Dorothy Parker in Hollywood / Gail Crowther.
"From the author of Three-Martini Afternoons at the Ritz, comes a deep dive into Dorothy Parker's years in Hollywood: her work on numerous now-classic screenplays, including A Star is Born (1937), as well as the excesses, the alcoholism, her miscarriage, the suicide of her husband, her involvement with anti-fascist and anti-racist groups that led to her ultimate blacklisting, and her early involvement in the civil rights movement that ultimately lead her to leaving her entire estate to the NAACP"-- Provided by publisher.
