Publisher's Synopsis
Lili St. Cyr was, in the words of legendary reporter Mike Wallace, 'the highest paid stripteaser in America'. Wallace was so fascinated by Lili that out of all the presidents and celebrities he interviewed over a long career, she was the one he remained fixated on. Lili led an incredible life-six marriages, romances with Orson Wells, Yul Brenner, Vic Damone, arrests on indecency charges, a number of suicide attempts -all alongside great fame and money. A bigger star than Gypsy Rose Lee, Lili was named one of the world's ten most beautiful women alongside Ava Gardner and Brigitte Bardot. Yet she lost it all, becoming a recluse in her final decades. This is the definitive biography of this legendary figure.
