Often called the First Lady of Hollywood, Irene Dunne, in a long
and distinguished screen career, juggled comedies, dramas, and
musicals with aplomb, and all three genres were represented in her
five Academy Award nominations. Her television career was equally
successful, including appearances as host or guest on numerous
comedies, dramas, and variety shows. Active in many civic and
philanthropic causes, she also served as an alternate delegate to
the United Nations. All aspects of her career are documented in
this first in-depth study of her work, including much information
never previously chronicled. The opening biographical overview
features reminiscences from colleagues such as James Stewart and
Ralph Bellamy. Dunne's multiple careers on stage and in motion
pictures, radio, and television are fully detailed in separate
chapters, as are her recordings, song sheets, and numerous awards
and nominations. An annotated bibliography records the diverse
writings by and about her, and a list of magazine covers featuring
Dunne over a period of twenty years is appended. All sections are
fully cross-referenced and indexed. Photographs are also
included--ranging from her childhood to her last public appearance
as a recipient of the Kennedy Center Honors in 1985. A worthy
tribute to this talented and beloved actress, this book will be an
important source for research on Irene Dunne and her world.
