Bruce Lee

This oral biography of the legendary martial artist and action film star offers “an impressive collection of insights into the life of a cultural icon” (The Guardian, UK).

Bruce Lee only made a handful of films, yet generations after his untimely death at the age of thirty-two, the Little Dragon’s influence on culture is as strong as ever. Lee wasn’t just an actor and martial artist, but a director, inventor, husband, father and philosopher. His films kick-started a global kung fu boom and retain the power to awe today, while his thoughts – collected in a series of books from Lee’s own notes—still inspire.

Through exclusive interviews with Lee’s original students, close friends, co-stars, and many others, Fiaz Rafiq compiles a compelling, revealing, and multifaceted portrait of this complex man. Bruce Lee: The Life of a Legend “punches and kicks into new territory” (Hollywood Reporter).
