Early Praise
There's much I didn't know about Sean Connery, but this book clarifies it all in a very compelling way. It's a real page-turner, and I had difficulty putting it down. Herbie J Pilato displays an elegant writing style that is rarely seen today.
- Bill Daly, Senior Vice President, Warner Bros. Pictures/Sean Connery Co-Star (The Molly Maguires)
A comprehensive, and thoroughly researched analysis of one of the greatest icons of popular culture . . . full of fresh insights into Connery's journey, and the colossal impact he had on our lives. Pilato's grasp of the screen persona we all came to embrace . . . and beyond . . . is fluid, and captivating.
- David Naylor, Telly/Saturn-Award-winning Producer/Director/Documentarian
CONNERY, SEAN CONNERY is a delicious, yet ethical read.
- Michael Learned, Emmy Award-winning Actor (The Waltons)
CONNERY, SEAN CONNERY is a fascinating and thorough account of the legendary actor's life and career, from his humble, almost Dickensian childhood, to the peaks of international stardom. With gusto, expertise, and clarity, Herbie J Pilato has crafted a riveting portrait.
- John Schuck, Acclaimed Screen/Stage Actor/Director (McMillan & Wife/Annie)
