The Tool of the Sea: The Life and Times of Anna May Wong

We remember Hepburn, Monroe, and West. They were the queens of Hollywoods Golden Era. But there's one star that's often left out even though in her time there were few more famous: Anna May Wong. She was a symbol of grace and beauty, but more importantly she broke barriers and became the first Asian American actress to be not just a star, but have international recognition. This book looks both the life and times of one of the greatest actresses of all time--from her rise to stardom to her death at 56.
