Bestselling film historian Scott Eyman’s remarkable account of Joan Crawford's dazzling, turbulent life has landed on Fall round ups for AARP and Salon. Salon senior writer Andi Zeisler raves: “Scott Eyman’s new biography pulls together the layers of invention and reinvention that transformed malnourished Texas tomboy Lucille LeSueur into screen legend Joan Crawford with so much immediacy and Hollywood-insider detail that reading it feels like a cinematic experience in itself…It renders studio politics, contract-negotiation minutiae, costuming conflicts and production-code headaches with thrilling immediacy, note-perfect dialogue and the perfect amount of attitude.” Simon & Schuster will publish the book on November 18, 2025.
