I love celebrity biographies of the Golden Age of Hollywood as well as the early years of TV. This bio was quite insightful, not only about Vivian Vance's well-documented "I Love Lucy" years, but gives intriguing glimpses (many chapters, in fact) of who Vivian was before Ethel, and how she dealt with being called Ethel for the rest of her life after her famous role. A rare treat to read, as it has been out of print for a while.
