Today is a really exciting episode. We’ve mentioned today’s topic on previous podcasts, and now we get to actually celebrate, and that is the release of CAN’T WE BE FRIENDS: a novel of Ella Fitzgerald and Marilyn Monroe that I co-wrote with Denny S. Bryce. And on this episode we have Denny here to join in the celebration and to discuss the little known friendship between these two incredible women, Ella Fitzgeraland who was recognized as the premiere singer of her era with perfect pitch and tireless ambition. And Marilyn Monroe the most glamorous star in Hollywood, a sex symbol who took the world by storm.
