Considering Doris Day: A Biography

Considering Doris Day: A Biography

Tom Santopietro

St. Martin's Griffin
2008
nidottu
A revealing look at a star who was much more than just our favorite girl next door. The biggest female box office attraction in Hollywood history, Doris Day remains unequaled as the only entertainer who has ever triumphed in movies, radio, recordings, and television. But while on screen Day may have projected a wholesome image, her acting and singing range made her the role model for independent American career women for four decades. In Considering Doris Day, Tom Santopietro reveals why Day's work continues to resonate today, both in ever-increasing record sales and Hollywood lifetime achievement awards. Placing Day's work within the social context of America in the second half of the twentieth century, Considering Doris Day is smart, funny, and grants Doris Day her rightful place as a singular American artist.

Dearest Doris

Dearest Doris

Anthony Gerald Miller

Scribblers Press
2022
pokkari
Gerald Fletcher Miller served as an Army Chaplin from 1943 - 1945 in the European theater of WWII. His letters home to his wife serve as the center piece of this amazing love story that still resonates with the Miller family and all those who are exposed to this history. The chronicling of these letters by one of their son's, Anthony Gerald Miller, saves the tenderness of this man towards his wife, and gives others the unique appreciation of the history of that war from a uniquely personal point of view. Gerald's letters home trace the many places the army unit Pastor Miller was serving, as the invasion to free Europe from the grip of Nazi Germany is underway. The letters are filled with wit and observations, that transport those who were not alive when this war was fought back into those days. The pastor's sense of duty and calling, and his unbridled love for his family sends a message that every generation needs to hear and hopefully emulate.

Who Was Doris Hedges?

Who Was Doris Hedges?

Robert Lecker

McGill-Queen's University Press
2020
sidottu
Despite her trailblazing efforts to represent the work of Canadian writers to publishers in North America and abroad, Doris Hedges (1896-1972), the Montreal author who started Canada's first literary agency in 1946, is routinely excluded from Canadian literary histories. In Who Was Doris Hedges? Robert Lecker provides a detailed account of her remarkable career. Hedges published several novels, short stories, and books of poetry, moved in Montreal literary circles, did a stint as a radio broadcaster, and provided reports to the Wartime Information Board during the Second World War, possibly as an American spy. She lived a privileged life in the Golden Square Mile district of downtown Montreal with her husband, Geoffrey Hedges, a member of the Benson and Hedges tobacco empire. The more one uncovers about Hedges's life, the more one discovers a courageous figure who was exploring many of the conflicted issues of her day: the rise of juvenile delinquency, the suppression of female sexuality, the place of women in business and finance, and the difficulties confronting the publishing industry in the years leading up to and following the war. Mixing lively biographical commentary with literary analysis, Who Was Doris Hedges? is a vivid account of a writer's life and concerns during a period when Canada's literature was coming of age.
