Overview
Freddy Otash was the man in the know and the man to know in ā50s L.A. He was a rogue cop, a sleazoid private eye, a shakedown artist, a pimpāand, most notably, the head strong-arm goon for Confidential magazine.
Ā
Confidential presaged the idiot internetāand delivered the dirt, the dish, the insidious ink, and the scurrilous skank. It mauled misanthropic movie stars, sex-soiled socialites, and putzo politicians. Mattress Jack Kennedy, James Dean, Montgomery Clift, Burt Lancaster, Liz Taylor, Rock HudsonāFrantic Freddy outed them all. He was the Tattle Tyrant who held Hollywood hostage, and now heās here to CONFESS.
Ā
āIām consumed with candor and wracked with recollection. Iām revitalized and resurgent. My meshugenah march down memory lane begins NOW.ā
Ā
In Freddyās viciously entertaining voice, Widespread Panic torches 1950s Hollywood to the ground. Itās a blazing revelation of coruscating corruption, pervasive paranoia, and of sin and redemption with nothing in between.
Ā
Here is James Ellroy in savage quintessence. Freddy Otash confessesāand you are here to read and succumb.
