His public facade is part of our collective memory but the man behind it, and how his passion and determination changed Australian culture forever is revealed in 'Hector'. Rozzi Bazzani recounts vividly how, as Crawford's influence grew, the off-screen politics employed by the TV networks and rivals to diminish his company's power became as exciting as any of his on-screen dramas." -- BOOK BACK COVER BLURBNotes: Incudes bibliographical references (pages 303-315) and indexISBN: 9781925003734Contents: -- part one -- the high seas -- the first family -- choir of angels -- sweet inspiration -- young lives -- searching Hart's heart -- 'music for the people' -- music changes everything -- war torn -- words and music -- no place like home -- classical gas -- heartache and hope -- the first big talent show -- testing times -- love and marriage -- sneak preview -- nuts and bolts -- the spoken word -- the boys in blue -- an identity crisis -- the big picture -- the lobbyist -- game rules -- part two -- television reality -- down to business -- quiz bang -- dirty dancing -- television tease -- all out -- was I dreaming? -- it's an emergency -- all in the family -- overshadowed -- pushing the limit -- fizzled -- the little yellow booklet -- political art -- olderfleet building -- consider it done -- new horizons -- loss and gain -- the bid -- the decision -- back to the drawing board -- homicide -- family business -- a new podium -- pioneering pictures -- forward push -- a sister's heartbreak -- striking a balance -- hunting all over -- 'divvy four' -- fighting words -- head on -- variety is the spice -- new faces -- the art of tennis -- up, up and away -- the bush on television -- drawing power -- actors act : tv: make it Australian -- a sparkling piano man to the rescue -- acting out -- hollywood on the Yarra -- a new way -- a seniors film moment -- hands across the ocean -- hoist on his petard -- sex, lies and videotape -- the flood gates open -- boys' toys -- the box -- local features feature -- the empire strikes back -- last of the Australians -- where to from here? -- everybody wants to get in on the act -- slip sliding away -- a friend in deed -- the axe falls hard -- blockade -- the comeback -- a family in war: the Sullivans -- interlude -- leaving home -- part three -- together at last -- repeat with movement -- no new tricks -- all the rivers run -- carson's law -- the flying doctors -- da capo -- palace coup -- the last act of a mogul --
