Art Gelien was just a kid when an agent asked him if he wanted to be in movies. Blessed with extraordinary good looks and enough smarts to know that he had a lot to learn, that kid said yes. Rechristened Tab Hunter, he was launched on a journey that carried him to stardom. First he became a pin-up favourite of teenage girls worldwide and then a number one box-office star; then he recorded a song called "Young Love" that knocked Elvis Presley off the top of the charts--and all the time he had to keep secret the fact that he was gay. In "Tab Hunter Confidential", written with Eddie Muller, Hunter looks back on a life lived without apologies and a career that soared, then crashed, and then later--thanks to popular cult-film autueur John Waters--enjoyed a revival. It is a true Hollywood story, told with humor and insight.
