Maureen O'Hara, the book-length biographical account of the legendary screen star loved by many as "the Queen of Technicolor" it is the first. Aubrey Malone traces the life of the screen legend from Dublin which is where she grew up, to Hollywood's heights. He draws information from Irish Film Institute production notes for films and also from old magazines and newspapers. Malone is also a bit more in-depth about the relationship between the actress and frequent co-star John Wayne and her relationship with director John Ford and he addresses the hotly debated question of whether the screen siren is a woman or an antifeminist figure. While she was an iconic figure of the golden age of cinema, O'Hara's preference for privacy and her tendency to make public declarations which contradicted her own personal beliefs make her an unpopular figure. The biography is the first to offer an inside look at the woman behind her larger than life persona. Through sifting through the myths surrounding her, the book offers an honest assessment of the legendary film star.
