"There, You Have It!" is a rare and revealing collection of essays about one woman's roller coaster life. The author takes a humorous look at her childhood antics. You'll cheer for her, as the underdog in the school tennis tournament, and smile as the family boat sinks in the cold waters of Puget Sound. You'll laugh with her as her shoes disintegrate during a formal dinner at the famed Grant Hotel in San Diego; and maybe you will identify with her as she boards a plane and lands in the wrong city. From stealing milk while in kindergarten, to paying the IRS with a check from a closed account, her life has never been dull.

Stuck in poverty, she was out of step with the rest of the world until a chance encounter changed her life forever. Filled with exciting drama and rich characterization of a bygone era. Travel with the author as she looks back over eighty eventful years on a journey "I really wouldn't have wanted to miss." Rejoice with her as she deals with the irony of life's little setbacks.

Empire of the Superheroes
Author: Mark Cotta Vaz
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 1477316477
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 489
Book Description
Superman may be faster than a speeding bullet, but even he can't outrun copyright law. Since the dawn of the pulp hero in the 1930s, publishers and authors have fought over the privilege of making money off of comics, and the authors and artists usually have lost. Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, the creators of Superman, got all of $130 for the rights to the hero. In Empire of the Superheroes, Mark Cotta Vaz argues that licensing and litigation do as much as any ink-stained creator to shape the mythology of comic characters. Vaz reveals just how precarious life was for the legends of the industry. Siegel and Shuster—and their heirs—spent seventy years battling lawyers to regain rights to Superman. Jack Kirby and Joe Simon were cheated out of their interest in Captain America, and Kirby's children brought a case against Marvel to the doorstep of the Supreme Court. To make matters worse, the infant comics medium was nearly strangled in its crib by censorship and moral condemnation. For the writers and illustrators now celebrated as visionaries, the "golden age" of comics felt more like hard times. The fantastical characters that now earn Hollywood billions have all-too-human roots. Empire of the Superheroes digs them up, detailing the creative martyrdom at the heart of a pop-culture powerhouse.
