The official biography of the Oscar-winning actor of Cocoon, and
the great radio actor, Don Ameche. Written with the aid of the
Ameche family, this first book features over 100 rare photos and
many interviews with family and friends. Foreword by John Landis,
director of Trading Places. With over 100 pictures "Wonderful book
Your writing captured the dimension of Ameche during the years when
he was at his best. We all thank you for that. You captured his
sensitivity." - - Ted Key, creator of Hazel, and Disney
screenwriter ..".pleasing new biography. It's a lineaer, clearly
written book, based in large part on the author's privileged access
to Ameche family members and papers. Ohmart has dug out career and
personal nuggets that give intriguing pictures of Ameche (a more
complex man than his fans ever imagined), of a changing Hollywood,
and the perils of mixing career ambition with responsibilities as a
husband and father. Author Ben Ohmart (also the founder of Bear
Manor books) has put together a touching biography--not in the
sentimental sense, but in its clear-eyed view of how one man and
his family struggled against the vicissitudes of Hollywood life.
This is a very human book about a superb talent." - Filmfax
