Description
This is a collection of Barnes' newspaper and magazine conversations with celebrities and artists from 1914-1931, bringing to life personalities who have become myths for us. The voices of James Joyce, Florenz Ziegfeld, Diamond Jim Brady, Lillian Russell, D.W. Griffith, Mother Jones, Alfred Stieglitz, Frank Harris, Coco Chanel, Billy Sunday and many others from the past speak of their laughter and despair, dreams and doubts. In these unconventional interviews, the author is not concerned with celebrity worship; she does not fawn or glorify or promote; rather, she focuses on gesture, nuance, ephiphany--the expression of personality and the essence of character. The volume includes 23 of her original drawings. ISBN 0-940650-36-3: $16.95; ISBN 0-940650-37-1 (pbk.): $10.95.
