Resumen del Editor
After eight years on the air, Desi Arnaz did not love Lucy any more. On screen, they were dynamite, a comedy pairing more successful than any Hollywood had ever produced. But when the cameras stopped rolling, they fought, screamed and threatened each other more each season. Finally, an argument in Desi's production office turned violent. Lucy hurled a cocktail glass past his head, and Desi demanded a divorce. He moved out that night. After nearly 20 years, America's favorite couple was finished.
When they first got married, no one in Hollywood thought it would last six months. Lucille Ball's acting career was on the skids, and Arnaz was just another Cuban bandleader. But together, their irresistible chemistry produced one of the greatest television empires of all time, and a love story as passionate as it was explosive.

Mary Tyler Moore made her name as Dick Van Dyke's wife on the eponymous show; she was a cute, unassuming housewife that audiences loved. But when screenwriters James Brooks and Allan Burnes dreamed up an edgy show about a divorced woman with a career, network executives replied: "Americans won't watch television about New York City, divorcées, men with mustaches, or Jews." But Moore and her team were committed, and when the show finally aired, in spite of tepid reviews, fans loved it.

NBC executives didn't think anyone would watch either, but they bought it anyway, hiding it away in the TV dead zone of summer. But against all odds, viewers began to watch, first a few and then many, until nine years later nearly 40 million Americans were tuning in weekly.

Love, Lucy is the valentine Lucille Ball left for her fans—a warm, wise, and witty memoir written by Lucy herself. The legendary star of the classic sitcom I Love Lucy was at the pinnacle of her success when she sat down to record the story of her life. No comedienne had made America laugh so hard, no television actress had made the leap from radio and B movies to become one of the world’s best-loved performers. This is her story—in her own words.

Born in 1903, and until his death in 2003, Bob Hope was the only entertainer to achieve top-rated success in every major mass-entertainment medium, from vaudeville to television and everything in between. He virtually invented modern stand-up comedy. His tours to entertain US troops and patriotic radio broadcasts, along with his all-American, brash-but-cowardly movie character, helped to ease the nation's jitters during the stressful days of World War II.

Henry Winkler, launched into prominence as “The Fonz” in the beloved Happy Days, has transcended the role that made him who he is. Brilliant, funny, and widely regarded as the nicest man in Hollywood (though he would be the first to tell you that it’s simply not the case, he’s really just grateful to be here), Henry shares in this achingly vulnerable memoir the disheartening truth of his childhood, the difficulties of a life with severe dyslexia, the pressures of a role that takes on a life of its own, and the path forward once your wildest dream seems behind you.

Fantastic!!
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and hated for it to end. The narrator was wonderful, with his “on the mark” inflection and soothing voice.
I’ve read other books on Lucy & Desi, but this one is, beyond a doubt, the best.
I highly recommend!!

"Lucy & Desi" - well narrated and informative
I've been a fan of Lucy and Desi since I was a little kid and watched reruns at home, one of the few programs my parents and my siblings and I could watch together and enjoy. Over the years I had heard of their troubles and knew of her success in TV, I had not known much about what happened with Desi. This book enlightens us all on his highs and lows, and both of their incredible life stories. A remarkable business partnership, and despite his cheating it seemed to me that both of them loved each other in their own way throughout their lives. His ability to see where the entertainment industry was headed and their willingness to try new technology and unwillingness to sacrifice quality of performance or production led to new production and filming methods that were industry-changing. Yet the book also delves into their personal stories and paints the complicated picture of their individual and married lives as well as shedding light on their family dynamics. Well worth it.

They will live forever
This was a fantastic book. I grew up watching everything Lucille Ball did and to find out more about her life was so interesting. I think that even if you didn't watch her shows it is still a book well worth listening to.

Well written and presented book!
This book is a must read for fans of Lucille Ball and Desk Arnaz. I grew up watching "I Love Lucy" and the other "Lucy" shows. But I never had a true insight into their lives until this book. I highly recommend it to friends to read this book. You will be greatly enlightened and learn a lot about this famous couple.

We still love Lucy and Desi!
This was my second bio of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnez. Much of the information was a repeat for me, but I never tire of listening or reading about this dynamic couple. What I really liked about this book is that in spite of them not being able to stay married and though they married other people, you could sense that they both loved each other until the end. Despite Desi's behavior, I believed he really loved Lucy but just couldn't help himself. So sad. But we still have films of them making us laugh and that's a good thing.
