Just in time for the 50th anniversary of Steven Spielberg’sJaws, an intimate and richly-told portrait of the iconic actor and writer Robert Shaw, from his portrayal of the legendary shark hunter Captain Quint and beyond, written lovingly but honestly by his nephew.”Go for the ;Jaws, stay for the Shaws.” —Nat Segaloff, author ofThe Exorcist LegacyRobert Shaw unforgettably commanded attention as the weathered seaman Captain Quint in the blockbuster sensation,Jaws. But what came before and after that landmark film is as dramatic as the hunt for the great white shark itself.Capturing the many facets of the vibrant, generous, and sometimes polarizing man is his nephew, Christopher, who explores the forces that shaped a dynamic personality—including Robert’s indomitable mother, his deeply troubled father, and his activist sister, Joanna, with whom Robert shared an unbreakable bond. Out of the traumatic events of their childhood in the Orkney Islands and Cornwall, Mrs. Shaw pushed her children to pursue their dreams. For Robert, that dream was acting and writing.Despite a storied career on the British and American stage—as both performer and playwright—and a string of hit films includingFrom Russia with Love,A Man for All Seasons,The Sting, andThe Taking of Pelham One Two Three, international celebrity eluded Robert . . . until he was summoned to star in “a little horror film” calledJaws.What happened on-screen was unforgettable. What happened off-screen was chaos. Now Christopher Shaw Myers reveals the true story of the making of the classic.Jawswould become both an artistic success and a worldwide triumph for Robert Shaw. Tragically, for a man shadowed by his father’s demons, it would also signal the beginning of the end.Drawing on family recollections, personal letters, scrapbooks, recordings, extensive interviews, and a lifetime of his own memories, Christopher paints a unique, intimate, and honest portrait of a man he was proud to call his uncle.
