Published at the end of 2013 is the new book "Elvis' Favorite Director: The Amazing 52-Year Career of Norman Taurog" by Michael Hoey. 

Hoey is a multi-award winning film editor, writer, director and producer who wrote the two Elvis Presley films, 'Stay Away, Joe' and 'Live a Little, Love a Little' as well as working on 'Tickle Me' and was also a contributing writer on three other Elvis films. 

Norman Taurog's career embraces the history of Hollywood, from silent comedies to the Elvis Presley era. During Taurog's fifty-two years in the film business he directed seventy-eight feature films starring everyone from Maurice Chevalier and Carole Lombard, to W.C. Fields and Bing Crosby, to Mickey Rooney and Spencer Tracy, Judy Garland, Mario Lanza, Cary Grant, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, and of course his nine films with Elvis Presley. 

Elvis' Favorite Director is an in-depth study of Hollywood movie-making, seen through the eyes of a talented craftsman and told by a writer who worked closely with Taurog during the last six years and eight films of his career.
