Legations-Sekretär in Berlin, erhielt: ‚Vorstellung vorüber - fünfmal gerufen - Applaus extra - Aktion sehr gut! Kalnoky.' Meine amre Maria hat nun für die vielfachen Unbilden, die sie während ihres hiesigen Engagements erdulden musste, einigen Ersatz u ich kann mit diesem Gedanken die Trennung von ihr etwas leichter ertragen! Da ich fest überzeugt bin, daß Sie Antheil an den Erlebnissen meiner Frau nehmen, war ich so unbescheiden Sie mit diesen Zeilen zu belästigen! […]". - Eduard Kierschner war mit seiner Schauspielkollegin Marie Weishappel verheiratet. - Gefaltet.

Bound in the original black pictorial wraps printed in red and white. Bound in the original blue pictorial wraps printed in white and pale yellow. From the publisher: "Bruce Kimmel has managed to eke out a career in one form of show business or another for over forty years. A successful Grammy-nominated record producer Kimmel began his show business journey as an actor in a time when being a young up-and-coming thespian was fun thrilling and when anything seemed possible. It was a different world for a young actor in the 1970s and Kimmel's journey is paved with laughs tears success and an amazing cast of players. At twenty-seven he wrote co-directed and starred in a film that would become a major cult success The First Nudie Musical. He did TV pilots guest shots series plays. He met and worked with incredible people. It was the kind of time we will never see again. And then things changed. The nature of the business changed. And the path to dealing with those changes-getting older trying to survive in an ever increasingly negative and cutthroat world-becomes a story of reinvention and rebirth. Through it all Kimmel tells his tale with wit candor affection and self-effacing honesty. Enjoy being the fly on the wall as Kimmel hangs out with Elsa Lanchester Christopher Isherwood and Don Bachardy; goes to Groucho's house and plays the piano for him; works with Shirley Jones David Cassidy Susan Dey on The Partridge Family. We observe his long friendship with Cindy Williams watch as he works with screen legends Patricia Neal Jean Simmons Leslie Nielsen Patrick Macnee Bud Cort and Geraldine Fitzgerald and as he hangs out with Hugh Hefner at the Playboy mansion. Bruce Kimmel's showbiz tales are loaded with laughs wide-eyed wonder and heart.". First Edition. Softcover. New condition/No dust jacket as issued. Illus. by NOT a library discard. 414pp. Great Packaging Fast Shipping. AuthorHouse Paperback

New York: AuthorHouse 2012. SIGNED and dated "3/27/12" by the AUTHOR directly on the title page. SIGNED copies are SCARCE especially in condition as nice as this. NEW in a NEW dust jacket. PERFECT condition. NO chips tears creases rubbing or fading. Sharp corners. Bright shiny clean square and tight. Hinges are flawless. NO owner's name or bookplate. NOT a remainder. Pages are fresh crisp clean and unmarked. Photo illustrated. Bound in the original dark blue boards lettered in bright gold. From the dust jacket: "Just as Frank Sinatra had an additional and invaluable career as the great preservationist and evangelist of the American popular song with particular focus on the Lost and Found so author-actor-singer-director Bruce Kimmel has additionally served the cause of Broadway and Hollywood beyond measure producing some of the most memorable vocalists of our time in recordings that give new life to music that might otherwise be forgotten while renewing and revitalizing the theatrical canon with his impeccable taste and unerring musicality. In his usual engaging and endearing style he at last gives us a first-hand view of his process. For this terrific chronicle and for his immeasurable contribution to musical theatre we can only give our most inadequate thanks." -- Rupert Holmes Tony and Edgar award-winning playwright and novelist. "Bruce Kimmel's rollicking memoir THERE'S MEL THERE'S WOODY AND THERE'S YOU left his fans begging for more. Thankfully the theatre gods are kind and answered our prayers. Actor director composer playwright novelist film-maker.and good at all of them Kimmel has reinvented himself more times than Madonna and had more lives than a cat. IN ALBUM PRODUCED BY. he now shape-shifts into what may be his greatest theatrical incarnation-as the foremost album producer of theatre music in the last twenty-five years. Through time and labels his amazing career fluctuates with more highs and lows than the sliding dials on a soundboard and is sweetened with the usual Kimmel witlaced raconteurism.Whether working with the greats Carol Channing Lauren Bacall Dorothy Louden Ann-Margret to name a few or promoting and often discovering the next big musical stars of Broadway our intrepid hero battles less than-visionary bosses broken promises harried orchestrators enraged engineers the occasional disgruntled diva and the mysterious crooner Guy Haines. But he manages to defeat all obstacles and egos in his way emerging triumphant to dance in divine syncopation with the glorious music he creates. To know the stories behind all those wonderful albums is to listen to them with fresh ears and a new appreciation of the talent tears and genius that went into them." -- Charles Edward Pogue screenwriter of Dragonheart DOA & The Fly.
