Book excerpt: The Unauthorized Biography of Leonardo DiCaprio "I prefer ordinary girls - you know, college students, waitresses, that sort of thing." -Leonardo DiCaprio Over the past two decades, Leonardo DiCaprio has shaken off his early image as a teen heartthrob to become both a critical favorite and one of Hollywood's most bankable stars. Few actors can compete with his consistent success and dazzling body of work, ranging from mega-blockbusters like Titanic and Inception to comedies like Catch Me If You Can and The Wolf of Wall Street or intense dramas like The Departed and The Revenant. In this convenient, fast-paced book, author James Diamond traces DiCaprio's meteoric rise from his unusual childhood, to his big break with What's Eating Gilbert Grape, to his crowning achievement to date: the Academy Award for Best Actor. We see step-by-step how DiCaprio honed his craft, from soap operas to sitcoms and finally to the big screen. At every stage, Diamond brings the magic of DiCaprio's performances to life.
