Michael Sheridan

Når man går rundt på Louisiana i dag, synes placeringen af bygninger og landskab at være fast og uforanderlig, som om det altid har været sådan. Men under de tilsyneladende selvfølgelige omgivelser ligger en lang historie om skabelse og nyskabelse, der går tilbage til Napoleonskrigene. Museet udgiver nu en omfattende og banebrydende bog, Louisiana – arkitektur og landskab, hvor den amerikanske arkitekt, forfatter og ekspert i moderne nordisk arkitektur Michael Sheridan fortæller historien om museets lange tilblivelse. Det er historien om et museum, der er vokset organisk i takt med udviklingen i tidens kunst og publikums ændrede forventninger. I dag vil alle ligne museet i Humlebæk – men hvordan blev Louisiana til Louisiana?

A New York Times Bestseller Frank Sinatra desperately wanted to be part of John F. Kennedy’s gang. He had his own famed ? Rat Pack,” made up of hard drinking, womanizing individuals like himself?guys like Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, Jr., and Peter Lawford?but the guy ? Ol’ Blue Eyes” really wanted to hang with was Lawford’s brother-in-law, the real chairman of the board, John F. Kennedy. In Sinatra and the Jack Pack, Michael Sheridan delves deep into the acclaimed singer’s relationship with the former president. He shares how Sinatra emerged from a working class Italian family and carved out a unique place for himself in American culture, and how Kennedy, also of immigrant stock, came from a privileged background of which the young Frank could only have dreamed. By the time the men met in the 1950s, both were thriving?and both liked the good life. They bonded over their mutual ability to attract beautiful women, male admirers, and adoring acolytes. They also shared a scandalous secret: each had dubious relationships with the mafia. It had promoted Frank’s career and helped Kennedy buy votes. FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover had, over two decades, compiled detailed and damning dossiers on their activities. From all accounts the friendship thrived. Then, suddenly, in March 1962, Frank was abruptly ejected from JFK’s gang. This unique volume tells why. It will release shortly after a television documentary inspired by the book airs, is filled with a beloved cast of characters, and is the compelling, untold story of a tumultuous relationship between two American icons.

Richard Harris was a giant who oozed charisma on screen. But off screen he was troubled and addicted to every pleasure life could offer. Coming from a repressed Irish Catholic background, he was forced by a teenage illness to abandon his beloved rugby, but not his macho appetites. Discovering theatre saved him. He had found his calling. Despite marrying the daughter of a peer, he never tried to fit in. He was always a hell-raiser to the core, along with legendary buddies Richard Burton and Peter O’Toole. But he was more; he was a gifted poet and singer. He was an intelligent family man who took great interest in his craft, a Renaissance man of the film world. Every time his excesses threatened to kill his career – and himself – he rose magnificently from the ashes, first with an Oscar-winning performance as Bull McCabe in The Field, then in the Harry Potter franchise.
