“The writing is assured, graceful, and magnetic; the life the dancer-actress-author describes makes most fiction trivial by comparison. This is no ordinary collection of gossipy memoirs. It is a tour de force, as history and as a searching study of human nature.”—Publishers Weekly
“Because the book sustains a high level of insight and giddy entertainment value, Lulu in Hollywood is one of the most painlessly useful books in years. It is also an exhilarating display of the sort of diamond-hard prose whose beauty is inseparable from its precision.”—Film Comment
