Item Description

"Stormy Weather - The life of Lena Horne", signed by author James Gavin, is a definitive biography on Lena Horne, legendary beauty and African American icon who broke barriers of race and gender in show business.  James Gavin has written about some of the most significant black musical figures of our time, including Nina Simone, Harry Belafonte and Miriam Makeba.  This fine work is recommended not only for those who like nonfiction, but anyone interested in the Harlem Renaissance, early jazz, MGM musicals and the burgeoning Civil Rights Movement.
