Sal Mineo: A Biography
One of the hottest stars of the 1950s, Sal Mineo’s life was tragically cut short when he was murdered at the age of 37. Author Michael Gregg Michaud captures the actor’s passionate, freewheeling lifestyle, and his narrative is dotted with those who worked with him: Dennis Hopper, Janet Leigh, Eva Marie Saint, and James Whitmore. Especially revealing are the intimate insights of Mineo’s fiancée, Jill Haworth, and his male lover Courtney Burr.
