Mike Nichols by Mark Harris
A Life
A sweeping, meticulously researched portrait that follows his arc from a Jewish childhood in prewar Berlin and an early, electrifying comedy partnership through a bold reinvention as a theatre and film director. It explores the creative collaborations and landmark works that made him a defining figure of postwar American entertainment—stage hits, groundbreaking films, and his restless, sometimes mercurial personality—while probing his private life, marriages, and the compromises of fame. Interweaving interviews, archival material, and critical analysis, the book positions him as both an artist of uncommon taste and a mirror of changing American culture across decades.
