BOOK DESCRIPTION

"My Favorite Movie Star: A journey from fan to friend" is the sentimental, sometimes scandalous true tale of a lifelong fan's devotion to his film idol and how their relationship evolved into one of Hollywood's greatest platonic love stories.

Award-winning broadcast journalist and author Nelson Aspen fell in love with the ravishing big screen image of actress Carol Lynley when he was only 9 years old, entranced by the 1972 disaster blockbuster "The Poseidon Adventure." Aided by his father's dogged determination and ingenuity, they eventually orchestrated for teen Nelson to have a date with the glamorous star, launching an intimate 40+ year friendship that stretched from Manhattan to Tinseltown lasting until her death in 2019.

With humor and insight, Nelson recounts the intimate details of their long personal and professional connection, dropping scores of famous names from Film & TV history along the way.
