Though Nashville is the current CountryandWestern capital, Hollywood put hillbilly singers to work in the early years (1930s1950s) in movies, at recording studios, and on radio shows.Hillbilly Hollywood is a lavishly illustrated volume that examines the culture that produced costumes (like Nathan Turk, Nudie Cohen, and Manuel Cuevas) who created that famous C&W style well tailored, elaborately embroidered or beaded clothes.Historical text and interviews with C&W legends complement examples from Mary Stuart's extensive vintage collections as well as candid photographs (most never published before) of Elvis Presley, Gene Autry, Patsy Cline, and more. Dynamically designed, Hillbilly Hollywood is as much a collector's piece as the costumes it features.
