Summary

Blond Venus, first published in 1956, is a look at the life and work of German-American screen legend Marlene Dietrich (1901-1992). From Dietrich's childhood in Berlin to her success in Europe and Hollywood, Blond Venus portrays largely the public life and career of Dietrich; her private life was carefully guarded, and although described in the book, would require later biographies to paint a fuller picture (including the biography prepared by her daughter, Maria Riva). Included are 23 pages of photographs and a screen discography through 1952
