The Sexiest Man Alive is the first in-depth biography of Warren Beatty， a man who blazed a trail of sex and high artistic achievement across the twentieth century as Hollywood matinee idol， founder of the New Hollywood with his groundbreaking Bonnie and Clyde， and international Don Juan.Through interviews with friends and associates， Ellis Amburn reveals new details about Beatty s well-known conquests and tells of many others that have not heretofore been reported， from early affairs with Joan Collins and Natalie Wood to encounters with such unknowns as a Playboy bunny and a young black student to such recent romances with Madonna and Annette Bening， the woman he finally married.The notches on his belt read like a who s who of feminine beauty and power， making him the Casanova of the century. A partial list of his conquests include Jackie Kennedy Onassis， H.R.H. Princess Margaret， Barbara Harris， Lillian Hellman， Princess Elizabeth of Yugoslavia， Linda Eastman McCartney， Inger Stevens， Dewi Sukarno， Vanessa Redgrave， Jean Seberg， Susannah York， Brooke Hayward， Maria Callas， Julie Christie， Cher， Brigitte Bardot， Candice Bergen， Jessica Savitch， Connie Chung， Diane Sawyer， Joni Mitchell， Carly Simon， Barbara Streisand， Jane Fonda， Lana Wood， Leslie Caron， Diane Keaton， Michelle Phillips， Mamie Van Doren， Britt Ekland， Barbara Hershey， Goldie Hawn， Barbara Minty， Margaux Hemingway， Elle MacPherson， Dayle Haddon， Carol Alt， Sippi Levine， Isabelle Adjani， Kate Jackson， Justine Bateman， Robin Menken， Darryl Hannah， and Mary Tyler Moore.Along the way， Amburn tells the exciting story of the young filmmakers who revolutionized Hollywood in the sixties and seventies， the people Warren knew and worked with， played with， sometimes made love with， and fought with -- Diane Keaton， Faye Dunaway， Julie Christie， Roman Polanski， Jack Nicholson， Hal Ashby， Robert Altman， Arthur Penn， Al Pacino， and Robert Evans.Amburn also explores Beatty s fascinating forays into Democratic politics -- his embattled relationship with Hubert Humphrey， how he wooed Barbra Streisand to raise millions for George McGovern， and the misadventure with Gary Hart， whose partying at Warren s bachelor pad -- and subsequent Donna Rice scandal -- some blame for his withdrawal from the 1988 presidential race. The Sexiest Man Alive is one of the most sizzling， revealing books about Hollywood， weaving together the rich material of Warren Beatty s life and art.
