Richard Gere by Peter Carrick

This is a biography of the actor, Richard Gere, who found Hollywood stardom in the 1980s with films such as "American Gigolo", "Yanks", "An Officer and a Gentleman" and "Breathless". The book traces Gere's life and career from his staunchly Methodist middle-class upbringing to his present role as a Buddhist and a champion of good causes. It examines how he has been determined to remain an individual, almost dismissive of his career, and living down his celebrity image. The book looks at his college success, his musical talents and failings, his West end hits in "Grease", his more recent films, including "Pretty Woman", "Sommersby" and "First Knight", and his marriage to supermodel, Cindy Crawford.
