An illustrated biography of one of the greatest composers and conductors of the 20th century, Marvin Hamlisch, for any young reader who loves music, the theater, and movie scores. As only the second person in history to be awarded the PEGOT (Pulitzer, Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony), Marvin Hamlisch has quite an incredible story. This graphic novel adaptation of the biography of the renowned musician, composer, and conductor also includes his family’s flight from Nazi-occupied Austria and their immigration to the United States. Accepted into the prestigious Juilliard music school at age 6, Marvin had to work hard to overcome intense anxiety before every performance. Despite his struggles and his self-doubt, he celebrated his first radio hit in his teens, wrote songs for a young Liza Minelli, worked with Barbra Streisand on Funny Girl, and won his first major award before the age of 30.

Marvin Miller changed major league baseball and the business of sports. Drawing on research and interviews with Miller and others, Marvin Miller, Baseball Revolutionary offers the first biography covering the pivotal labor leader's entire life and career. Baseball historian Robert F. Burk follows the formative encounters with Depression-era hard times, racial and religious bigotry, and bare-knuckle Washington and labor politics that prepared Miller for his biggest professional challenge--running the moribund Major League Baseball Players Association. Educating and uniting the players as a workforce, Miller embarked on a long campaign to win the concessions that defined his legacy: decent workplace conditions, a pension system, outside mediation of player grievances and salary disputes, a system of profit sharing, and the long-sought dismantling of the reserve clause that opened the door to free agency. Through it all, allies and adversaries alike praised Miller's hardnosed attitude, work ethic, and honesty.Comprehensive and illuminating, Marvin Miller, Baseball Revolutionary tells the inside story of a time of change in sports and labor relations, and of the contentious process that gave athletes in baseball and across the sporting world a powerful voice in their own games.

Winner of the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Play, the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Off-Broadway Play, the John Gassner Award for Best New American Play, and the Dramatists Guild Hull-Warriner Award, and a Major Motion Picture starring Meryl Streep, Diane Keaton, and Leonardo DiCaprioThe tale of one family's journey through humor and heartache, separation and self-discovery, Marvin's Room examines the ties that bind families together... whether they like it or not. Good-hearted Bessie has been taking care of her ailing father for twenty years, but now she's the one who's sick, and she must reconcile with her estranged sister, Lee. A remarkably humorous and tender play, this critically acclaimed family drama was dubbed by The New York Times as "one of the funniest plays of the year, as well as one of the wisest and most moving."
What a pickle! Marvin is a small pet who falls from the family car, bumps his head, and forgets everything but his name. He can't even remember what kind of animal he is, and the wild animals he encounters are no help, as he "doesn't seem to be from around here". His identity, and how to get back home, are mysteries. While trying to survive in the wild, Marvin joins with a rabbit who is on a journey to solve a mystery of his own, this one about a traumatic incident from his past. The two then gain an unforgettable companion, a feisty, wisecracking raccoon, whose bravery and humor make up for her rudeness. The trio face many dangers and adventures along the way, but none of those prepare them for what they find at their destination. There, the rabbit finds some answers, but Marvin has to face the biggest and most dangerous challenge of his life...one that may lead him to some answers of his own...or not! This book is most appropriate for children between 8 and 11 years old.
This book is a work for young children. It was inspired by Christi Franklin and dedicated to children everywhere. Marvin is a moose calf who has no friends. His mother suggests he do good deeds without telling anyone about them. He begins doing good deeds and during the course of the next few months, he meets Mrs. Wolf and her pups, Mrs. Grizzly and her cubs, and Curly. Together they develop friendships.
