About the Book

Almost True Hollywood Stories is an offbeat, darkly funny fictional account of insider Bradley Lewis' experiences writing screenplays while living and socializing with the elite 'Hollywoodland' crowd. Doctors, agents, celebrated talent, writers, producers, business moguls, wannabes, medical students, the fabled Hillcrest Country Club and the Beverly Hills Tennis Club are all represented. Even deli owners and their families, as they intersect to form a meld of backstage show business and a macabre horror plot. This authentic view of the entertainment industry will appeal to any show business junkie, as well as anyone who enjoys a good laugh.
About the Author: Bradley Lewis is a writer whose focus has ranged from the bizarre world of celebrity doctors and medical research to detailed histories of Jewish-American development, with particular interest to the entertainment industry. He co-wrote the bestselling biography of Milton Berle, My Father, Uncle Miltie, with the fabled comedian's son, a candid look at the irreplaceable American television icon. His Hollywood's Celebrity Gangster, The Incredible Life and Times of Mickey Cohen is the only complete biography of the charismatic and dangerous mobster whose life was a paradigm for the intermingling of Washington, Las Vegas, the entertainment business and the mob. Lewis' novel Great White Doctor is a scalpel thriller centered on the sordid lives and weird sexual habits of "celebrity doctors", exposing the seamy side of high profile specialists who perform unnecessary surgery on their female patients. The Bloomingdale Code is a well-researched page-turner about secret religious tenets, ancient medical ritual, conspiracies, and modern-day international politics. Lewis' sequel to The Bloomingdale Code, God's Helix, is a powerful reality-based roller-coaster ride that won't let you off until the very end of the ride. Another Bad Day In Beverly Hills is an enormously engaging female sleuth novel told through the eyes of an insider. Cul De Sac is a thriller inside AIDS research. Lewis has written often about the Hollywood scene, and is no stranger to celebrities and celebrity doctors. Anonymous underworld "businessmen," sometimes sent their lady friends for treatment in his office. That experience with known mobsters contributed to his' interest in how gangsters, Hollywood, and Washington somehow connect in the American landscape. As an actor, Lewis appeared on TV in As the World Turns, Love of Life, The Guiding Light, and trained at the prestigious H. B. Studios in Manhattan, with its founder Herbert Berghof and fabled acting teacher William Hickey. He appeared in many off and off-off Broadway productions. Lewis has advanced degrees from CUNY (Psych) and New York University; a fellowship at Columbia University, College of Physicians/ Surgeons, and St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital. Retired from clinical practice, he has fought for the elimination of formaldehyde from pediatric medicaments. His research has been quoted in hundreds of professional journals. A popular talk show guest, he has appeared on numerous radio and television programs. Lewis is a native New Yorker.
