THE ILLUSTRATED ENCYCLOPEDIA OF AUSTRALIAN SHOWBIZ
Hard to Find Out of Print Book Edited by Margot Atterton
Since the days when one of Australia's first Hollywood stars Mae Busch appeared with Laurel and Hardy, Australia has always provided the world of showbiz with some glittering sucess stories. A few decades ago it was the legendary Errol Flynn swashbuckling his name across the gossip columns as the whole world watched his incredible career. Later came homegrown talent like Rod Taylor, the Australian superstar of the sixties and today we can proudly talk of Mel Gibson, Olivia Newton-John and Bryan Brown.
The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Australian Showbiz is all about just that - and more. Within these pages is a remarkable encyclopedia of Australia's Showbiz identities, behind the scenes identities, as well as the onstage, on camera and on air performers. Cinematographers, leading technicians in sound and lighting, set designers, producers and directors - they're all listed here in alphabetical order right alongside the stars of stage, screen and media.
The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Australian Showbiz provides biographies of all these personalities and each entry lists major successes and some facsinating insights into the lives of stars. Illustrated with studio portraits and production shots to fit the face to the name, this volume is the first comprehensive illustrated directory of Australia's showbusiness personalities. Here is a book which will be a vital reference guide for anyone involved or interestd in Australian showbiz.
