This revealing biography tells, for the first time, the amazing story of a self-made man who for 50 years used his irresistible charm and prodigious legal talent to dominate the courtrooms, boardrooms, and bedrooms of Hollywood. Columnists of the 1930s through 1950s dubbed him "Hollywood Bachelor Number One," and for good reason. His long-term relationships and momentary conquests were a who's who of leading ladies. Through exclusive interviews with those who knew him best, the book uncovers the inner workings of not only Bautzer the high-powered Hollywood lawyer-whose clients included billionaire Howard Hughes-but Bautzer the man. 606 $aLawyers$zUnited States$vBiography 615 0$aLawyers 676 $a340.092 676 $aB 686 $aBIO005000$2bisacsh 700 $aGladstone$b B.
