A. SCOTT BERG • SAMUEL GOLDWYN BIOGRAPHY • 1989 PB • OLD HOLLYWOOD • FILM • VG+

Description: In 1978, the biographer A. Scott Berg accomplished a seemingly impossible feat—he wrote a book about the noble art of editing that was an absolute page turner of literary sophistication. His biography of Maxwell Perkins, the most important fiction editor of the 20th century, won the National Book Award as a result. In 1989, he tried to do the same thing for the Last Tycoon of the Hollywood studio era—Samuel Goldwyn—and, you could argue, was just as successful. Pictured here is an excellent early paperback printing of GOLDWYN: A Biography, published by Riverhead Books, in pictorial film roll-roll style wraps, clocking in at 577 pages, including a generous amount of glossy photographs. Very Good in Very Good Wraps. Free of writing, notations, chips, creases, and tears. A film biography to get lost in.
