Description
There is no place more synonymous with glamour and ostentatious displays of wealth than Beverly Hills. In Among the Mansions of Eden, veteran journalist David Weddle explores this wild, fascinating community that has become part of America's mythology. Interweaving great dish and insight, he takes... Expand readers inside the old Hollywood mansions of such stars as Buster Keaton, Mary Pickford, and Douglas Fairbanks.Weddle offers a series of captivating portraits of individuals from various strata of Beverly Hills society, from the Friars Club, where until his recent death Milton Berle held court, to Beverly Hills High, where students face a level of materialism unseen in other parts of the country. He introduces a pornographer whose greatest goal in life is to be Hugh Hefner, the designer Bijan, who played a key role in making Rodeo Drive the most famous shopping street in the country, and the real estate brokers who sell homes to the Hollywood stars.Hugely entertaining and highly readable, Among the Mansions of Eden is a spellbinding tale of wealth, fame and the lust for land, power, and social status.Collapse
