ARE THE STARS OUT TONIGHT
“Hollywood’s Greatest Star Gone But Not Forgotten.
The title is based on all of the stars who assembled at the Ambassador Hotel and Cocoanut Grove for seven decades to entertain and be entertained.
Stories include the Cocoanut Grove, the early Academy Awards where Oscar got its name, the original Golden Globes, numerous award, fashion shows, and film premiers where guests and stars thrilled to the excitement and camaraderie of those early times.
For actors, being discovered at The Grove was their step to fame. Guests were entertained by every renowned orchestra and entertainer, such as Abe Lyman, Gus Arnheim, Guy Lombardo, Paul Whiteman, Phil Harris, Harry James, Sammy Davis, featuring Ella, Bing, Lena Horne, Nat King Cole, Merv Griffin and hundreds of other headliners. They mingled with Howard Hughes, Tilden, Einstein, the Kennedys, Winchell and hundreds of other greats. Entertainers and musicians playing the Cocoanut Grove, the greatest showplace west of New York, knew they had arrived. Swimming, tennis, golf, horse shows and tournaments made the hotel a major sports capitol.
Attending Stars Night were the film industry, major producers, writers and directors, and stars Garbo, Dietrich, Barrymore, Shearer, Crawford, Bette Davis, Gable. Later when the hotel served as a location for film-making, guests were thrilled to watch their favorite actors at work. We watched Marylin Monroe winning a swim competition, several Miss Universes and other beauties crowned… and being discovered.
Films and television include: The Graduate, Pretty Woman, Marrying Man, The Baker Boys, Dallas, Cheers, Forrest Gump, Minority Report, Quantum Leap, The West Wing, The Practice, etc. featuring stars such as: Dustin Hoffman, Tom Cruise, Adam Sandler, Brad Pitt, Cameron Diaz, Kim Bassinger, Jamie Lee Curtis and Julia Roberts.

hardcover. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
