Fortune in My Eyes: A Memoir of Broadway Glamour Social Justice and Political Passion (Applause Books) - Softcover
Reseña del editor
David Rothenberg's multi-layered life thrust him into Broadway's brightest lights, prison riots, political campaigns, civil rights sit-ins, and a Central American civil war. In his memoir, Fortune in My Eyes, his journey includes many of the most celebrated names in the theatre: Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor, Bette Davis, Sir John Gielgud, Charles Boyer, Peggy Lee, Eartha Kitt, Charles Laughton, Alvin Ailey, and numerous others. He produced an Off-Broadway prison drama, Fortune and Men's Eyes, which reshaped his life. John Herbert's chilling play led directly to the creation of the Fortune Society, which has evolved into one of the US' most formidable advocacy and service organisations in criminal justice. Rothenberg was Elizabeth Taylor's opening night date at the Richard Burton Hamlet - a distant cry from his entering Attica prison during that institution's famed inmate uprising; these are just two of the experiences revealed in this memoir. As a theatre publicist and producer - and as a social activist - he shares experiences with politicians and with anonymous men and women, out of prison, who have fought to reclaim their lives. The human drama of the formerly incarcerated that unfolds in this book is a match for many of the entertainment world's most fabled characters.
Biografía del autor
DAVID ROTHENBERG has been involved with more than 200 Broadway and Off-Broadway productions, as publicist or producer. His production of John Herbert's prison drama led to the creation of the Fortune Society, one of the US' leading advocacy and service organisations in criminal justice. Rothenberg represented some of the most successful theatre offerings in the second half of the 20th century, including the original production of Hair, Richard Burton's Hamlet, Beyond the Fringe, Blue Man Group, John Gielgud's production of The School for Scandal, Harold Pinter's The Birthday Party, and several plays by Edward Albee and Tennessee Williams. Rothenberg conceived, directed, and co-authored the play The Castle, which played Off-Broadway for 13 months (2011-2012).
