{"product_id":"robert-taylor-charles-tranberg-9781593936150","title":"Robert Taylor: A Biography","description":"Robert Taylor was one of Hollywood's biggest stars for over thirty-years and starred in such classic films as Magnificent Obsession, Camille, A Yank at Oxford, Waterloo Bridge, Johnny Eager, Quo Vadis, Ivanhoe and The Last Hunt. He worked with the cream of Hollywood leading ladies: Irene Dunne, Joan Crawford, Greta Garbo, Vivien Leigh, Lana Turner, Katharine Hepburn and Barbara Stanwyck, who he later married, just to name a few. An open and friendly man who usually tried to avoid controversy, Taylor stepped into it when he became a so-called friendly witness appearing before the House Un-American Activities Committee during the height of the Washington investigations into alleged Communism in Hollywood. It has haunted his reputation to this day. A happy second marriage to actress Ursula Thiess produced two children and gave Taylor a contentment he lacked in his earlier marriage. Author Charles Tranberg takes a fresh look at the actor who was once called, \"The man with the perfect profile.\" This book also takes a fascinating look at the Hollywood Studio system which existed during Taylor's hey-day.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles Tranberg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 159393615X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781593936150\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e BearManor Media\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 404\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.83d","brand":"Charles Tranberg","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43979290083583,"sku":"9781593936150","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3c437f42-42cf-46bd-9fb4-2159ce4183b5.jpg?v=1683244761","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/robert-taylor-charles-tranberg-9781593936150","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
