Charming and classically handsome, John Gilbert (1897--1936) was among the world's most recognizable actors during the silent era. He was a wild, swashbuckling figure on screen and off, and accounts of his life have focused on his high-profile romances with Greta Garbo and Marlene Dietrich, his legendary conflicts with Louis B. Mayer, his four tumultuous marriages, and his swift decline after the introduction of talkies. A dramatic and interesting personality, Gilbert served as one of the primary inspirations for the character of George Valentin in the Academy Award--winning movie The Artist (2011). Many myths have developed around the larger-than-life star in the eighty years since his untimely death, but this definitive biography sets the record straight. Eve Golden separates fact from fiction in John Gilbert: The Last of the Silent Film Stars, tracing the actor's life from his youth spent traveling with his mother in acting troupes to the peak of fame at MGM, where he starred opposite Mae Murray, Norma Shearer, Joan Crawford, Greta Garbo, and other actresses in popular films such as The Merry Widow (1925), The Big Parade (1925), Flesh and the Devil (1926), and Love (1927). Golden debunks some of the most pernicious rumors about the actor, including the oft-repeated myth that he had a high-pitched, squeaky voice that ruined his career. Meticulous, comprehensive, and generously illustrated, this book provides a behind-the-scenes look at one of the silent era's greatest stars and the glamorous yet brutal world in which he lived.

Excerpt from A Sketch of the Life of John Gilbert: Together With Extracts From His Letters and Souvenirs of His Career HE death of John Gilbert [june 17, 1889, at Bos ton], although an event rationally to be expected - for he was close on eighty years of age - comes upon the community with a painful shock and diffuses a bleak sense of loneliness and grief. The actor, the gentleman, the friend whom we shall never any more behold in his accustomed places, had lived with us a long time; had become entwined with some of our most precious memories and associations and had grown to be as essential to the fullness of our enjoy ment as he was dear to our reverent affection. His death deprives us of a cherished source of happiness more to be realized than ever now that it must ever be deplored - breaks a tender tie of regard, and mournfully points the moral Of the evanescence of life. The grand figures with which we have been fa miliar are vanishing, one by one. The institutions and the ways of our personal world are breaking up around us. New men and new ideas and interests are thrusting aside the broken fragments of our past. The shadows darken around us.
