Title: Great memories
Product review: Although the life of Katherine Hepburn has been chronicled elsewhere this is a charming book. It was written by one of close friends in the Autumn of her life and by someone who has produced great biographies of Maxwell Perkins, Goldwyn and Lindburgh.This book does not reveal anything really new about Hepburn. Most of this ground has been covered in numerous other biographies and in her Memoir. However, what Berg has done, because he interacted with her so frequnetly at times, is to give a real sense of what her personality was like. There is also a very funny story about what happened the night that Michael Jackson came to dinner. I think this is a wonderful addition to the books that Berg has already produced and look forward to reading his next effort, reportedly a life of Woodrow Wilson.
