Now, the enigmatic and sexy Superstar of the ‘60s and ‘70s underground film movement talks--in detail--about his life, his career and his films.

Movie buffs, male and female alike, will find Michael Ferguson’s book, LITTLE JOE, SUPERSTAR: The Films of Joe Dallesandro, a revealing and comprehensive filmography, biography and video guide to the remarkable career of a male sex symbol.

Completely at ease as a naked screen star, Dallesandro has developed a legion of fans worldwide, including a substantial gay following that acknowledge his bisexual characters and erotic image as important expressions of male sexuality in cinema. With his Warhol/Morrissey films on the brink of an even wider rediscovery, an actor--not just a pin-up boy--emerges in a whole new light.

Author Michael Ferguson has written the first in-depth look at the life and career of this male sexual icon, with insight and commentary provided by Joe Dallesandro in interviews granted exclusively to the author, tracing Dallesandro’s troubled youth in New York City, his nomadic life on-the-run from the law as a teenager, his early photo sessions for physique magazines in Los Angeles, his association with Warhol and the Factory, his ensuing career as Underground Superstar, his seven year stint in Europe as an actor, and the personal tragedies that necessitated his return to the United States where he recommitted himself to an acting career in the shadow of forever being associated with Andy Warhol.
