As the country's revolution spreads, Dolores, the daughter of a wealthy banker, must flee her comfortable life in Durango or risk death. Her family settles in Mexico City, where, at sixteen, she marries the worldly Jaime del RÌo. But in a twist of fate, at a party she meets an influential American director who recognizes in her a natural performer. He invites her to Hollywood, and practically overnight, the famous Miss del RÌo is born. Dolores's star quickly rises, and her days become a whirlwind of moviemaking and glamorous events. Swept up in L.A.'s glitzy inner circle, she takes her place among film royalty such as Marlene Dietrich and Orson Welles. But as her career soars, her personal life becomes increasingly complicated, with family tragedy, divorce, and real heartache. And when she's labeled box office poison amid growing prejudice before WWII, Dolores must decide what price she's willing to pay to achieve her dreams and if her heart and future instead lie where it all began...in Mexico."-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Del Rio, Dolores, $d 1905-1983 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Motion picture actors and actresses $z United States $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mexican American women $v Fiction. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2010101614 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726537 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20231025014355.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=3282B3EC72FC11EE80D9CCAA24ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b LVYInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
