Leaving corporate America, Hubert
Doyle ventured alone over to England to pursue a writing career and
landed in public relations with celebrities, movies and television. His
friendship with Fred Astaire provides the centerpiece for this trip back
to a world encountered over six eventful years beginning in 1969 in
London.
Astaire at 70 rarely danced, but he still had moves that could make you
catch your breath. Style. Grace. Elegance. And the Debonair One played
one mean hand of gin, even while distracting his opponent by regaling
him with tales of his halcyon days.
What would follow from his work with Astaire provides a colorful and
lively account into the world of such notables as Mick Jagger, Julie
Christie, Bing Crosby, Muhammad Ali, Dame Edith Evans, Burt Reynolds,
Telly Savalas, Sarah Churchill, Burt Bacharach and more.
