Matthew Hild
An in-depth biography that closely examines the superstar’s multi-faceted career, personal life, advocacy, and legacy.
Olivia Newton-John was one of the biggest and most iconic global pop stars in history with estimated record sales of over 100 million and starring roles in several films, including Grease and Xanadu. Her hit “Physical” was ranked by Billboard as the most popular single of the 1980s. Behind all of this glitz and glamor was an extremely strong, kind, and resilient person with an unfailing, positive attitude in the face of personal tragedies and setbacks. For decades, she bravely and publicly battled breast cancer while continuing her career and advocated for environmental issues, animal rights, and LGBTQ+ rights.
This biography, based on extensive archival research and original interviews with many of her friends and associates, reveals the real person who was Olivia Newton-John. Matthew Hild provides many never-before-shared insights into the star’s life, including her humanitarianism and personal struggles, and dives deeply into her many famous records and lesser-known work, from her early start in Australia all the way to her last recording – a moving duet of “Jolene” with Dolly Parton.©2026 Matthew Hild (P)2026 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Recensioni della critica
Delves deep into the world of Newton-John . . . Stitching together new and archival interviews with some of her closest friends and colleagues, Hild charts her journey from a painfully shy girl growing up in England and Australia to a beloved entertainer.
Comprehensive and entertaining.
A gift for those hopelessly devoted to Newton-John.
Hild's detailed account of the singer's highs and lows leaves no stone unturned.
Matthew Hild offers the most comprehensive look at the way the late superstar’s music, fame, and humanity were intertwined. He delivers an immensely readable tome, offering a portrait of a woman who empowered others as she dissolved limitations the industry would attempt to inflict on female artists of the day. Feminist, humanist, and fan-forward, A Little More Love is the book the beloved Australian performer deserves. (Holly Gleason)
A moving, sensitively written story of Olivia Newton-John’s life and music. There are the giant pop culture moments like Grease and “Physical,” but Matthew Hild’s biography also shows what’s most profound is the work she did after the big hits and the legacy of her efforts with environmental issues and most particularly, breast cancer research. (Lucy O'Brien)
Olivia Newton-John was more than just a pop icon – she was a beacon of grace, strength, and joy. Her music continues to bring happiness to so many. A Little More Love brings readers even closer to her legacy and memory. (Courtney Act)
At long last, the definitive biography Olivia Newton-John always deserved. Matthew Hild follows the Australian pop star into the charts, into the movies, through her subsequent struggle to retain relevance, and her decline in health in a clear-eyed look at the life, loves, and music of one of the great pop vocalists of her time. (Joel Selvin)
If you were as curious as I was about Olivia Newton-John’s entire life, Matthew Hild does an amazing job of filling in the blanks. Olivia is Australia’s gift to the world! (Steve Binder)
