The Pink Panther, Moon River, and Peter Gunn… songs that defined a generation. Henry Mancini wrote some of the most hummed melodies of all time, winning him four Oscars and twenty Grammy Awards. Now for the first time, we are telling his fully authorized story in a graphic novel. From the humble beginnings of his father's flute lessons, to standing ovations at the prestigious Hollywood Bowl, this graphic novel by Fantoons beautifully illustrates every step in the journey of Henry Mancini's pivotal and industry-shaping career. Each page features vividly painted illustrations, with color that encapsulates each of the many emotions-high and low-of Henry Mancini's bold, musical adventure.
