Hardback edition with picure cover, almost as new condition, only minor shelfwear to DJ. Features early B&W pics. All proceeds raised will help fund palliative care at the hospice., Those expecting a vicious Hollywood tell-all from Stefan Kanfer's Ball of Fire: The Tumultuous Life and Comic Art of Lucille Ball will be disappointed. Kanfer, whose past work includes a biography of Groucho Marx and a history of the animation industry, comes to his famous red-headed subject with admiration, and readers will be drawn by his exuberance for early film and television history.

Kanfer opens with a brief recounting of Ball's tragic childhood (her father died of typhoid when she was three years old) and her early career as a starving model in New York City. The significant portion of the book begins, however, when Ball gets her first offer for a stint of film work in California and finds herself launched on a moderately successful film career. Here Kanfer provides details of the inner workings of United Artists, Columbia and RKO as Ball does battle with Ginger Rogers, Kathryn Hepburn and a host of other young actresses struggling for screen time. But, as Kanfer notes, it was in television that Ball made her great mark, starring with her husband Desi Arnaz. I Love Lucy debuted in 1951, and readers will delight in Kanfer's behind-the-scenes details of the show's production. The first situation comedy to be filmed before a live audience, Lucy offered countless challenge--technical, professional and personal--for the volatile couple.

Kanfer argues that Ball is one of the few truly enduring television personalities to emerge from the early years of television. His book, entertaining as it is educational, does much to secure her legacy. --Patrick O'Kelley, Amazon.com
