About the Author:

As a team of veteran travel writers, Darwin Porter and Danforth Prince have produced titles for Frommer’s including guides to Italy, France, the Caribbean, England, and Germany. A film critic, columnist, and broadcaster, Porter is also a Hollywood biographer and author of Brando Unzipped, documenting the private life of Marlon Brando, and Jacko: His Rise and Fall, a biography of the tumultuous life of Michael Jackson. Prince was formerly employed by the Paris bureau of the New York Times and is currently the president of Blood Moon Productions and other media-related firms. Porter and Prince’s latest non-travel-related venture, jointly co-authored and published in 2008 by Blood Moon, is Hollywood Babylon—It’s Back!, which one critic described as “the hottest compilation of inter-generational scandal in the history of Hollywood.”
