Book excerpt: It All Began with a Club As one of Walt Disney's original Mouseketeers, Eileen Rogosin (née Diamond) graced Americans' television sets with the likes of Bobby Burgess and Annette Funicello. When the Mouse ended, Eileen's career didn't end with it--it had just begun! This is her show-biz story. From her childhood in the Hollywood Hills to her later years as the co-owner with her husband, Roy, of repertory theatres and playhouses, Eileen Rogosin was no stranger to the spotlight. Even before The Mickey Mouse Club, she danced with the New York City Ballet in Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker, and her talent as a dancer and as a pianist were featured in episodes of the Disney show. Eileen went from Mouseketeer to one of Elvis Presley's harem girls in the King's 1964 film Roustabout, and she proudly traded her ears for a bikini in an episode of the popular television series Route 66. In her memoir, The Mouseketeer That Roared, Eileen takes you from the Hollywood Hills to the Disney Studio, from studio audiences to live audiences, from stage shows around the country to her own theatres in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, and Ogunquit, Maine. Packed with photos, it's a warm, endearing narrative of a life before, with, and after Mickey.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet Christina Aguilera through a thorough and honest portrayal of her life and career and the things that have influenced both. Christina Aguilera appeared on Star Search when she was eight years old and hasn't stopped performing since. Christina Aguilera: A Biography traces the life and career of this exceptional performer, looking also at the historical, political, and philosophical influences that have affected and motivated her. Readers will learn about the little girl who used music to drown the horrors of domestic abuse, about the young television star who wowed audiences with a voice that spanned four octaves, and, of course, about the wildly successful artist of today. Offering a complete and balanced portrayal, the book begins with Aguilera's childhood and ends with her current activities. It discusses early influences on her music, her father's role in fostering her interests, her evolution from squeaky-clean singer to sexy siren, and her maturation as a performer. In addition, readers will learn about her many awards and accomplishments, her generosity, and the importance of Latin culture to her work.

Book excerpt: As the turbulent 60's began to fade into the calmer 70's, a coterie of young singers, songwriters, musicians, artists, and poets began to congregate, musically on the stage of The New Bijou Theater - the Springfield, Missouri nightclub that would become the loose-knit group's home. What started as an informal weekly gathering, quickly morphed into a formal band. Dubbed the Family Tree, they became a favorite of the local counter-culture, as well as a continuation of the tradition-rich, Springfield music scene - which, until recently, included the Ozark Jubilee (the nation's first televised country music show). Though unprofitable at the time, they stuck to their guns and their original songs. When a rough tape of an early Bijou gig caught the ear of music mogul, John Hammond, it culminated in a 26-song studio demo, which caught the ear of A&M executive, David Anderle. The group signed with the label, changed their name to its present moniker, and whisked off to London to record their debut album under the tutelage of Glyn Johns. The album contained "If You Want to Get to Heaven". Their subsequent album, recorded in rural Missouri, contained "Jackie Blue". Both songs remain staples on 'classic rock' radio. By the early 80's, the Ozark Mountain Daredevils found themselves right where the Family Tree had stood a decade before - in Springfield with no record deal. They did, though, find themselves with legions of loyal fans around the world. Amidst personnel changes, personal turmoils and a cornucopia of tales from the rock-n-roll highway, the next twenty years were spent 'on the road'. Though continuing to write, they could garner little interest among the rapidly modernizing music industry - a situation many long-haired, long-named hippie bands of the 70's find themselves in. Their music, though, lives in the hearts of their fans.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of Sienfeldia, a behind-the-scenes history of the Mickey Mouse Club that is a treat for anyone who grew up with Walt Disney's television classic. Full of nostalgia, this book gives you the never before told story of how The Mickey Mouse Club paved the way for all that came after, from its humble beginnings as a marketing ploy, through its short but mesmerizing run, to the numerous resurrections that made it one of television's first true cult hits--all through the recollections of those regular kids-turned-stars who made it a phenomenon. It will reveal, for the first time ever, the stories of Annette, Darlene (and her famous rivalry with Annette), Cubby and Karen, Bobbie and the rest of the beloved cast. It will explore, through the reminiscences of former fans who grew up to be some of television's finest minds, what made the show so special. Finally, it will examine why the formula the creators of the show invented is more relevant than ever, and whether we'll ever see yet another Club for a new generation. Take a trip down memory lane with the original Mickey Mouse Club cast and creators, through drama and unexpected fame, to see how an television institution came into being.
