Title: One Star for Kate
Product review: I had a running fascination with Katharine Hepburn from the time I was in boarding school, and wanted to be just like her. Scott Berg's appalling book reminds me of the girls in school whose pretense was soon uncovered. Using Hepburn as a vehicle for self promotion, Berg retells all the Hepburn stories that one has heard her tell in TV interviews or read previously. Preparing a manuscript and waiting for the subject's death to race it into print is clearly the work of a pretentious self-promoter. Read Hepburn herself. She is still in print. Or better still, watch her movies.
