Synopsis

Ted Turner, America’s maverick multi-billionaire, is best known as the creator of CNN who revolutionized the news industry, married Jane Fonda, and then became the largest shareholder in media powerhouse Time-Warner. What makes him tick? And, perhaps more important, what drives the uncanny business sense that has made him so spectacularly successful? Porter Bibb’s critically-acclaimed biography delves deep to analyze Ted Turner’s amazing transformation from the upstart known as "The Mouth of the South" to the man Bibb calls "the first honest billionaire in history."
