American Prince by Peter Golenbock

At the height of Hollywood's Golden Age, Tony Curtis starred in "Houdini" and "Spartacus", made comedy history with Jack Lemmon in the unforgettable "Some Like It Hot", was friends with Frank Sinatra, Cary Grant and James Dean, and romanced screen sirens such as Marilyn Monroe, Janet Leigh and Natalie Wood. He lived a life he could only dream of growing up in the Bronx. Born Bernard Schwarz to immigrant parents, this is Tony Curtis' story of his hard-knock childhood, his wild days as a Hollywood playboy, his destructive drug addiction and his life now as an artist in his eighties. Sparing no name, no detail and no ego, Tony Curtis talks intimately about the people he has known during his long, illustrious career, his co-stars, the studio owners, his wives, his lovers and his friends. This book will be the true record of his life, told with humour, grace and honesty.
Tony Curtis is a screen legend. In his sixty-year career he has appeared in over one hundred films, including such classics as Spartacus, The Defiant Ones and Some Like It Hot. His numerous TV appearances include co-starring with Roger Moore in The Persuaders. He lives in Las Vegas with his fifth wife, Jill. Peter Golenbock has written six New York Times bestsellers over a thirty-three-year career.
