JOI LANSING - A BODY TO DIE FOR - A Love Story

"Joi Lansing: A Body to Die For colorfully chronicles personal and intimate details of the last four years of the talented â€˜50â€™s â€œblonde bombshellâ€ starâ€™s fascinating life. After three decades of successful TV and movie appearances and Vegas singing stardom, Ms. Lansing died far too young at just 43. Though her funeral was attended by luminaries of the day (Frank Sinatra sent a huge floral display), her light went out relatively unceremoniously. Always just on the verge of â€œmaking it big,â€ Joi packed them in with standing room only in Vegas, but when the curtain came down and the audience was gone, who was she? Sadly, the one relationship where she was loved for the sweet, gentle woman she really was, the friendship that might have given her the strength to finally cross the finish line for that one moment of glory for which she had run since she began in show business as a little girl of 14, was ended at her death from breast Cancer in the arms of her dear friend, â€œRachel.â€ "Author Alexis Hunter (â€œfriend/baby sisterâ€) was the only person who really knew Joi and knew how she struggled with a suicide-obsessed self-image and deadly drug problem after being a child star at MGM where â€œuppersâ€ were a common way to keep the kids working 20 hour days. â€œStunning black and white photos of Lansing by Maurice Seymour, the eraâ€™s Superstar Photographer, make this book a collectors dream.â€ â€”Kate Porter-Avery
