{"product_id":"eleanor-robson-belmont-kevin-lane-dearinger-9781476692296","title":"Eleanor Robson Belmont: A Theatrical Life","description":"\u003cp\u003e When Mrs. August Belmont died in 1979, just before her 100th birthday, she was remembered as a philanthropist and advocate for the arts, especially the Metropolitan Opera--but before her triumphs as Mrs. Belmont, she had dignified the American stage for 13 glorious years as Eleanor Robson, actress. Her splendid voice, understated style, and always-evident intelligence thrilled legions of theatregoers and enthralled the best playwrights of her time, including Israel Zangwill, Clyde Fitch, and George Bernard Shaw.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Despite the brevity of her career, Eleanor Robson stands as a prototype for many actresses who followed her--women who sought to control their own careers and demanded artistic respect and freedom, and who, by the twenty-first century, would confidently call themselves not actresses, but actors. This is the first book-length biography of her, focusing especially on her theatrical career.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kevin Lane Dearinger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1476692297\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781476692296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/23\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.59d","brand":"Kevin Lane Dearinger","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46906778517759,"sku":"9781476692296","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0f5209ab-a3f5-4fe8-8ef0-61856ed3f69a.jpg?v=1748771394","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/eleanor-robson-belmont-kevin-lane-dearinger-9781476692296","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
