Press Release Summary: Internationally Acclaimed Conductor/Composer Phillip Lambro
reveals intimate portraits of Hollywood’s movie-making elite, including Steven
Speilberg and Alfred Hitchcock

Press Release Body: Los Angeles, CA, September 9, 2008 --- Phillip Lambro has earned
a stellar reputation in the worlds of both symphonic music and film scoring after
more than 50 years as a composer and passionate advocate for innovation in
contemporary music.

In the ‘60s Lambro hung out in New York’s hedonistic society with Salvador Dali,
Sylvia Plath and his teacher Maestro Leopold Stokowski as his career straddled the
boundary between Hollywood film music and pieces for the concert hall.

Lambro’s first brush with Hollywood was with Frank Sinatra in 1964 while he was
Music Director for the United Nations, but his next encounter was with film director
Roman Polanski who pursued and engaged Lambro to write the score for Chinatown and
producer Robert Evans who pulled the score at the last minute. Lambro felt he never
fit in with the Hollywood establishment and he suffered for it.

This is a story about overcoming the social pitfalls of Hollywood, learning to
triumph in the face of failure and remaining true to yourself.

Some of the celebrities featured in the book are Steven Spielberg, Roman Polanski,
Jack Nicholson, Robert Evans, John Cassavetes, Peter Bogdanovich, Salvador Dali,
Frank Sinatra, Jack Benny, Huntington Hartford, Howard Hughes, John F. Kennedy,
Sylvia Plath, Harold Lloyd, Richard Nixon, Alfred Hitchcock, , Antonio Carlos Jobim,
Maestro Leopold Stokowski, Santiago Rodriguez (the Van Cliburn 1981 Medalist),
Philippe Entremont, Gaetano Delogu, John F. Kennedy, Errol Flynn, Omar Sharif, John
Derek, , Jules Stein, Lew Wasserman, James Mason and more.
