Product Description

Film journalist Daniel O' Brien turns his gaze on the sky–rocketing career of Oscar–winning actress Halle Berry.

From the Publisher

Born in Cleveland in 1968, Halley Berry first gained the public’s attention in 1986 as a runner–up in the Miss USA Pageant. When she turned to acting, her career took off with a key role in Spike Lee’s 1991 film Jungle Fever. It wasn’t until 1999, however, with her Golden Globe–winning performance in Introducing Dorothy Dandridge, that she began to make a real impact in the film world. Major roles suddenly beckoned. In 2001, she was cast in the smash–hit X–Men, and in 2002, she delivered her extraordinary, Oscar–winning performance in Monster’s Ball. Berry next crossed paths with Pierce Brosnan in the James Bond extravaganza Die Another Day. In Halle Berry, Daniel O’ Brien gives us a fascinating glimpse of an actress on her way to the top. The author’s most recent books are The Hannibal Files and Cameron Diaz.
