The first biography of the celebrated Broadway and Hollywood choreographer and director, whose legendary shows included 'Fiddler on the Roof' and 'West Side Story' among many others, and whose friends and enemies included Barbra Streisand, Bette Davis, Natalie Wood and Montgomery Cliff. Yet Robbins was tortured by private demons: his sexuality, his religion, his scandalous betrayals during the McCarthy hearings, and a sadistic but genius drive for perfection. Culled from hundreds of interviews and with 16 pages of photos, this biography is a heartbreaking and triumphant work.
