XXL Hollywood Stories<br />

Inside the Minds of 22 Celebrities,<br />

With One A–List Writer<br />

Scott Raab<br />

For 15 years, author Scott Raab has accessed Hollywood—for<br />

Esquire and GQ magazines—as few<br />

American writers have done before: honestly, journalistically<br />

and sometimes shockingly.<br />

From stars’ movie sets to bizarre locations, Raab has<br />

pursued the art of the elusive, unlikely intimate profile,<br />

from bouncing along Malibu waves as Sean Penn’s first<br />

mate in Penn’s boat, to hanging backstage with Will<br />

Ferrell, dressed as a Speedo-clad leprechaun. No matter<br />

the setting, Raab draws evocative word pictures of<br />

how the world’s most famous folk eat, think, hide and<br />

(sometimes) confess.<br />

In these Hollywood—and New York—stories, actors,<br />

musicians and star athletes are expertly pulled<br />

down from their pedestals, for all of us to inspect. Up<br />

close, and much more personally.<br />

Esquire writer-at-large and recent Court TV contributor<br />

Scott Raab has written celebrity and other stories<br />

for national magazines since earning an M.F.A. at the<br />

Iowa Writers Workshop. His work has also appeared in<br />

GQ, Self and Sport magazines, as well as The New York<br />

Times.<br />
