Synopsis
Although Cooper portrayed the archetypal American man in such classic films as "Meet John Doe" and "Mr. Deeds Goes to Town", and heroic, larger-than-life figures in "High Noon" and "Pride of the Yankees", the actor's personal life was far from ideal. Remembrances by the actor's daughter, close friends, and fellow actors provide insight into Cooper's darker side: his troubled relationships and his cooperation with the House Un-American Activities Committee, which blacklisted numerous Hollywood screenwriters and actors for their supposed Communist ties.

Industry Reviews
"Though Meyers offers some colorful accounts of film industry personalities, his overall tone is inconsistent and his chronology is occasionally muddled....[T]he man himself [is left] unexamined, less an actor than one acted upon."
New York Times Book Review - Michele Orecklin (06/28/1998)
