Ideal Beauty: The Life and Times of Greta Garbo

Ideal Beauty reveals the woman behind the Garbo mystique, a tough negotiator who used her newfound power in Hollywood to develop a distinctly new feminist screen persona. Examining how she was an icon who helped to define female beauty in the twentieth century, the book also considers Garbo's spiritual and sexual exploration away from the camera's glare.
