Book Description
From the diaries of a Playboy model, experience the swingin' 70's from behind the guarded gates of the Playboy Mansion West. After being chosen as one of the original Playboy Models, Dianne is soon invited to join the elite group at the Sunday afternoon barbeques at Hef's. Dazzled by a wonderland of celebrities and glamour, she is now rubbing elbows with Warren Beatty, Dustin Hoffman, Joe Namath, Ryan O'Neal and the beautiful people. The sexual revolution is in full swing and opportunities abound at Hef's new Shangri-la in Holmby Hills. The game room has a private bedroom, the infamous grotto with piped in music has the Jacuzzi and of course there's the legendary upstairs master bedroom. The line between fantasy and reality soon begins disappearing within her new life. She has found herself in this fantasy world after a heartbreaking end to a love affair with a major league baseball player in Orange County. Hollywood had seemed like the place to mend her broken heart. Ignoring her boyfriend's warnings about "the casting couches" she strikes out alone to find out for herself. As a naive small town girl diving head first into the allure of Hollywood, initially each adventure seems more exciting than the next. Soon she is jetting off to Vegas with Telly Savalas' Kojak gang. She is sharing an after show cocktail with Johnny Carson in his dressing room backstage. And her best friend is dating Elvis. It's one icon after another and some of the experiences are shocking. Sadly, she begins to realize the perverted reality of tinseltown as even the legendary George Burns inquires "You'd drop your panties for an acting job wouldn't you?" After a second appearance on a Bob Hope Show she reflects on the endless disappointments and constant rejections. Now only one question has to be answered. Is it worth it?

Playboy and the Making of the Good Life in Modern America
Author: Elizabeth Fraterrigo
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190452633
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Launched by Hugh Hefner in 1953, Playboy promoted an image of the young, affluent, single male-the man about town ensconced in a plush bachelor pad, in constant pursuit of female companionship and a good time. Spectacularly successful, this high-gloss portrait of glamorous living and sexual adventure would eventually draw some one million readers each month. Exploring the world created in the pages of America's most widely read and influential men's magazine, Elizabeth Fraterrigo sets Playboy's history in the context of a society in transition. Sexual mores, gender roles, family life, notions of consumption and national purpose-all were in flux as Americans adjusted to the prosperity that followed World War II. Initially, Playboy promised only "entertainment for men," but Fraterrigo reveals that its vision of abundance, pleasure, and individual freedom soon placed the magazine at the center of mainstream debates about sex and freedom, politics and pleasure in postwar America. She shows that for Hugh Hefner, the "good life" meant the "playboy life," in which expensive goods and sexually available women were plentiful, obligations were few, and if one worked hard enough, one could enjoy abundant leisure and consumption. In support of this view, Playboy attacked early marriage, traditional gender arrangements, and sanctions against premarital sex. The magazine also promoted private consumption as a key to economic growth and national well-being, offering tips from "The Playboy Advisor" on everything from high-end stereos and cuff-links to caviar and wine. If we want to understand post-war America, Fraterrigo shows, we must pay close attention to Playboy, its messages about pleasure and freedom, the debates it inspired, and the criticism it drew--all of which has been bound up in the popular culture and consumer society that surround us.

Book Description
In the vein of Running with Scissors, Playground is the glitzy, glamorous, and surreal true story of a young girl who grew up inside the Playboy Mansion and never learned where the party stopped and the real world began. You are six years old. Every day after school your father takes you to a sprawling castle filled with exotic animals, bowls of candy, and half-naked women catering to your every need. You have your own room. You have new friends. You have an uncle Hef who's always there for you. Welcome to the world of Playground, the true story Jennifer Saginor who grew up inside the Playboy Mansion. By the time she was fourteen, she'd done countless drugs, had a secret affair with Hef's girlfriend, and was already losing her grip on reality. Schoolwork, family, and "ordinary people" had no meaning behind the iron gates of the Mansion, where celebrities frolicked, pool parties abounded, and her own father—Hugh Hefner's personal physician and best friend, the man nicknamed "Dr. Feel Good"—typically held court. Every day was a party, every night was an adventure, and through it all was a young girl falling faster and faster down the rabbit hole—trying desperately hard not to get lost.

Pages : 244
Book Description
Everyone who has ever thought about writing or working in Hollywood will want to read this book. These are the personal and often outrageous adventures of a veteran screenwriter who has worked extensively for the major studios, as well as with major directors such as Richard Donner and James Cameron. There are abundant writing lessons to be learned here, but "life" lessons, as well. In fact, this story is about "getting over" Hollywood, more than just "getting into" Hollywood. Readers looking past the material or superficial (e.g., celebrity) for something more meaningful in their lives, will find this book truly uplifting. "If youre thinking of being a screenwriter, jamming all your possessions into a subcompact and driving cross-country, then it behooves you to read Carters experiences."
