Katharine Hepburn by Barbara Leaming
This is a biography of Kate Hepburn. What drove her? Why was she so loved? What led this fiercly independent woman to curl up devotedly outside Spencer Tracy's locked door while he drank himself unconscious? Hepburn's own books gave away nothing, but this biography sets out to bring alive three generations of fearless women shadowed by suicide and madness.Barbara Leaming is the author of three New York Times bestsellers, including Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis, which was published recently. The International Churchill Centre awarded Leaming's book Churchill Defiant The Emery Reves Award. Jack Kennedy: The Education of a Statesman, her trailblazing biography of America's 35th President, was the first to demonstrate the lifelong effect of British history and culture, particularly Winston Churchill, on JFK. Her work has appeared in publications such as the New York Times Magazine, Vanity Fair, the Times of London, and others.
