StarCatcher: A True Life Hollywood Fantasy
This book is about quotes and the headliners who made them. Author John Frederick met, interacted, or worked with some of the most famous, fascinating figures of the day, and was privileged to elicit (or overhear) comments that may give readers a totally different view of such people as John Wayne. While we were preparing for what would be his last film, the author asked Duke what had been the single most difficult thing to accept or overcome in his fifty year career. “Keeping your innocence and enthusiasm in the face of terrible rejection,” he answered. This probably does not match up with most people’s view of John Wayne. Almost every story in this book is fresh and new, never seen before.
What People Are Saying!
I mix humor and insight with stories based on the quotes of the famous, that reveal more about them than you have ever seen before. In short, StarCatcher is a winner all the way and goal for this book is to sell a million copies, become the world’s oldest overnight sensation…and to hopefully, provide several million laughs.
