In the Heat of the Night, Fiddler on the Roof, Moonstruck, and Jesus Christ Superstar. In Norman Jewison: A Director’s Life, Ira Wells chronicles Jewison’s life and work from his Protestant Toronto roots to his work on variety shows at CBC and CBS to his years in Hollywood directing movies. A wide array of ephemera – including letters, telegrams, missives, and reviews – gives the reader a vast sense of Jewison’s decades-spanning career. Wells’s biography devotes itself to detailing Jewison’s relationships, both positive and negative, with collaborators such as Steve McQueen, Cher, Hal Ashby, Sidney Poitier, and Sylvester Stallone, among others. Filled with details of studio clashes, financing demands, and casting issues, the book offers a glimpse into what it was like to work in Hollywood in the last half of the 20th century.
