Sinopse

While his presidency has been rigorously examined, Ronald Reagan's early life as an actor and union leader has remained largely unexplored. In this highly entertaining and revealing new biography, acclaimed author and film historian Marc Eliot uncovers Reagan's unlikely and often frustrating career in motion pictures as well as his unpredictable rise to the top of the Screen Actors Guild (SAG). Set against the glamorous and often combative background of Hollywood's celebrated Golden Age, Eliot's biography provides an exceptionally nuanced portrait of the man and reveals the startling origins of the legend.

Covering more than 30 years of Reagan's film and television work, Eliot sheds new light on Reagan's bachelor life, his two marriages, and his two runs as the president of SAG. It also examines his personal relationship with superagent Lew Wasserman, the crucial player who helped develop Reagan's movie-star persona, which would prove essential to his eventually becoming President of the United States.

Resumo editorial

Long before becoming the 40th president of the United States, Ronald Reagan was a Hollywood actor who appeared in over 50 films. Mark Eliot tells the story of these early years in the spotlight.

In Reagan: The Hollywood Years, Eliot covers the high and low points of his film career, including his famous turn in Knute Rockne All American, where his signature line – "Win one for the Gipper!" - was later used for political advantage. He also touches upon Reagan’s rocky first marriage to Jane Wyman and his time as the head of the Screen Actors Guild.

Voicing his own words, Eliot delivers an expressive and nuanced performance of his biography.
