389pp inc index and more than a dozen sepia-toned photos - This critically-acclaimed, comprehensive biography continues to be considered a primary resource on Wilde. Pearson (1887-1964). After two years in London's financial centre, The City, he went onto the stage. He saw active service in WWI before resuming his acting career until 1931. At that point he abandoned acting to write. Focusing on biographies of the great artistes, he wrote about Gilbert & Sullivan, William Shakespeare, Charles Dickens, and George Bernard Shaw.
