...Harvey attracts much attention to himself with these fangy off-screen caterwauls, but he is not one of those stars who are all column-item and no credits.

Joan Cohn calls him "the boy prince." As a symbol of devotion, she once gave him a lavender Rolls-Royce with his initials on it. Harvey is among the financial backers of a small restaurant in Beverly Hills called The Bistro, and together they hold court there. Harvey likes to sit facing the walls-they are all made of mirrors.
