Postkarte. Grössere Postkarte von Drew Barrymore bilddseitig signiert, augenscheinlich gedruckt / pre-print /// Autogramm Autograph signiert signed signee /// Drew Blyth Barrymore (* 22. Februar 1975 in Culver City, Kalifornien) ist eine US-amerikanische Schauspielerin und Moderatorin. Sie ist zudem Model und Filmproduzentin. Drew Blyth Barrymore wurde als jüngster Spross einer Schauspielerdynastie geboren, die sich über vier Generationen erstreckt. Ihre Eltern sind die Ungarin Ildiko Jaid Makó (* 1946), die unter dem Pseudonym Jaid Barrymore bekannt wurde, und John Drew Barrymore (1932-2004). Beide waren ebenfalls Schauspieler, allerdings weniger erfolgreich als ihre Tochter. Die Mutter übernahm später die Rolle ihrer Managerin. Ihre beiden Vornamen erhielt sie als Erinnerung an ihre Urgroßeltern. Drew war der Geburtsname ihrer Urgroßmutter Georgiana (1854-1893) und Blyth der ursprüngliche Nachname ihres Urgroßvaters Maurice (1849-1905), den er in Barrymore abänderte. Die Barrymores galten in der ersten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts als renommierte Film- und Bühnenschauspieler. Drews Großeltern John Barrymore (1882-1942) und Dolores Costello (1903-1979) zählten Ende der Stummfilmzeit und zu Beginn der Tonfilmzeit zu den großen Hollywood-Stars. Ihr Großonkel Lionel Barrymore (1878-1954) und ihre Großtante Ethel Barrymore (1879-1959) waren beide Oscarpreisträger. Drew Barrymore hat drei Halbgeschwister, ihre Taufpaten sind die Schauspielerinnen Sophia Loren und Anna Strasberg sowie der Filmregisseur Steven Spielberg. Kinderdarstellerin Die 9-jährige Drew Barrymore mit dem US-Präsidenten Ronald Reagan beim Start des Programms Young Astronauts Die Schauspielerin wirkte bereits als Säugling im Alter von elf Monaten in einem Werbespot für ?Puppy Choice?-Hundefutter mit und debütierte zwei Jahre später erstmals in einem Fernsehfilm, in Suddenly, Love, an der Seite von Joan Bennett. Ihre erste Filmrolle spielte sie 1980 in Ken Russells Science-Fiction-Thriller Der Höllentrip.[1] Zwei Jahre später, im Alter von sieben Jahren, wurde sie in der Rolle der Gertie in Steven Spielbergs E.T. weltberühmt. Mit Corey Feldman bei der Oscarverleihung 1989 Im Alter von sieben Jahren war sie der bisher jüngste Star in der renommierten US-amerikanischen Comedy-Show Saturday Night Live, in der sie einen Sketch vorführte. Es folgten weitere Film- und Fernsehproduktionen wie beispielsweise die Stephen-King-Verfilmungen Der Feuerteufel und Katzenauge oder 1984 Triple Trouble, der ihr 1985 eine Nominierung für einen Golden Globe einbrachte. Dennoch kamen mit dem schnellen Ruhm auch erhebliche Probleme, die sie mit Drogen- und Alkoholexzessen in den Fokus der Öffentlichkeit brachte. Der Kinderstar betrank sich erstmals mit neun Jahren auf der Geburtstagsparty von Rob Lowe, rauchte mit zehn Jahren den ersten Joint und schnupfte mit zwölf das erste Mal Kokain.[2] Drew Barrymore verließ frühzeitig die High School und veröffentlichte nach einem gescheiterten Selbstmordversuch sowie einem Aufenthalt in einer Nervenklinik, diversen Entziehungskuren und Therapien 1990 ihre Autobiografie mit dem Titel Little Girl Lost. Comeback als junge Erwachsene Nach der Entlassung aus der psychiatrischen Klinik und überstandenen Drogen- und Alkoholproblemen kam sie zunächst bei verschiedenen Pflegefamilien unter, bezog aber aufgrund ihrer finanziellen Unabhängigkeit mit 15 Jahren ihre erste eigene Wohnung. Nach einem Karrierestillstand gelangen ihr Anfang der 1990er Jahre wieder erste Erfolge als Filmschauspielerin. Sie vollzog dabei einen kompletten Imagewechsel weg vom Kinderstar und spielte fortan selbstbewusste junge Frauen, beispielsweise als kaltblütige Verführerin in Poison Ivy - Die tödliche Umarmung oder in Guncrazy. Sie scheute auch nicht davor zurück, als Bösewicht in Erscheinung zu treten, und avancierte schnell zu einem Sexsymbol der 1990er Jahre. So posierte sie 1995 in der Januar-Ausgabe des US-Männermagazins Playboy und überraschte im selben Jahr David Letterman mit einem freizügigen Geburtstagstanz in seiner Late Show. Als Reaktion auf ihre Kapriolen schenkte ihr Spielberg zum 20. Geburtstag eine Quilt-Decke mit einer Karte zum Geburtstag, auf der ?Cover yourself up? (dt. Bedeck dich) geschrieben stand, sowie eine von seinen Spezialeffekt-Künstlern retuschierte Ausgabe des Playboys, in der sie Barrymores nackte Haut mit Kleidung übermalt hatten. Dass sie auch als ernstzunehmende Darstellerin überzeugen kann, zeigte sie endgültig als eine der vier Protagonistinnen in dem mit Humor gespickten, aber sonst durchaus ernsten Western-Drama Bad Girls und spätestens mit dem Frauen-Roadmovie Kaffee, Milch und Zucker (1995), in dem sie neben Whoopi Goldberg spielte und eine durchaus tragische Figur darstellte. Für ihre Verkörperung der Casey Roberts in Mad Love - Volle Leidenschaft an der Seite von Chris O?Donnell erntete sie gute Filmkritiken, die sie als einzigen Höhepunkt dieser Hollywood-Produktion sahen.[3] Nach einem kurzen Auftritt als Sugar in Batman Forever (1995) sowie Filmrollen in Woody Allens Filmmusical Alle sagen: I love you (1996) und dem Märchenfilm Auf immer und ewig (1998) spielte sie 1996 in Wes Cravens Horrorfilm Scream mit, der ihr wohlwollende Kritiken einbrachte, vor allem aber den endgültigen Durchbruch als Schauspielerin bedeutete. Ihr Durchbruch Barrymore bei der Premiere von Glück im Spiel (2007) Für den 1998 erschienenen Kinofilm Eine Hochzeit zum Verlieben mit Adam Sandler konnte Barrymore erstmals eine Gage in Millionenhöhe für sich aushandeln; ein Jahr später wirkte sie auch hinter den Kulissen mit. Als ausführende Produzentin war sie nicht nur bei der Entstehung der Komödie Ungeküsst (1999) mit ihrer gemeinsam mit Nancy Juvonen 1995 gegründeten Firma Flower Films beteiligt, sie spielte auch die weibliche Hauptrolle der Journalistin Josie Geller. Weitere Filmproduktionen folgten, bei denen sie teils auch als Schauspielerin erfolgreich war. Großen Erfolg konnte sie mit der Actionkomödie 3 Engel für Charlie aus de.

