Publicist Tommy Garrett, who represented General Hospital's Anna Lee (ex-Lila)  and still represents Constance Towers (Helena) and many other TV and film stars, is coming out with a new book, "The Making of Hollywood Stars."  Get the gossip on your favorite stars!  Tommy Lightfoot Garrett, the author of "So, You Want To Be In Pictures: The Making Of Hollywood Idols, is pleased to announce the upcoming release of his second in a series of four tell-all books. Titled "The Making Of Hollywood Stars," this new tome from the press agent/television and radio show host ties the biggest performers of today to their counterparts of yesteryear. Included amongst the list of Tinseltown A-listers are daytime celebrities:  Las Vegas’ Josh Duhamel (ex-Leo, AMC), Susan Flannery (Stephanie, B&B), Ingo Rademacher (Jax, GH), and Cameron Mathison (Ryan, AMC). “Mathison is a star. He's handsome and talented. But I think people would be shocked to know that his almost Canadian blue blood breeding makes him one of the most genuine and interesting people I have ever worked with,” Garrett relates. “Dancing his heart out on ABC's Dancing with the Stars is a dream come true for him… he's come a long way from being a disabled child in a leg brace.” The Making Of Hollywood Stars, which retails for $16.95, is available from http://www.wastelandpress.com, http://www.amazon.com, and retail .  Read more at ABC Soaps in Depth and CBS Soaps in Depth.
