4.0 out of 5 stars Edu-tainment, 29 Jan 2000
This book is interesting if you wish to research a certain personality's history. The book provides an interesting insight into the personal and working lives of many celebrities and directors, including limited work history and references to other people that the person has worked with. A photograph is available for each person of the 500 or so listed in the book. Invaluable for the movie buff. Let me know what you think.
