À propos de ce produit

Product Information

The complete story of the actor's career, including his secret gay life. Raymond Burr (1917-1993) was an enigma. A film noir star regularly known for his villainous roles in movies like Rear Window, he delighted millions of viewers each week with the top-rated shows Perry Mason and Ironside, which ran virtually uninterrupted for 20 years. But Burr was leading a secret gay life at a time in Hollywood when such a lifestyle was akin to career suicide. He invented a tragic biography for himself in which he was mythologized as a heartbroken husband and father. There was even an invented affair with a teenage Natalie Wood, 21 years his junior. He fought for truth as Perry Mason and Robert T. Ironside, yet he couldn't admit his own deception. Burr met his partner, struggling actor Robert Benevides, on the set of Perry Mason, and they remained together for over 35 years until Burr's death. Together, they built a business empire, traveled the world, and shared their passion for orchids and fine wine - keeping the true nature of their relationship a secret from all but their closest friends - a secret revealed here for the first time in depth.

  • Don't Hide "HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT." Read it now!

    I was always a fan of Raymond Burr, one of history's most popular stars in television. Few know that he costarred in many movie roles before PERRY MASON and IRONSIDE made him a household name and star to millions of viewers. To protect the secret of his sexual lifestyle, Burr created a dark and tragic past for himself as a grieving husband and father! He even "invented" an affair with a famous actress (you WILL know her!) who was twenty-one years his junior in order to hide the "secret" that this biography will reveal. In depth, actor Raymond Burr's secret life will be fully revealed for the first time in history. This is great "tell-all" writing by Michael Seth Starr but it does not come across as tawdry or cheap............comes highly recommended; just out in hardcover; found this great ...

  • Raymond Burr biography

    Well written, non sensational story of tv star Raymond Burr (Perry Mason, Ironside). This man was gay when "coming out" would have meant the end of his career. He had the support of gossip columnist Hedda Hopper, mother of William Hopper, who played detective Paul Drake in the Perry Mason series. Burr was talented off screen also, and invested his money wisely. He was a legendary gourmet cook. He brought and developed his own vineyard. He also loved orchids and propagated many new species of them. A complex, talented, strong man, his story is very interesting.

  • Great book! It really draws you in. It’s a book that’s hard to put down

  • Disappointed

    I was expecting to read a more in depth look into Raymond Burr but the author seems to be fixated on the actors weight. He goes out of his way to discuss it for some unknown reason. For the most part you already know about Mr Burrs life so I would skip this book.

  • His feet of clay make the subject even more sympathetic.

    A sympathetic and poignant treatment of an icon. Very well written and often surprising.
