Playing the Field: Sex, Stardom, Love, and Life in Hollywood

Alibris: Books, Music, & Movies

mamie
This Special Collector's Edition of Mamie Van Doren’s autobiography, Playing the Field, is a no-holds-barred story by an iconic beauty and a true survivor of the so-called Golden Age of Hollywood. Mamie Van Doren, along with Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield, dominated the Hollywood landscape in the 1950s and 1960s as the three blonde bombshells of movies. Their love lives and careers became the stuff of legend.

In this utterly frank and candid memoir, Mamie reveals the infighting in the highly competitive world of the Hollywood studio system. She tells what it was like to balance the demands of being a sex symbol on the screen and a caring mother and wife at home.

Mamie writes movingly about her experiences entertaining troops in Vietnam. Her solo tour with only a musical conductor and small band reached some of the most remote and dangerous fire stations in Vietnam--from the MeKong Delta in the south, to the demilitarized zone in the north--places where small arms and artillery fire competed with her singing. 

Often irreverent, and by turns funny and sad--but always entertaining--this Special Collector’s Edition of Playing the Field, published under Mamie’s own imprint, contains all new pictures and a stunning new cover--endorsed by Hugh Hefner himself.

Playing the Field: Sex, Stardom, Love, and Life in Hollywood is available in paperback.

Cookín' Cajun

Cookin' Cajun was created because so many friends were asking for my seafood Cajun gumbo and chicken soup. Ronn suggested I  Create a cookbook to go with the spice and I thought it was great because now friends could make these dishes themselves and stop bugging me for them! There are over 50 dishes with colorful photos of each dish created. Some of my favorites include, Cajun Crabcakes, Cajun Gumbo, Beef Stew, Filet Migon w/Oyster Dressing, Chicken Soup and of course Seafood Gumbo. I made most of the recipes with "Devin's Kickass Cajun Seasoning" and part of the proceeds of the book will also go in the "Hurricane Katrina" fund to help rebuild New Orleans. I hope you enjoy the cookbook as much as I enjoyed cooking all these easy and healthy dishes. My Cajun Gumbo is one that you will want to make again and again. All the recipes are enhanced with Devin's Kickass Cajun Seasoning!

Cookin' Cajun is available in print .

 I've read Devin's Devasquez book "The Naked Truth About A Pinup Model" very happily twice..Even though I don't ever inspire to become a pinup up model at all..What I loved about this book is the fact that Devin..Gives you the truth about what it takes to make it in the modeling world. This is a great guide for women and girls of all ages around the world..You learn to be comfortable with your sexuality and basically inside of your own skin..Never settling for less than what you deserve, even if you've had a very abusive childhood..

(which I've had) You also learn some great ideas how to become stable financially and not rely solely upon your beauty..I'm a full figured beautiful woman with a nice body I am told, and I'm losing weight slowly to get down to the size that I feel comfortable with..

I must tell you that Devin's book made me feel so great about myself even at my current weight..More than I thought it would, because of the way the media and press has summed up what a pinup model is..Someone much more prettier than you with a better body, but after reading this book.. I no longer feel this way at all.. I even played dress up and took some great pictures of myself.. Something that I haven't done in years..So I urge every woman to buy and read this book..Give it as a gift to your girlfriends and sisters..By doing so will cause more women in the world to feel better about themselves..Something of which there's so very little of in today's society! - Leslie A. Lawrence
