Book Launch "Rebecca: The Making of a Hollywood Classic"

Just want to let everybody know that I have recently published my non-fiction book "Rebecca: The Making of a Hollywood Classic" available on Amazon in print and e-book format. The summery is below. And if anyone would like to download a free review copy please let me know.


The making of the classic, Oscar® winning 1940 film "Rebecca" is recounted in this revealing behind the scenes book which details how the master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock and legendary producer David O. Selznick ("Gone With the Wind") teamed up to create this timeless romantic thriller, based on Daphne du Maurier's novel. The off-screen drama between Selznick and Hitchcock and among the film's cast members is brought to light. The creativity, brilliance and sometimes unorthodox methods that went into the making of this iconic movie are explored in detail. Biographical sketches of Hitchcock, Selznick, cast members and other key figures are included along with trivia and anecdotal reminiscences that range from colorful to shocking.
