Gloria Swanson defined what it meant to be a movie star, but her unforgettable role in Sunset Boulevard overshadowed the true story of her life. Now Stephen Michael Shearer sets the record straight in the first in-depth biography of the film legend. Swanson was Hollywood's first successful glamour queen. Her stardom as an actress in the mid-1920s earned her millions of fans and millions of dollars. Realizing her box office value early in her career, she took control of her life. Soon she was not only producing her own films, she was choosing her scripts, selecting her leading men, casting her projects, creating her own fashions, guiding her publicity, and living an extravagant and sometimes extraordinary celebrity lifestyle. She also collected a long line of lovers (including Joseph P. Kennedy) and married men of her choosing (including a French marquis, thus becoming America's first member of "nobility"). As a devoted and loving mother, she managed a quiet success of raising three children. Perhaps most important, as a keen businesswoman she also was able to extend her career more than sixty years. Her astounding comeback as Norma Desmond in Billy Wilder's Sunset Boulevard catapulted her back into the limelight. But it also created her long-misunderstood persona, one that this meticulous biography shows was only part of this independent and unparalleled woman.

Jack Swanson's autobiographical fast-paced book that powerfully captures the "art fever" that enthralled the American public over the past two decades. Swanson, a colorful entrepreneur & great storyteller, recalls his reckless youth in South Texas, Marine Corp days in the Far East, the opening of his own gallery chain at the age of twenty-eight, & his twenty-five years in the art gallery business. CONFESSIONS OF AN ART DEALER carefully reflects an insider's view into the art world combined with a firsthand account of the billion dollar Salvador Dali art fraud. Swanson's style is funny, provocative & uplifting as he tells of his romantic exploits laced with revealing tales about the changing stable of artists he worked with over the years. CONFESSIONS OF AN ART DEALER includes all the elements of great drama from sex, drugs, conspiracies, fame to courtroom face-offs. As we learn how Swanson turned his retail art gallery business into a multimillion dollar enterprise, we also discover how hundreds of gallery owners successfully conspired to sell bogus prints to an unsuspecting public--secrets the gallery industry would prefer to have swept under the rug. (Swanson is quick to point out that he never sold any of the bogus prints mentioned in his expose). This art scam went on for twenty years before the federal indictments were finally issued. As informative as it is entertaining, CONFESSIONS is an almost impossible autobiography to put down. This book has it all--the quest for love, the backdrop of San Francisco & Northern California, told by an art dealer who lives life to the fullest with his "Midas touch."

The ultimate Hollywood story revealed: the sizzling relationship between Joseph Kennedy, patriarch of America’s most influential political family, and Gloria Swanson, one of the most prominent silent film stars of her day. Gloria and Joe were in love with each other and with the movies, especially Queen Kelly, which completed the real-life ménage à trois. Starring along with the star of the screen and the Boston Brahman in this exposé are Erich von Stroheim, Kennedy’s wife Rose, Swanson’s husband, and a cast of colorful hangers-on. Madsen recreates their love, scandal, and world, which in its extravagance and intrigue has never been surpassed.

Take a delightful journey down memory lane with a one-room school student, Marilyn Hansen-Swanson, who shares her memories of being a student, then a teacher in rural Michigan during the mid 1900's, when one-room schools dotted the landscape. From riding to school in the back of a horse-drawn sleigh, to learning cursive using the Palmer method, to singing songs from the Golden Book of Songs, to celebrating holidays with handmade crafts and creativity, Marilyn offers a window into history when one teacher taught several grade levels in one room and explored more than just reading, writing and arithmetic. Once a regular part of our American educational system, one-room schools now exist only as a memory, yet a memory richly preserved in this warm, funny and valuable memoir. Also includes 19 pages of interviews with others who attended one-room shoolhouses.
