In the first biography in English of the great Argentinian tango singer Carlos Gardel (1890-1935), Collier traces his rise from very modest beginnings to become the first genuine "superstar" of twentieth-century Latin America. In his late teens, Gardel won local fame in the barrios of Buenos Aires singing in cafes and political clubs. By the 1920s, after he switched to tango singing, the songs he wrote and sang enjoyed instant popularity and have become classics of the genre. He began making movies in the 1930s, quickly establishing himself as the most popular star of the Spanish-language cinema, and at the time of his death Paramount was planning to launch his Hollywood career.Collier's biography focuses on Gardel's artistic career and achievements but also sets his life story within the context of the tango tradition, of early twentieth-century Argentina, and of the history of popular entertainment.

CARLOS GARDEL "VOLVER" ("To Return") The Carlos Gardel story is told in 29 colorful chapters that are like scenes in a period movie set in the era of tango 1900-1935 in Buenos Aires, Barcelona, Madrid, Paris, and New York. It is dedicated to Carlos Gardel, "El Zorzal" (The Songbird of Buenos Aires) who for many of his admirers has become an almost quixotic obsession and who, to this day, is a charismatic hero as popular in Argentina as Evita Peron or Jesus. Out of poverty stricken, immigrant existence Carlos Gardel, the poor "Morocho Del Abasto" (Dark-Eyed Kid from Abasto) became South America's most charismatic interpreter of the tango-cancion, a wildly popular film star, and was crowned the Tango King in Paris in 1930. He was chosen to replace Rudolf Valentino for Paramount when he tragically died in a plane crash in Medellin, Colombia, 1935. This page turning, historic novel gives us new and sensational insight answering the many puzzling questions about the life of Gardel, his motivations, and his music. For example, why and how did the plane crash happen? His liaisons with women? His life long friendship with men? His role in creating the tango-cancion? His involvement with a rich older woman who financed his films? His acting career? And the tragic end as the words of the tangos "Volver" and "Mi Buenos Aires Querido" are fatefully fulfilled as the beloved Carlitos, after the plane crash, returns home to Buenos Aires in a coffin, and more than thirty thousand are in the streets during his funeral. "Mi Buenos Aires querido, cuando yo te vuelva a ver, no habra mas penas ni olvido." (My beloved Buenos Aires when I see you again I will feel no more pain or oblivion.) The riveting account of the life and death of the elusive Gardel is based on countless hours of research. The book also contains more than 30 translations of the most important tango-canciones, from lunfardo (slang of Buenos Aires), which are key to understanding the times and the milieu that created Tango Argentina and the tango-cancion. "It will snow in Buenos Aires before another Gardel is found!" "Cada dia canta mejor!"

"Gardel''s Tango'' tells the story of Carlos Gardel from the streets of Buenos Aires to triumphs in France and Hollywood, how he broke into tango by out-singing Maestro, a cabaret owner-star who partnered with him, becoming his manager as Gardel''s fame outstripped his own. An inveterate womanizer who deeply loves his French mother, his long association with Isabel del Valle is an on-again-off-again affair- meanwhile his vigorous, sexual affair with Baronessa , a tobacco heiress finances his début in Paris- a story certainly desirable for the stage." "Gardel deserves this kind of attention. Lacey''s relationship between Gardel, selling fruit on the streets of Buenos Aires and José Razzano, an older singer of lovelorn ballads whom he emulates, as the student surpasses the maestro, whom by the end is begging to stay connected with the Gardel phenomenon. Key collaborator Alfredo Le Pera, who elevated tango lyric into poignant folk poetry as a gay man might he have been ''un poquito'' in love with the tango crooner? The entire play revolves dizzyingly around Gardel drinking, betting and womanizing!" "If you''re a fan of 1940s MGM biopics, you''ll be a fan of ''Gardel''s Tango'' about composer, singer, and musical innovator Carlos Gardel, who lived from 1890 to 1935, took Tango from the seedy alleys of Buenos Aires to gay Paree, Broadway, and Hollywood. It has all the elements of those old biopics that take you from boyhood to grave, a comic sidekick, a domineering mother, a show-ending funeral, and a few salacious moments to put on the poster and draw in the crowds." "GARDEL''S TANGO'' is about the person who devised the modern dance noted to be most romantic and erotic: tango! The story of Carlos Gardel, responsible for the love affair of the tango, a dance with more style and grace than any other form of movement- expressive, moody with extensive sex appeal. This play shows tango in peak form- the saga of the person that introduces this dance to the world in keen fashion." ''GARDEL''S TANGO'' serves as an unabashed showcase for real-life, turn-of-the-century, international film star Carlos Gardel. In Buenos Aires, younger Gardel works as a fruit vendor hoping for his big break into the entertainment arena of the tango and cozies up to Isabel, ''niece'' of popular singer Maestro. Isabel''s introduces them, which results in a new musical duo. Gardel''s befuddled mother, Maman doesn''t want her son to leave her in Buenos Aires to tour and become a success as Baronessa, a married woman so entranced with Gardel''s charms, bankrolls his climb to fame." "Vanity Theatre is alive and well on the L.A. Theatre Scene. Carlos Gardel was a major star in Argentina, South America, Paris, Spain and the USA decades before Eva Peron, acknowledged as the most prominent figure in the history of tango with over 300 compositions to his credit, several considered classics." "Gardel''s life from days as an obscure shopkeeper''s assistant angling for an opportunity to sing in the bar across the street, through giddy days in Hollywood and Paris until his death. Gardel liked women while Le Pera was a closeted gay man. Isabel, the woman for whom Gardel had the most long-lasting affection, Maestro, a successful entertainer who becomes Gardel''s manager and he eventually eclipses, and Maman, who never tires of reminding her son of his filial duties. Baronessa, a woman with connections who helps in exchange for Gardel''s sexual favors. Gardel resembles a series of stylized expressions associated with silent film stars" "Gardel''s Tango'', the short life of composer, singer, musical innovator and international film star Carlos Gardel, depicts his invention of modern tango with real people who impacted his life: lyricist Alfredo Le Pera, a closeted gay man; musical partner Jose Razzano, mentor to Gardel later overshadowed by his protégé; mother Berthe; long-lasting romantic partner Isabel del Valle. Over 80 years after his demise, loved and appreciated by fans the world over."

The sanctification of stardom Contemporary icons are drawn from popular culture - musicians, artists, actors, and other personalities we hear on radio or see on television, on screen, in print and in cyberspace. Today's 'gods' are media personalities, and cults surround stars and artists like Frida Kahlo, Carlos Gardel, Eva Perón, and Selena. Because of transnational and global trends in importing and exporting cultural products, the paintings, music, and politics that these figures crafted accrue symbolic meaning in multiple formats. By viewing them through the lens of performance art we can begin to see how their polyvalent personas were first molded and perfected for the public through paintings, tangos, politics, and Tejano music. Once they fashioned their own complex images, these multi-layered icons continued to travel after death over international boundaries, gendered divisions, political borders, and language barriers. Their reincarnation on stage has allowed dramatists to affix and generate new associations, thus converting them into secular saints for contemporary audiences. SARAH M. MISEMER lectures in Hispanic Studies at TexasA&M University, College Station.
