Steven Spielberg : Master Storyteller

Children's Literature - Judy Silverman

In this book Tom Powers tells the almost magical story of the "weird skinny kid" who knew from the age of 13 that he wanted to direct movies. Talent, determination, and luck all played their parts in his life. Now that he is a mogul with his own studio, he says that he hopes the industry "will forgive" him when he's fifty five. For what, he doesn't say, but maybe just for being young, and the best at what he does. He received the Chaim Weitzmann Philanthropic Leader Award for Schindler's List and his work with Holocaust survivors. This book is for anyone interested in the story behind this dynamic director.
