Charles Addams: A Cartoonist''s Life: A Cartoonist''s Life

English

By (author): Linda H. Davis

The Addams Family is creepy and kooky, but wait till you see what their creator had in his apartment.

In Charles Addams: A Cartoonists Life, meet the legendary cartoonist behind the altogether ooky Addams Family in this first biography, written with exclusive access to Charles Addamss private archives.

Take a front-row seat to the widespread rumors and storytelling genius behind one of Americas oddest and most iconic creators. Even as The Addams Family grew in fame, the life of Charles Addams remained shrouded in mystery. Did he really sleep in a coffin and drink martinis garnished with eyeballs? In reality, Addams himself was charismatic and spellbinding as the characters he created. Discover the real stories behind Addamss most famous, and most private drawings, including the cartoon that offended the Nazis. From his dazzling love for sports cars and beautiful womenJackie Kennedy and Joan Fontaine among themto the darkest relationship of his life, this witty book reveals Addamss life as never before.

With rare family photographs, previously published cartoons, and private drawings seen here for the first time, Linda H. Davis provides a fascinating journey into the life of a beloved American icon.
