MAUREEN O'HARA

I'm pleased to announce that MAUREEN O'HARA, the 30th play in THE HOLLYWOOD LEGENDS collection, is now available in paperback and Kindle editions on Amazon (and, I assume, elsewhere).
Maureen O’Hara was “The Queen of Technicolor”.
With her bright red hair
and piercing green eyes, this Irish colleen’s career spanned over
seventy years, as she held her own against such leading men as Tyrone
Power, Errol Flynn, James Stewart, Charles Laughton, Henry Fonda and, of
course, John Wayne. Her films include such classics as THE HUNCHBACK OF
NOTRE DAME, HOW GREEN WAS MY VALLEY, RIO GRANDE, THE QUIET MAN, MIRACLE
ON 34TH STREET, and THE PARENT TRAP.
O’Hara starred in five films for
director John Ford, and their relationship was anything but peaceful.
Never one to shun a fight, she took on Confidential Magazine and, also,
powerful producer, Walt Disney.
MAUREEN O’HARA, my one-woman stage play, finds the widowed actress pondering whether she
should do a new film, her first in twenty years. Alone in her New York
apartment, she weighs her options, and remembers the high and low points
of her fabulous career.
