About this title

Review:

MGM's great lady was a bit of an Irish cutup, radiant, funny, brave, and smart. Michael Troyan knows that, and has written a most entertaining book about my friend, Greer. - Gregory Peck ""Film buffs will enjoy learning the inside story behind Garson's many memorable performances, including Pride and Prejudice, Random Harvest, and That Forsyte Woman."" - New York Times Book Review ""In a definitive biography, Troyan takes readers from Eileen Evelyn Greer Garson's birth in London in 1904 to her death in Dallas in 1996 as she held the hand of her good friend, the pianist Van Cliburn."" - Publishers Weekly ""A sweet, contained view of Louis B. Mayer's favorite actress and Hollywood's icon of WWII fortitude."" - Kirkus Reviews
