Beverly Hills Spy

"A beguiling tale of espionage and double-dealing in the years leading up to World War II. ... Strap in for a narrative that demands a suspension of disbelief—and richly rewards it." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review); Best Books of February SelectionThe untold story of the World War I hero who became a fixture of high society in Golden Age Hollywood—all while acting as a double agent for the Japanese Empire as it prepared to attack Pearl HarborFrederick Rutland’s story is a rags-to-riches coup for the ages—a lower-class boy from England bootstraps his way up the ranks of the British military, becoming a World War I pilot, father of the modern aircraft carrier, cosmopolitan businessman, and Hollywood A-list insider. He oversaw this small empire from his mansion on the fabled Bird Streets of Beverly Hills. Snubbed for promotion in the Royal Air Force due to little more than jealousy and class politics, Rutland—to all appearances—continued to spin gold from straw, living an enviably lavish lifestyle that included butlers, wild parties, private clubs, and newswor­thy living . . .. . . and it was all funded by the Japanese Empire.Beverly Hills Spy reveals the story of Rutland’s life of espi­onage on behalf of the Axis, selling secrets about fleet and aircraft design to the Japanese Imperial Navy that would be instrumental in its ability to attack Pearl Harbor, while col­lecting a salary ten times larger than the best-paid Japanese admirals. Based on recently declassified FBI files and until-now untranslated documents from Japanese intelligence, Ronald Drabkin brings the scope of this unforgettable tale into full focus for the first time. Rutland hides in plain sight, rubbing elbows with Amelia Earhart and hosting galas and fundraisers with superstars like Charlie Chaplin and Boris Karloff, while simultaneously passing information to Japan through spy networks across North and Central America. Countless opportunities to catch Rutland in the act are squandered by the FBI, British Intelligence, and US Naval Intelligence alike as he uses his cunning and charm to mis­direct and cast shadows of doubt over his business dealings, allowing him to operate largely unfettered for years.In the end, whether he fully intends to or not, Rutland sets in motion world events that are so monumental, their consequences are still being felt today. Beverly Hills Spy is a masterpiece of research on spy craft, a shocking narrative about an unknown but pivotal figure in history, and brings new information to light that helps us understand how Pearl Harbor happened—and how it could have been prevented.

This exhibition catalog accompanies a survey exhibition of contemporary artist and painter Beverly McIver. Curated by Kim Boganey, this exhibition represents the diversity of McIver’s thematic approach to painting over her career. From early self-portraits in clown makeup to more recent works featuring her father, dolls, Beverly’s experiences during COVID-19 and portraits of others, Full Circle illuminates the arc of Beverly McIver’s artistic career while also touching on her personal journey. McIver’s self-portraits explore expressions of individuality, stereotypes, and ways of masking identity; portraits of family provide glimpses into intimate moments, in good times as well as in illness and death. The show includes McIver’s portraits of other artists and notable figures, recent work resulting from a year in Rome with American Academy’s Rome Prize, and new work in which McIver explores the juxtaposition of color, patterns, and the human figure.

The complementary exhibition, In Good Company, includes artists who have mentored McIver, such as Faith Ringgold and Richard Mayhew, as well as those who have studied under her.

Beverly of Graustark

Beverly of Graustark

George Barr McCutcheon

Wildside Press
2025
pokkari
The fiction of George Barr McCutcheon (1866-1928) proved so popular in his day that he, along with Anthony Hope, the author of "The Prisoner of Zenda," invented a whole new genre, now called the "Graustarkian novel," a charming product of a more innocent time when the Balkans could be the scene of adventurous romances set in imaginary countries. McCutcheon's Graustark no doubt borders Hope's Ruritania and Avram Davidson's more recent Scythia-Pannonia-Transbalkania. It was a place where an American adventurer could find himself or herself adrift, but rapidly caught up in intrigues, captures and escapes, and the perilously-hinged destiny of (at the very least) a royal throne or two. "Beverly of" is the one entrty in this best-selling series, which also includes "Graustark," "The Prince of Graustark," and "GraustarkTruxton King."

"Beverly Hills, 90210"

"Beverly Hills, 90210"

E. Graham McKinley

University of Pennsylvania Press
1997
pokkari
In 1990 the fledgling Fox television network debuted its prime-time soap opera Beverly Hills, 90210, which was intended to appeal to viewers in their late teens and early twenties. Before long, not only did the network have a genuine hit with a large and devoted audience but the program had evolved into a cultural phenomenon as well, becoming a lens through which its youthful viewers defined much of their own sense of themselves. By an overwhelming majority the fans were female-young women between eleven and twenty-five whose experience of the program was addictive and intensely communal. They met in small groups to watch the program, discussing its plot and characters against the backdrops of their own ongoing lives. Wondering what this talk accomplished and what role it played in the construction of young female viewers' identities, Graham McKinley found several groups who watched the program and questioned them about the program's significance. Extracting generously from actual interviews, McKinley's investigation has the urgency of a heart-to-heart conversation, with rich anecdotal moments and revelations of self.

