This is a fascinating no-holds barred account of the tumultuous life and career of this Hollywood star. Loretta Young (1913-2000) was an Emmy and Academy Award-winning actress ("The Farmer's Daughter", 1948), a devout Catholic and the star of a tremendously popular television series. But that was not the whole story. "Hollywood Madonna" explores the full saga of Young's personal and professional life - from her film debut at age four, to her final television movie at age seventy-six. It also explores her affair with Clark Gable and the daughter that powerful love produced, placing it in the proper context of the time and the choices available to women in 1935, especially a noted Catholic like Young, whose career would have been in ruins if the public knew of her tryst. With the birth of a daughter, who would have been branded a love child, Loretta Young reached the crossroads of disclosure and deception, choosing the latter path. That choice resulted in an illustrious career for her and a tortured childhood for her daughter.
