Reviews
"Winkler's blend of dishy backstage detail, over-the-top adoration, and solid criticism befit his larger-than-life subject. Midler's fans will find plenty to sink their teeth into." -- Publishers Weekly"Bette Midler is one of our most brilliant and versatile divas - she can swerve from hilariously campy to heart tuggingly profound at the drop of a fake eyelash - and Winkler captures the full breadth of her talent, her creative roots, her choices, her stature as a reigning gay icon, and her largesse. This comprehensive guide deftly sneaks into Midler's crackling mind and defines the wind behind her diva wings." -- Michael Musto, columnist and author"Winkler's On Bette Midler is as brassy, bold, smart, and revelatory as its subject, the forever Divine Miss M. His deft and detailed delineations of Midler's protean career demonstrate why she has ruled for more than half a century. She emerges from this entertaining pop cultural history as a brave and uncompromising exporter of gay culture, a hilarious one-woman wrecking ball of celebrity pretension, and a unique song stylist who can crack you up and break your heart in a whip-lashing minute. Winkler's Midler is a glorious and sparkling package of sex, savvy, parody, and profundity. I couldn't put it down." -- Patrick Pacheco, Emmy-winning journalist and author of Chita, A Memoir, written with Chita Rivera"On Bette Midler is a gorgeously written, fiercely researched account of the Divine Miss M. Winkler critically taps into Midler's formidable talent and artistic restlessness charting, in meticulous detail, the multiple branched magnitude of Midler's contribution to entertainment. Winkler invites readers to zoom into their treasured gems of Midler's formidable canon, then proceeds to scrupulously unfold the many intricacies of the genesis of that moment and its ultimate flight - glorious or not - into the cultural sphere. With a critical eye towards her style, vocal gifts and challenges, Winkler, weaves Midler's famous one liners, sarcastic wit, and sometimes barbed humour into a rich exploration of an astounding and influential artist of our time." -- Phoebe Rumsey, author of Embodied Nostalgia: Early Twentieth Century Social Dance and the Choregraphing of Broadway Musical Theatre"A fascinating and personal portrait of a singular performer. Winkler succeeds at capturing Midler's distinctive and memorable personality, which is somehow equal parts bawdy showgirl and sensitive chanteuse." -- Library Journal, "Winkler's blend of dishy backstage detail, over-the-top adoration, and solid criticism befit his larger-than-life subject.

Synopsis
Bette Midler today is a beloved legacy star, best known for her comic witch in Disney's Hocus Pocus (1993) and its 2022 sequel. She has also gained prominence for sentimental, anthemic ballads like "Wind Beneath My Wings," her initiation of green space projects in New York City, and tussling with Donald Trump on Twitter. Her profile is that of an articulate, civic-minded matriarch enjoying thoroughly mainstream stardom. But more than fifty years earlier she emerged from the steam of the subterranean Continental Baths as the Divine Miss M, the bawdy, campy, fearless alter ego she created in front of an audience of towel-clad gay men who came to the baths seeking not just sex, but a sense of community and safety from an often-harrowing outside world. "I was able to take chances on that stage that I could not have taken anywhere else," she later wrote. "Ironically, I was freed from fear by people who, at the time, were ruled by fear. And for that I will always be grateful." Overnight, Bette Midler became a much-loved icon of the gay community. The Divine Miss M coalesced gay, Jewish, feminist, and show business sensibilities into an outrageously funny and emotionally compelling persona that travelled with surprising ease from the cultural margins to the entertainment mainstream. Her embrace by mom-and-pop audiences, rock fans and critics, and the guardians of middle-of-the-road show business demonstrates just how deeply the tastes and sensibilities of her original audience have been absorbed into popular culture. On Bette Midler: An Opinionated Guide traces the early development of Midler's performing ethos from New York's downtown experimental theater scene and examines her impact across media, with chapters on the soaring highs (and occasional cringe-worthy lows) of her stage work, movies, recordings, and television appearances, and considers her influence as an environmental activist and social media presence. On Bette Midler features performance analysis and deeply researched background information, all of it supporting informed--and divinely opinionated--consideration of Midler the artist. It judges her work by the highest standards: those she established for herself., Bette Midler today is a beloved legacy star, best known for her comic witch in Disney's Hocus Pocus (1993) and its 2022 sequel.

It judges her work by the highest standards: those she established for herself., For more than fifty years, Bette Midler has been at the center of the entertainment world as a uniquely talented singer, actress, and comedienne. Starting in the unlikely venue of a gay bathhouse in New York City--where she developed her Divine Miss M persona--this book takes a deep dive into her successes, from movies to million-selling records, from sell-out concert tours to her memorable farewell to Johnny Carson as his last guest on The Tonight Show.
