  Rita Hayworth's own words, linked to a collection of photographs, create this account of the life and movie career of Hollywood's love goddess of the 1940s - the star of Cover Girl and Gilda . This book traces Rita's life from her childhood in a theatrical family, through her early days as a professional dancer and B movie actress, to her breakthrough to international fame as the dancing partner of Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly and her subsequent adoption as the pin-up girl of the American forces during World War II.
