Julia Roberts is the top female box-office star in the world. Her recent films include two romantic comedies: "Notting Hill" with Hugh Grant; and "Runaway Bride" which re-teams her with her "Pretty Woman" collaborators, Richard Gere and director Garry Marshall. In "Erin Brockovich" she flexes her dramatic muscles in a real-life story about a legal secretary who helps win a giant class-action lawsuit against a major industrial polluter. Based on a series of interviews with Roberts and with colleagues and friends, this book brings fans up to date on the actress while uncovering facts about her private life, including rumours of her drug addiction, her long-time estrangement from her brother, actor Eric Roberts, and blacklisting by director Steven Spielberg.
