Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. A NEAR FINE, bright, clean, tight copy sans tears, stains, discoloration, and text and illustration markings. PROLIFICALLY ILLUSTRATED in vintage black-and-white photography (many full-page) with accompanying descriptive captions. "The golden age of American Theater on Broadway comprised the years just before World War II and the three decades following. During this period, the names of stars such as Katharine Hepburn, Marlon Brando, and Ethel Merman were writ large on theater marquees, and playwrights such as Eugene O'Neill, Thorton Wilder, Tennessee Williams, and Arthur Miller offered a new play every season. Photographer Eileen Darby came onto the theater scene in 1939 and eschewed the stiff portraits and fixed tableaux that were in vogue. Her style of photographing not only onstage but also backstage and during rehearsals allowed an intimate look at the creative process of theater, and her work appeared in numerous publications, such as Cue, Playbill, and the New York Times." 208 pages. "Stars on Stage" is the culmination of Darby's work during the theater's golden age and includes dozens of previously unseen pictures of stars such as Lucille Ball, Montgomery Clift, Marlene Dietrich, Bette Davis, and Gregory Peck, as well as the peole who creaed the shows, including Rodgers and Hammerstein, Goerge Abbott, Irving Berlin, and Anita Loos."
