Cary Grant

His signature jaw line and charismatic characters made him an American symbol. His films, including Bringing Up Baby , The Philadelphia Story , and North by Northwest , were timeless classics. However, Grant was also married five times and sustained a tortured, obsessive relationship with money. In this comprehensive book, Geoffrey Wansell traces the threads of both light and darkness in one of Holly-wood’s greatest stars. As his friend and co-star Deborah Kerr wrote, he was “one of the most outstanding personalities in the history of the cinema.”
