Max Draper is the younger child in an ordinary American family
growing up in New York City. His life is as straightforward as it
can be and his family as seemingly normal as possible. There is one
thing, though. His family business, for generations, has been
prostitution. Raised in an environment that encourages honesty he
falls in love with a childhood friend, a girl named Freddy. That
love, and all that it brings with it, masks his true nature, his
homosexuality, and living that dichotomy brings him into a life he
could never have anticipated. A world of tolerance and
understanding is stretched to the breaking point as Max discovers
the reality of his friends' secrets, desires and mistakes.

movie history. He was a tall, fair-haired, classically trained
baritone from the opera and concert stage. She was a petite redhead
who had danced her way out of the chorus to become a musical comedy
star on Broadway. This unlikely pair collided almost accidentally
on a movie sound stage in the dark days of the Depression. The
sparks ignited a nation, creating some of the greatest musicals of
the Golden Age of Hollywood, films that continue to enchant and
inspire. New, revised edition in paperback.-Complete filmography
