Howard Hughes

Peter Brown

Pat Broeske

Remembered primarily as an eccentric and deluded billionaire, Howard Hughes was once America's golden boy, a celebrated aviator and Hollywood legend who romanced hundreds of beautiful women. The scope of his life made him one of the most influential figures in America. Where previous biographies have concentrated on Hughes's business empire, Howard Hughes: The Untold Story unveils the full story of the tycoon, tracing his bold efforts to reshape Hollywood, his devastating health problems, his erratic behaviour during his last decades and his tangle of steamy relationships with stars such as Katharine Hepburn, Bette Davis, Ava Gardner and Ginger Rogers.

Drawing on hundreds of exclusive interviews and documents charting, among many other revelations, his troubled family relationships, drug addiction, secret harem of teenage mistresses and the part he played in the Watergate scandal, Howard Hughes: The Untold Story follows Hughes's transformation from lover and business innovator into reclusive captive of his own fears.

Peter Brown

Steven Gaines (Author) STEVEN GAINES is the New York Times bestselling author of Philistines at the Hedgerow: Passion and Property in the Hamptons and The Love You Make: An Insiders Story of the Beatles (with Peter Brown). His journalism has appeared in Vanity Fair, the New York Times, and New York magazine, where he was a contributing editor for 12 years. Mr. Gaines is the co-founder and a past vice-chairman of the Hamptons International Film Festival. He has lived in Wainscott, a small hamlet on the East End of Long Island, for 40 years. Peter Brown (Author) PETER BROWN is the former COO of Apple Corp, the Beatles' financial empire. He's been a Beatles intimate since their earliest days in Liverpool. Their passports were locked in his desk drawer. He was best man at John and Yoko's wedding, he introduced Paul to Linda Eastman, and perhaps the most charming of his credentials is that he's the only real person ever mentioned in a Beatles song, "Peter Brown called to say, you can make it okay, you can marry in Gibraltar near Spain," from the "Ballad of John and Yoko." Mr. Brown is now chairman of the international public relations firm of Brown Lloyd James LTD.
