"Gene Kelly was a complex person, and this biography of the star as a multi-dimensional man is the first to become available since he died in 1996. Working from new research and interviews with people who knew and worked closely with the celebrated dancer, choreographer, and director, author Alvin Yudkoff draws a portrait of an awe-inspiring yet flawed artist who was dedicated to his craft, innovative and exacting, and also fiercely competitive and controlling.".
"This story also follows Gene's relationships, and explores his uniqueness as a performer who came to Hollywood and changed the ways that dance would be integrated into the film musical. Here is a book for every lover of dance, fan of the classic Hollywood musicals, and admirer of the phenomenon that was Gene Kelly."--BOOK JACKET.
