Reviews

is chock full of photos and fascinating details of the legendary stripper and entertainer's life --<i>gaychicagonews.com</i>; Robert Strom has written the most complete, well-researched account of my mother's career--a must have reference for anyone interested in Gypsy Rose Lee. And the photographs delight. Many of them have never been published; some I've never even seen; all will return you to an era of show business when glamour reigned supreme. --Erik Preminger, son of Gypsy Rose Lee