Signed
Signed by Wayne Ayers, Author; and Nancy Ayers, Editor. Quarto, softbound (slick, full-color photo. illus. wrappers), 255 pp. Near-Fine, with sunning to spine. From lower cover: Indian Rocks Beach, Florida, or Indian Rocks as it was called in the early days, has a rich and storied past dating to prehistoric native Indian settlement in the area. The gulf and bay wters, teeming with fish, drew both Indian and later white settlers to the area, and fishing-related pursuits were to become a mainstay of the local economy up to the present day. Indian Rocks grew slowly from the time of the first recorded settler, Capt. John Lowe, in 1859, until the first boom period in the 1920s. At that time wealthy tourists -- many from Tampa -- built summer homes on the beach, and hotels and bath-houses were flourishing. The second boom came in the 1950s when newly mobile middle-class families flocked to motels on the beach, while homes were built on fingers of land dredged from Clearwater Bay. The Indian Rocks area has, from the earliest recorded periods, featured a colorful mix of people and institutions that have given the city of Indian Rocks Beach its eclectic character, which residents prize and visitors seek out year after year. This volume presents the rich heritage of the Indian Rocks community, with over 300 photographs of people and places bringing history to life. Included are landmarks such as the old swing bridge and Tiki Gardens, a fascinating photograph of the train that came to Indian Rocks Beach, and people like "Dad" Hendrick who called this island "the most beautiful place on God's green footstool."

SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, WITHOUT DEDICATION, IN BLACK PEN, ON TITLE PAGE (the pen had bled a little through to copyright page). Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners slightly bruised, not price clipped ($26.00), no other inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg++ copy. 477pp. At the age of thirty five, Fanny Van de Grift Osbourne has left her philandering husband in San Francisco to set sail for Belgium with her three children and nanny in tow to study art. It is a chance for this adventurous woman to start over, to make a better life for all of them, and to pursue her own desires. Not long after her arrival, however, tragedy strikes, and Fanny and her children repair to a quiet artists' colony in France where she can recuperate. Emerging from a deep sorrow, she meets a lively Scot, Robert Louis Stevenson, ten years her junior who falls instantly in love with the earthy, independent, and opinionated 'belle Americaine'. Fanny does not immediately take to the slender young lawyer who longs to devote his life to writing, and who would eventually pen such classics as 'Treasure Island' and 'The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde'. In time though, she succumbs to Stevenson's charms, and the two begin a fierce love affair, marked by intense joy and harrowing darkness, that spans the decades and the globe. The shared life of these two strong willed individuals unfolds into an adventure as impassioned and unpredictable as any of Stevenson's own unforgettable tales. Signed by Author(s).

The unforgettable literary detective whom Michiko Kakutani of The New York Times calls "part Bridget Jones, part Nancy Drew and part Dirty Harry" had another think coming. The love of her life has been eradicated by Goliath, everyone's favorite corrupt multinational. To rescue him Thursday must retrieve a supposedly vanquished enemy from the pages of "The Raven."

As if jumping into the likes of Kafka, Austen, and Beatrix Potter's Tale of the Flopsy Bunnies weren't enough, Thursday finds herself the target of a series of potentially lethal coincidences, the authenticator of a newly discovered play by the Bard himself, and the only one who can prevent an unidentifiable pink sludge from engulfing all life on Earth.
