Tom Cruise An Unauthorized Biography ( PDFDrive )
particular like to thank Patricia Greenway, Nancy Many, and Tracy Nesdoly for their insights and commitment, as well as Daisy Garnett, Fiona Gray, Ali and Lydia Morton, Delissa Needham, Tom Rayner, Jack Shenker, and Bronwen T. Inevitably, given the passion for litigation exhibited by Tom Cruise and Scientology, many witnesses have chosen to give guidance and insight on a background basis. Their contributions have been no less valuable or appreciated. I have, however, been surprised by how many people have been prepared to speak openly about the movie star and his faith. In the hothouse Hollywood jungle, where most like to stay in the shade, I would like to thank Peter Alexander, Paul Barresi, Janet Charlton, John Connolly, Richard DiSabatino, Mark Ebner, Marlise Kast, Sharlene Martin, Kim Masters, and Skip Press. With its technical jargon, checkered history, and apocalyptic vision, learning about Tom’s faith is a not inconsiderable task, and many are still too scarred from their own experiences to talk openly. My thanks to those guides who “walked” me across the bridge to understanding: Chuck Beatty, Graham Berry, Maureen Bolstad, Nan Herst Bowers, Shelly Britt, Ursula Caberta, Tory Christman, Paulette Cooper, Vince Daniels, J. C. Hallman, Bruce Hines, Professor Stephen Kent of the University of Alberta, Canada, Christian Markert, Frank Oliver, Michael Pattinson, Karen Pressley, Jesse Prince, Phil Spickler, John Sweeney, Dave Sweetland, Michael Tilse, Professor Dave Touretzky of Carnegie Mellon University, Jeannine Udall, and Guy White. While Tom and his agents have actively discouraged those who wished to examine the claims he has made about his childhood and schooldays, the fact that so many of his former teachers, school friends, and others were happy to reminisce, usually with much affection, about the boy they called Maypo, helped build an authentic portrait. I am most grateful to Asta Arnot, Lionel Aucoin, Bryon Boucher, Kathy Burns, Cathy Carella, Angelo Corbo, Diane Cox, Lorraine Gauli-Rufo, Sean Gauli, Amy, Babydol, and Tobe Gibson, Glen Gobel, Sam LaForte, Alan, Irene, Jennifer, Murray, and Scott Lawrie, Jonathan Lebendiger, Dr. Kevin McGrath, Carol McLaurin, Nancy Maxwell, Cathy Mindel, Nancy Price, Marilyn Richardson, Wendy Santo, Pamela Senif, Krystyna Smith, Pennyann Styles, Phil, Ron, and Vinnie Travisano, Sharon Waters, and Val Wright. I would also like to thank Dave “Bio” Baranek, Dominic Carman, Janet Carroll, Eileen Collins, Richard Corliss, Richard Crouse, Garth Drabinsky, General Jefferson D. Howell, Dayna Steele Justiz, Michael O’Keefe, and Frederic Raphael. Their insights and memories added valuable perspective to the narrative. I am grateful for the indefatigable and inspirational support of my publisher, Sally Richardson; editor, Hope Dellon; and publicist, John Murphy.
