Julia Roberts

Julia Roberts is Hollywood's highest paid actress. She is also a fascinating, complex woman who is already a Hollywood legend. Behind the glamour and high-profile films is a remarkable life that often generates more headlines than her movies. Entertainment journalist Colin MacLean uses personal interviews and in-depth research to find the enigmatic, intensely insecure but dedicated artist behind the famous megawatt smile. This book will take you past the lights and cameras in such films as Robert's Oscar-winning Erin Brockovich, Mona Lisa Smile and Pretty Woman. It traces the star's development from gawky Georgia teenager to radiant movie star, exploring in detail a fascinating but turbulent life often played out in tabloid headlines.
