The sultry blonde bombshell rocketed to stardom for Paramount Pictures only for it all to spiral out of control and be over in a flash. By age twenty-nine, Veronica was washed up with her career on the ash heap of movie history. Her climb to the top started with her dominating mother pouring everything into her daughter's future for the sake of her career until ending tragically after years of personal struggles with paranoid schizophrenia and alcoholism that set her on a path of self-destruction and put her so far out of reach that not even her mother's love could save her in the end. Fully revised and expanded, this authorized, intimate biography, featuring exclusive interviews with Lake's mother, friends and co-workers, tells the entire, unvarnished truth of the rise and fall of one of the silver screen's most beloved beauties. Copious new discoveries, revelations, personal stories and insights; scores of previously unknown unproduced and rumored starring feature films and television projects and undocumented radio and television appearances; and a full accounting of her off-Broadway and legitimate stage work in the United States and abroad illuminate this richly detailed 730-page volume, including 442 illustrations-many never-before published-from private and personal collections, in what is the most complete record ever written about this fallen star's life and career.

I started writing poetry in junior high school as a part of creative writing class and continued ever since. This is my personal journey through love, relationships, marriages, and depression over 50 years. My poems are snapshots of feelings through the waves of my life - sometimes rolling gently against the sand of a beach and other times crashing loudly into a rocky shore.

In the early 2020s Australia was gripped by a madness which was spiritual, administrative, political, social and judicial, making headlines around the world.

In May 2003, I became involved in a doomed book project with reporter Anita Busch about the federal investigations of Los Angeles private detective Anthony Pellicano, the "Sleuth to the Stars," who had targeted Busch, among others. Directly or indirectly, usually working through a group of prominent Los Angeles attorneys, Pellicano had represented a wide variety of Hollywood celebrities, including actresses Rosanne Barr, Farrah Fawcett, and Elizabeth Taylor; actors Kevin Costner, Tom Cruise, and James Woods; corporate executives Brad Grey, Kirk Kerkorian, Michael Nathanson, Michael Ovitz, and Don Simpson, as well as Michael Jackson, George Harrison of The Beatles, and television personality Jerry Springer, among many others.My two years of "volunteer" work with Busch serves as a testament to the old adage, "No good deed goes unpunished." In fact, the fallout from this experience, especially Busch's thirteen-year smear campaign against me, continues to this day-even after Pellicano's convictions in 2008 for conspiracy and racketeering. . . . I have described this situation to friends and colleagues as "The Book Project from Hell."Hollywood Confidential is a true story about friendship and betrayal, as well as loyalty and greed-along with an offbeat new dimension to what is known about one of Hollywood's most-publicized scandals: the federal prosecution of Anthony Pellicano and his illegal wiretapping activities.

Résumé Confronté à un mouvement insurrectionnel qui embrasait tout le pays, le gouvernement de Nguenda était plongé dans la tourmente.

Les revers d'Amina est un roman dans lequel se disent bien de choses à propos du mariage appelé, en arabe, amchilini qui signifie littéralement: prenez-moi . Cette forme de mariage est pratiquée au Tchad, mais pas dans toutes les communautés. A notre connaissance, elle se pratique dans le Guéra et dans le Baguirmi; mais il n'est pas exclu qu'elle se pratique dans d'autres régions que nous ignorons, que ce soit au Tchad ou dans d'autres pays; toute chose qui pourrait donner de la force à la théorie des mêmes causes qui engendrent les mêmes effets. La question qu'un certain nombre de gens ont l'habitude de se poser est la suivante: est-ce que ce mariage aura des conséquences heureuses sur la vie des mariés ?
