Produktinformationen zu „Fosse (ePub)“
From "a smart and savvy reporter," a biography of the award-winning performer and director that "abounds with colorful firsthand tales" (Janet Maslin, New York Times).
Now the FX limited seriesFosse/Verdonstarring Sam Rockwell and Michelle Williams with Lin-Manuel Miranda executive producing.
The only person ever to win Oscar, Emmy, and Tony awards in the same year, Bob Fosse revolutionized nearly every facet of American entertainment. His signature style would influence generations of performing artists. Yet in spite of Fosse's innumerable achievements-includingCabaret,Pippin,All That Jazz, andChicago, one of the longest-running Broadway musicals ever-his offstage life was shadowed by deep wounds and insatiable appetites.
To craft this richly detailed account, best-selling author Sam Wasson has drawn on a wealth of unpublished material and hundreds of sources: friends, enemies, lovers, and collaborators, many of them speaking publicly about Fosse for the first time. With propulsive energy and stylish prose,Fosseis the definitive biography of one of Broadway and Hollywood's most complex and dynamic icons.
