Steven Bach was a theatrical and film producer before heading worldwide production at United Artists, where he was involved in such films as Raging Bull, Manhattan, The French Lieutenant’s Woman, La Cage aux Folles, and Heaven’s Gate, about which he wrote the brilliant best-seller Final Cut.
“Steven Bach has evoked a glittering picture of backstage Broadway, in the years that Broadway was the center of theatrical glamour.
It is a superb evocation of that lost (and never-to-return) era when Broadway, ruled by a handful of writers, stars and producers was, for good and ill, the prime source of energy and ideas, talent and glamour for all of American show business.
