内容简介 Book Description
Drawing on extensive research and candid interviews with many of the leading figures in both Washington and Hollywood, this intriguing book explores the mutual attraction between two breeds of celebrities, the motives behind it, and the sometimes surreal resonance that attraction creates in contemporary American politics. The players range from Louis B. Mayer and Herbert Hoover to Frank Sinatra and John F. Kennedy, from the Hollywood Ten to Ronald Reagan. The issues raised cut to the heart of our body politic: In what kind of society is Charlton Heston chosen to explain foreign policy? What sort of people prefers being entertained to being represente? And how did Hollywood replace New Hampshire as the first stop for any would-be President?
