About the Book

Hazel Scott, a jazz pianist and singer, was the first African-American woman to host her own television show. She was also a trailblazer for African-American women in the entertainment world. Hazel Scott was a musician and a civil rights activist who frequently spoke out against racial segregation through her fame. She became a symbol of the battle against prejudice after she refused to perform at segregated venues. Scott's influence on American popular music and social movements will be felt for generations to come.

During a time of intense sexual constraint, Bettie Page's image captivated a generation with her free spirit and uninhibited sexuality. Page's stardom skyrocketed after she began posting images of herself in revealing clothing, such as lingerie, swimwear, and playful or sexual positions. She became a symbol of the emerging sexual revolution of the period, breaking conventional norms and expectations. Despite her seemingly carefree and confident sexuality, she had been on both ends of physical abuse. Bettie Page's family was dysfunctional, and she never had a happy, functional family of her own. Page had four marriages to three men and two committed relationships. All of these partnerships failed. Page's cheerful smiles and stances hid a lady who, from infancy to death, endured adversity, sometimes without support from others, despite the fact that her modeling career was relatively brief, her iconic photos continues to have an impact on the worlds of fashion, art, and pop culture for decades after her death.
