Hundreds of show business folks were born in Kentucky, had ancestors who were, moved here, married a Kentucky native, or had some other ties to the state. A fascinating book which includes hundreds of interesting tidbits of information about actors, directors, writers, dancers, singers, producers, musicians, etc., in question and answer form. For example: Q. Where was cowboy idol Gene Autry working when he was summoned to Hollywood to make his screen debut? A. It was 1934, and Autry, along with his band The Range Riders, was working for Louisville's WHAS. Q. Who else, besides Victor Mature, is a theatrical alumnus of Louisville's St. Xavier High School? A. Leo Burmeister, Bryan E. Clark, Tom Cruise, Tom Kennedy, and Jack Narz. Q. Name the actress who received the very first Tony award. A. That would be a Packard, Kentucky native, Patricia Neal. Which two pioneers of the movie industry were both born in Kentucky; one in Louisville and the other about twenty miles away in Lagrange? A. Tod Browning and D. W. Griffith. The author of this book spent many years researching these Kentucky ties, and uncovered some very obscure bits of trivia such as the fact that Marilyn Monroe and James Dean both had ancestors living on adjacent farms in Jessamine County, Kentucky in the early 1800's. A treasure trove of Kentucky related trivia, filled with all sorts of fascinating information and hundreds of photos. Signed by Author(s).
