Description
Tab Hunter Confidential: The Making of a Movie Star In the 1950s, Hollywood was at the height of its power, and a young man with a certain charm was discovered by a big-time movie agent. His face adorned hundreds of magazine covers, and he became a household name. But behind the scenes, Tab Hunter was struggling to come to terms with his fame and the secrets that came with it. Hunter's rise to stardom was swift, but it was also a product of the era in which he lived. He was treated like a commodity, with his every move scrutinized and controlled by the studios. As he navigated the complexities of his career, Hunter also had to confront his own identity - including his struggles with his sexuality. In this candid and introspective memoir, Hunter shares his story for the first time, offering a unique glimpse into the world of old Hollywood and the pressures that came with being a movie star.
