Live Fast, Die Young: My Life with James Dean (Paperback)

In this text, friend and lover John Gilmore reveals the truth about the real James Dean. Through letters, diaries, taped conversations and private remembrances by those closest to him, Gilmore constructs a never-before seen portrait of the star. Gilmore and Dean hung out in Times Square in the early days, and again around the time of "East of Eden", racing motorbikes, chasing the same women, experimenting with gay sex.
