Book Presentation:
As the face of law enforcement in America for almost fifty years, J Edgar Hoover was feared and admired, reviled, and revered. But behind closed doors, he held secrets that would have destroyed his image, his career, and his life. This title tells his story.

About the Author:
Screenwriter Dustin Lance Black worked on the Emmy and Golden Globe Award-nominated television series Big Love as a writer and producer for three seasons. He also wrote screenplays for Pedro, profiling the late AIDS activist and reality television star Pedro Zamora.

Press Reviews:
"J. Edgar is a somber, enigmatic, darkly fascinating tale…. Starring an impressive Leonardo DiCaprio and crafted with Clint Eastwood’s usual impeccable professionalism, J. Edgar gets its power from the way the director’s traditional filmmaking style interacts with the revisionist thrust of Dustin Lance Black’s script." - Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
