Book Description

Publication Date: October 5, 1999

Unparalleled in elegance and glamour on or off-screen, Hollywood legend Katharine Hepburn created the archetype of the smart, stylish, modern 20th-century woman. From her indelible performances in "Little Women, " "Stage Door, " "The Philadelphia Story" and "Holiday" to her unforgettable, Academy Award-winning performances in "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, " "The Lion in Winter" and "On Golden Pond, " Hepburn's screen life is among the most memorable of the century. Off-screen, her life was almost more fascinating than on, from her rule-bucking in Hollywood to her legendary, then-scandalous romance with co-star Spencer Tracy. Katharine Hepburn: A Stylish Life, with more than 125 glorious photographs -- many rarely seen -- and text drawn from numerous candid interviews with the elegant actress, lovingly traces the influence of this Hollywood original.
