Description

His women were 10s, his guns were .38s and his collection of jewel-encrusted walking sticks numbered in the hundreds. For nearly 50 years, Jay Bernstein was a Hollywood fixture - owning one of the most powerful PR firms in the district, making stars of Farrah Fawcett and Suzanne Somers and producing dozens of television films and series. The dandy dresser was never without custom-tailored clothes, a cane, a loaded gun and the most important accessory of all - a young, beautiful woman on his arm. Starmaker is Bernstein's behind-the-scenes look at his life.
