Annotation

Michael Seth Starr investigates the hidden side of Ironside, in this revelatory exploration of the life of iconic actor Raymond Burr. Starr reports that Burr was so determined to hide his homosexuality amidst the conservative fervor which dominated Hollywood in the 1950s and early 1960s that he concocted stories of not one, but two dead wives, and even claimed to have had a son who died from leukemia. Starr also documents Burr's impressive rise from the local theater to the back lots of RKO to television immortality as Perry Mason.

Raymond Burr (1917-1993) was an enigma. A film noir regularly known for his villainous roles in movies like "Rear Window". But Burr was leading a secret gay life at a time in Hollywood when such a lifestyle was akin to career suicide. This book tells the story of his career, including his secret gay life.