Beverly Hills Buddha: The True Story of an Enlightened Rogue

David Traub

Image Masters, Inc
2017
nidottu
From wild orgies on the open seas to the depths of human suffering to the heights of spiritual enlightenment-you couldn't ask for a better Hollywood script. In the late 1950s, David Traub, a high school student selling door to door in his spare time, was making five times what the average head of household made in this country. He was still a teenager when he'd made his first million. By his early twenties, he'd increased that many, many times over. He had magnificent mansions, a fleet of high-priced cars, and a custom-built yacht. People who met him were astonished that a man so young ran a company so large. Long before the invention of frequent-flier miles, he was jetting to Europe on a regular basis. He rubbed shoulders with famous people and other body parts with beautiful women. His sexual exploits spanned decades and ranged from swinging-singles orgies at infamous sex-party houses to his dalliance with Dustin Hoffman's nanny who was half his age. He owned champion show dogs, racehorses, and priceless art treasures. And then he lost it all. He went from flying to his oceanfront estate in Hawaii to not being able to pay the heating bill on his last mansion. In the aftermath, when he wasn't sure if even life itself was worth the effort, he had a chance encounter with a Buddhist Zen Master, and his focus on what's really important changed-from outer trappings to inner peace. Beverly Hills Buddha is a true story, with a cast of characters ranging from Charo to Earl Flynn's wingman to a lesbian couple who engaged in S&M sexual acts for passengers aboard his yacht. David lived it all. Now, he's ready to share the story of his incredible journey, a fascinating rags-to-riches-to-rags saga and a spiritual odyssey. A must read for anyone who came of age during the sexual revolution "Every now and then a book comes along that captivates its readers in a way few others do, however, Beverly Hills Buddha is such a book." Actor Martin Landau

Teddy Chessman got his own studio.Why? Because Teddy controls the most important motion picture property to hit town since agents were invented. And attached to this expected critical and financial bonanza is the biggest female action star in the world, Valentine Jones.But good plans die horrible deaths, and foolproof ones, worse. And now, the guy who loaned Teddy the money to buy the joint--Rail Black, a former Delta Force operator with a private fortune--is forced to take possession of Teddy's dream. And the bad news is just beginning.Exploding from ninety years in the past--when gangsters and movie tycoons roamed Hollywood and scratched each other's wallets--Rail is sucked into a quicksand of unsettled scores, duplicity and death, where a couple of billion dollars in boxoffice seems like small change.From Southern California to New York, Venice, Havana, Mexico and Cyprus, Rail must disentangle the past from the present and come to terms with his feelings for Barrie Fontaine, a long dead woman--and extraordinarily brave pilot--he has never met.And somewhere, out there, is Matty Aspirins, a hitman on a mission all his own.Welcome to Beverly Hills is Burning.There will be no intermission."Neil Russell is the king of adventure thrillers... BEVERLY HILLS IS BURNING is a tour-de-force of hot action, cool suspense, and steamy sex. ...a once-in-a-lifetime ride with producers, screenwriters, Mafia hitmen, and money. Lots of money. You'll love this book."Gayle LyndsNew York Times Bestselling AuthorThe Book of Spies"I just want to tell you what a joy it was to dig into BEVERLY HILLS IS BURNING. I loved the way the two plot lines dovetailed so effortlessly. Your knowledge of old Hollywood made my favorite era in the town come to life. I laughed out loud so many times, I couldn't keep count Your dialogue so reminds me of Raymond Chandler. I felt he was your "ghost." Every time I came across one of your many metaphorical gems, I had to post it on Facebook. I've got you up there as one of my five favorite writers (including Chandler, as you already know); toss in F.Scott, Le Carre, and Martin Cruz Smith, and there you have my perfect poker game. And either you or Chandler would be winner take all, no doubt about it. Seriously, you are my new fave regarding dialogue. Smooth as butter, true to character, no matter the gender, personality, or the time period. You had me at the very first line--and kept me until the last word.

Beverly Fresh – Really Somethin Else

Julie Rodrigues Widho

Dapaul Art Museum
2019
nidottu
An experimental “expanded catalog” chronicling the recent work and 2018 solo exhibition of artist Beverly Fresh, Really Somethin Else not only documents and contextualizes the work in the exhibition, but also includes research, sketches, production stills, inspirations, and other works not on view in the exhibition. In these works, artist, musician, and back-road drifter Beverly Fresh takes on the incongruities, social rituals, and archetypes of the rural Midwest. Drawing from age-old performance traditions, juvenile graffiti, backyard debauchery, adult social clubs, amateur living room theater, and pig wrestling, the exhibition is a keyed-up regurgitation of rural Midwestern symbols, behaviors, and vernacular. Plentiful color images are accompanied by essays from Julie Rodrigues Widholm, H. Peter Steeves, and Greg Scott. The catalog, designed by Beverly Fresh himself, carries the distinct personality and aesthetic sensibility of the exhibition.
