Summary

Raised Eyebrows is the bittersweet story of the last years in the life of Groucho Marx, told by a young Marx Brothers fan who was fortunate enough to work for Groucho as his personal secretary and archivist, right inside Marx's Beverly Hills home. In addition to getting to know his hero, the author was able to spend quality time with Zeppo, Gummo, Mae West, George Burns, Bob Hope, Jack Lemmon, SJ Perelman, Steve Allen, and scores of other luminaries of stage, screen, TV, and literature.

The downside of this dream-come-true was getting close to his idol as the curtain was coming down, and dealing with Erin Fleming - the mercurial woman in charge of Groucho's personal and professional life.

Raised Eyebrows is filled with never-before-heard anecdotes.

Groucho was in his twilight days, and was controlled by a crazy woman. Steve who wrote this was there and watching all this happen. It was beyond his control to stop it, but I think he treated Groucho with respect. A good read.

Very interesting, very sad.

A fascinating story regardless of how much you know about or care for the comedy of Groucho. Beautifully written in intimate honesty without being at all exploitative. A book about old age, mental health, faded glory and the joyful gift of being a true fan. I would give 10 stars if I could!

Intimate, respectful & honest
