work and her own impressions of her costars and directors, this retrospective traces her growth as an actress--from tentative supporting player to top star at a prestigious studio--and how her often tumultuous life informed her performances.
