Reviews
The second edition of Defying Gravity is a treasure-trove of information, stories, insights, and creative advice for anyone who wants to know more about Stephen Schwartz, or about the creative process of writing songs for the stage and screen. -- Ryan Luevano * Tin Pan L.A. *
A stunning 512 pages (with photographs and handwritten notes), de Giere's book is a thoroughly fascinating read as well as something of a musical theatre master class in written form-one that has been lovingly lensed through the life and creativity of Stephen Schwartz. -- Linda Hodges * BroadwayWorld.com *
This new version of what had been an already an impactful book offers deeper and wider insights into the creative mind of Stephen Schwartz ... As she did in the original edition, the author has captured not only the genius of the man, but his spirit, as well. -- Al Chase * The White Rhino Report blog *
