About this title

Synopsis

Before he turned white, and still had a nose, before scandalous kiddie sex charges and weird marriages, before money woes and widely televised humiliations, Michael Jackson was the world's most exciting show-biz legend. In this expose by celebrity biographer Darwin Porter, Blood Moon presents the first-ever complete saga of an incredible American life--the good times, the very bad times, the desperate attempt to stay on top, and the international aftermath of those lawsuits when everything, including Neverland, came crashing down. Even his loudest detractors admit that they love his music. This candid bio takes you behind closed doors to explore the star-studded, bizarre world of America's most maligned superstar. This title was nominated as a finalist by Foreword Magazine for Best Biography of 2007, and it was a Runner-Up for Book of the Year from the Hollywood Book Festival. As cited by London's Guardian & Observer, Don't Stop till you get enough. Darwin Porter's biography of Jacko isn't easy to put down. It's dangerously addictive.

About the Author

As a young boy in Florida, celebrity biographer Darwin Porter began meeting singers who included Judy Garland and Frank Sinatra when his mother worked as the "Girl Friday" for Sophie Tucker, "the last of the red-hot mammas." Previous subjects of the biographies he has written have included Katharine Hepburn, Howard ("The Aviator") Hughes, Humphrey Bogart, and Marlon Brando, which the SUNDAY TIMES of London defined as "Lurid, raunchy, perceptive, and definitely worth reading." A Hollywood columnist and radio broadcaster, and award-winning author of many current editions of the FROMMER TRAVEL GUIDES, Porter began gathering material on Michael Jackson and his family back in the 60s, interviewing everyone from hotel managers to show business personalities about their close encounters with "Jacko." When not traveling (which is rare), Porter lives in New York City.
