Reviews
" Kaufman comes up with a solid, valuable portrait of one of the 20th century's most memorable actresses." - Washington Post "Reveals a much more complex and even baffling figure than Martin herself gave us in her memoir... A lively story, filled with amusing details..." - Wall Street Journal " Probing, compassionate, revelatory..." - USA Today "Kaufman's treatment of Martin is evenhanded as she exposes her weaknesses and strengths to shed important new light on one of American musical theater's most revered stars." -- Booklist " Warm and well-researched... The author deftly summarizes her career and personal history..." - Kirkus Reviews " Glittering is the operative word. Martin was a thoroughly captivating performer for her entire lengthy career and Kaufman's work does right by her... Kaufman excels in providing revelatory contrasts between public and private personas." - Library Journal " Arguably the most exhaustively researched treatise ever compiled regarding Broadway and Hollywood legend Mary Martin... Insights into the changing nature of Broadway over the course of Martin's lengthy career make this an intriguing read..." - Publisher's Weekly, "Detailing Martin's work with entertaining, illuminating anecdotes, Kaufman comes up with a solid, valuable portrait of one of the 20th century's most memorable actresses." - Washington Post "... probing, compassionate, revelatory new biography." - USA Today "Longtime theater critic Kaufman's biography of stage star Martin will tick all the boxes for ardent fans of the performer." - Kirkus Reviews "Theater critic Kaufman continues in his theatrical biography niche with arguably the most exhaustively researched treatise ever compiled regarding Broadway and Hollywood legend Mary Martin." - Publishers Weekly, Praise for Doris Day:The Untold Story of The Girl Next Door - "Day finally gets her due in David Kaufman's compelling new biography. This isn't just a retread of Day's unsentimental journey... . Movie buffs will find plenty of juicy tidbits to chew on, especially when Kaufman delves into the parallels between Day's screen life and her real one."- Newsday

Synopsis
Mary Martin was one of the greatest stars of her day. Growing up in Texas, she was married early to Benjamin Hagman and gave birth to her first child, Larry Hagman. She was divorced even more quickly. Martin left little Larry with her parents and took off for Hollywood. She didn't make a dent in the movie industry and was lured to New York where she found herself auditioning for Cole Porter and his new show Leave It to Me . After she sang the bawdy My Heart Belongs to Daddy, she ended up on the cover of Life magazine. Six years later, she became the Toast of Broadway when she starred in South Pacific. After that, she flew as Peter Pan, yodeled in The Sound of Music, took Hello, Dolly on the road and shared a four-poster with Robert Preston in I Do I Do . Her personal life was just as interesting: In NYC, she met and married Richard Halliday, a closeted upper-class homosexual who adored her, Broadway and interior decorating (though probably not in that order). They were a powerful twosome. There were rumors about Martin, too, being in a lesbian relationship with both Janet Gaynor and Jean Arthur. Peopled with legends like Ethel Merman, Ezio Pinza, Noel Coward and a starry cast of thousands, David Kaufman's Some Enchanted Evenings is the delectable story of the one and only Mary Martin, a woman who described herself as a chicken farmer from Texas only to become Peter Pan and capture America's heart., A fascinating new biography of Mary Martin, the girl whose heart belonged to daddy, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Janet Gaynor and Peter Pan., Mary Martin was one of the greatest stars of her day.

- v***v (2077)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
