SUMMARY:Edward Sorel launches Mary Astor's Purple Diary
DESCRIPTION:In a hilarious send-up of sex\, scandal\, and the Golden Age of Hollywood\, legendary cartoonist Edward Sorel brings us a story (literally) ripped from the headlines of a bygone era. In 1965\, a young\, up-and-coming illustrator by the name of Edward Sorel was living in a $97-a-month railroad flat on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Resolved to fix up the place\, Sorel began pulling up the linoleum on his kitchen floor\, tearing away layer after layer until he discovered a hidden treasure: issues of the New York Daily News and Daily Mirror from 1936\, each ablaze with a scandalous child custody trial taking place in Hollywood and starring the actress Mary Astor. Mary Astor’s Purple Diary narrates and illustrates the travails of the Oscar-winning actress alongside Sorel’s own personal story of discovering an unlikely muse. Throughout\, we get his wry take on all the juicy details of this particular slice of Hollywood Babylon\, including Mary’s life as a child star—her career in silent films began at age fourteen—presided over by her tyrannical father\, Otto\, who “managed” her full-time and treated his daughter like an ATM machine.
