Hollywood Life: The Fabulous Homes of Vintage Hollywood by Eliot Elisofon
Just released in March this book looks like a faaabulous inside scoop on the kooky interiors of Hollywood houses over the years. In fact a review on Amazon says ” A fascinating compendium of bad taste with charm all it’s own. Just imagine yourself cruising over to Zsa Zsa’s to borrow a cup of gems or dropping by Steve McQueen’s for a dip in the pool–or maybe you fancy a sauna with Charlton Heston? In 1969, Life photographer Eliot Elisofon gained an insider’s access to the dream homes and private lives of Hollywood’s most intriguing legends, from Mary Pickford to Natalie Wood, George Cukor to Tony Curtis. As Hollywood Life reveals, the styles of a stars’ homes are as diverse as the personalities who dwell in them…together these houses create the hodgepodge that is Hollywood style.
At least they’re honest!
