No celebrity rivals Elizabeth Taylor’s glamour and guts or her level of fame. She was the last major star to come out of the old Hollywood studio system and she is a legend known for her beauty and her magnetic screen presence in a career that spanned most of the twentieth century and nearly sixty films. But her private life was even more compelling than her Oscar-winning on-screen performances. During her seventy-nine years of rapid-fire love and loss she was married eight times to seven different men.

An in-depth look at the Elizabeth you never knew
Reviewed: 12-27-22
Elizabeth Taylor’s life was a larger than life icon.
She made a huge impact on this world not only as a movie star but more importantly as an advocate. She brought the epidemic to the forefront when no one else would - and saved so many lives because of it.
She connected with people of all walks of life. Her gusto for life was infectious and maybe that’s what part of her magic lay. She was not only beautiful but intelligent and had a wicked sense of humor.
So lucky to have read about the amazing life she led!
