One of the first great actresses to embrace the Hollywood lifestyle. Elizabeth Taylor is known as much for her passion for diamonds, high living and men as she is for her glittering acting career. Revered for her beauty and precocious talent, Еlizabeth was placed firmly in the lime light from an early age. Films such as "National Velvet. Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" and "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" played the way for her to become the first actress to be paid $1 million for her infamous appearance with Richard Burton in "Cleopatra".
Elizabeth's off-screen life has been as eventful as her on screen one the press fascination with her many marriages creating the kind of celebrity obsession we see today. In later life her involvement with charity work, especially her own AIDS charity, has revealed another side of this award winning actress.
Featuring compelling images and a fascinating biography, "Elizabeth Taylor: A Life in Pictures" reveals the public career and private world of this iconic actress whose life has often mirrored the fiction of the films in which she has starred.
