Book Review of Ava Gardner: The Secret Conversations

Ava Gardner: The Secret Conversations
boomerbooklover avatar reviewed on + 432 more book reviews


Partial autobiography/as-told-to book about her life and career. Started as a way to make money to pay the bills, the project was abruptly ended by Ava. Although he comes off well, it is suggested that Frank Sinatra paid Ava an amount equal to what she hoped to earn from the book to stop writing it. Interesting tales about various Hollywood stars, directors, and others that she worked with and/or dated.
