As it is pointed out in "Jerry Orbach, Prince of the City" most people are not aware of the incredible diversity and range of Jerry Orbach's career. I was intrigued and humbled to learn of the scope of Jerry's career and the many people that he befriended and influenced along the way. John Anthony Gilvey's book beautifully unfolds before the reader and invites you to know more about Jerry: his life, his loves, passions and challenges and, of course, his magnificent career spanning the Broadway stage, feature films and television. This, truly, is an important story to be told for we get to know Jerry; a man who faced his struggles with deep faith and a heart of gold and I can't imagine anyone other than Mr. Gilvey doing it justice. I strongly suggest this book to everyone for it will inspire and lift the spirits of anyone who picks it up and I look forward to reading more works by Mr. Gilvey.
