Bing Crosby once said, “Man, woman or child, Ella Fitzgerald is the greatest!” Not only does this intimate portrait of Miss Fitzgerald make her life come alive for the reader, but every step of her career is covered in critical and minute detail. Whether one wants to know what motivated an orphaned girl of the streets to become the most beloved singer of all time, or whether one wants to know how she came to record such hits as “A-Tisket, A-Tasket”, “How High the Moon” or “Mack the Knife”, this tome is for you!
Mr. Mark spent twenty-five years researching and writing this critical look at the television career of the First Lady of Television, Lucille Ball. With forwards by Steve Allen and Lucie and Desi Arnaz, Jr., this is a treasure trove of every prime-time television appearance by Miss Ball in a career spanning more than five decades. The reader will find hysterical anecdotes, rare information, many never-before published photographs, and reminiscences by such people as Milton Berle, Gale Gordon, Jack Carter, Steve Allen, Edie Adams, Mike Connors, Doris Singleton, Mary Jane Croft, William Asher, Maury Thompson, Mary Wickes, Carole Cook, Marjorie Lord, Angela Cartwright, Keith Thibodeaux, Dick Martin and scores of others. This really is a must-have for any Lucy fan!
This very controversial book set Broadway on its ear! There are so many never-before published, risqué and sometimes shocking stories in here, some refuse to believe that it is true! Just the story of her marriage to Ernest Borgnine alone is worth the price of the book! With a foreword by her close pal Rose Marie and dozens of wonderful and rare photos, this book also gives complete discographies, videographies and listings of all of Merman’s stage shows and films.
Written with original cast member Kathy Garver (“Cissy”), this cookbook is a must for lovers of classic TV and 1960s haute cuisine! Not only does it contain recipes for every dish mentioned in every episode of the series, but memories of that episode by Kathy to go with them. There are also chapters about the fancy food of the era, the mixed drinks Uncle Bill loved back then, kid-friendly food, recipes from Kathy kitchen and mine, as well as a final chapter that tells you what happened to all of the people who worked on the show after it ended. The book is also loaded with never-before published photos!

It is long past due that this star of literally thousands of radio and television programs has his life story told.

In any event, this comedy giant is finally getting the recognition he so richly deserves, along with tons of photos you have never seen before!
