Twilight man : love and ruin in the shadows of Hollywood and the Clark empire
(Book)

Includes bibliographical references (pages [357]-383)

"In the booming 1920s, William Andrews Clark Jr. was one of the richest, most respected men in Los Angeles. The son of the mining tycoon known as 'The Copper King of Montana,' Clark launched the Los Angeles Philharmonic and helped create the Hollywood Bowl. He was also a man with secrets, including a lover named Harrison Post. The men's money--and their relationship--made them targets, for the district attorney, their employees and, in Post's own family. When Clark died suddenly, Post inherited a substantial fortune--and a wealth of trouble. From Prohibition-era Hollywood to Nazi prison camps to Mexico City nightclubs, Twilight Man tells the story of an illicit love and the battle over a family estate that would destroy one man's life. Harrison Post was forgotten for decades, but after a chance encounter with his portrait, Liz Brown, Clark's great-grandniece, set out to learn his Fate. Twilight Man is more than a biography. It is a reckoning with the dark legacy of an American dynasty and a forgotten man's quest for home."--back cover.
