Barbra Paskin was the late Dudley Moore's official biographer, having known him well for many years. In this latest book, she provides an affectionate celebration of this extraordinary comic and musical talent. Although the book examines his extraordinary life and career from the ground-breaking stage revue Beyond the Fringe, followed by his long association with Peter Cook that produced such immortal television programs as Not Only . . . But Also, to Hollywood stardom with films like 10 and Arthur, it is more than a biography. Uniquely, Dear Dudley also publishes for the first time a selection of the many kind, comforting, and often extremely funny letters that the author obtained from more than 100 leading celebrities to mark Dudley's 64th birthday, from the Rolling Stones to Michael Caine, Billy Joel to Paul McCartney, Goldie Hawn to Woody Allen--all of whom have given permission for them to be reproduced in the book.
