When MGM paired Nelson with Jeanette MacDonald in "Naughty Marietta", America's Sweethearts were born. The became a source of frenzied curiosity for years to come. Rumors of their feuds and love affairs abounded. Nelson was fiercely protective of his private life, even aloof at times, but always captivating, always charming and always, always...a gentleman. Little known anecdotes and stories of Nelson the concert singer, the radio personality, the motion picture idol, and the multitalented painter and sculptor bring him to life. Then when movies lost their guilded edge, he risked his career by bypassing the wave of the future, television. He and his partner, Gale Sherwood, became the hottest nightclub act of the fifties. From opera to the nitery crowd, Nelson did it all. It is all here...his triumphs and his private heartbreaks, his insecurities and dreams. His sister Ginny says, "It's Nelson to a tee".
