Book contains 91 biographies, however accurrate, with filmographies of famous Hollywood personalities, mostly actors as of the mid to late-1980's. The range of personalities covered goes from a foggily seductive Clara Bow to the frighteningly young pictures of Sylvester Stallone and John Travolta. A charming and intersting look at Hollywoods A-list over the decades, but considering the material source is a rag known as The Hollywood Reporter... not exactly gospel.
