Recensione:

Acclaim for Shawn Levy's King of Comedy: The Life and Art of Jerry Lewis:

"Superb....Levy's ambitious (and entirely successful) biography is a model of what a celebrity bio ought to be--smart, knowing, insightful, often funny, full of fascinating insiders' stories, always respectful but never worshipful."
--Los Angeles Times Book Review

"Among the finest, most show business-savvy screen biographies ever written."
--Boston Phoenix

"One of the great, clear-eyed showbiz biographies of our time--a book worthy of comparison to the genre masterpiece, John Lahr's Notes on a Cowardly Lion."
--Boxoffice
