520    Worshiped by moviegoers and beloved by his colleagues, 
       Hudson appeared to have it all. He grew up poor in 
       Winnetka, Illinois; was abandoned by his biological father,
       abused by an alcoholic stepfather, and controlled by his 
       domineering mother. After signing with the powerful but 
       predatory agent Henry Willson, Hudson was transformed, 
       gaining a wholesome, straight arrow screen image was at 
       odds with his closeted homosexuality. In 1985 the public 
       learned that the actor was battling AIDS. Griffin draws on
       interviews with co-stars, family members and former 
       companions to create a complete and nuanced portrait of 
       one of the most fascinating stars in cinema history. --
