Genuine Authentic: the Real Life of Ralph Lauren
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers
- Publish date: 02/01/2003
Description:
Everyone knows the name Ralph Lauren, many that he was born Ralphie Lifshitz. But not even Lauren himself knows the story of his family and the history that made him who he is. And few know how this pint-sized nebbish rose from the Jewish ghetto of the Bronx, turning himself from a yarmulke-wearing yeshiva boy into the world's leading purveyor of old-money-WASP style. Lauren embodies American aspiration, and stands as a symbol of the awesome rewards of self-invention -- and not just because he turned a talent for designing ties into a billion-dollar business that spans the globe.
Expand description
In revealing how Lauren achieved his dreams, Michael Gross lays bare the truths of this fashion emperor's rise, and reveals not only the secrets of his stunning success in marketing our shared fantasies -- but also the whiff of scandal, both in his business and his private life.
