Publisher's Synopsis

In a book that is at once Hollywood hilarious and personally moving, Terri Garr, star of Young Frankenstein, Encounters of the Third Kind and Tootsie, for which she received an Academy Award nomination, writes about her life with the same wit and warmth she brought to the screen. From sipping Cokes with Elvis Presley to hanging out with the Beatles, from her success in Hollywood to the fear, denial and anxiety associated with the mysterious physical problems that have eluded diagnosis for over 20 years, this is the definitive account of a fascinating life.

About the Publisher

Plume

Plume was founded in 1970 as the trade paperback imprint of New American Library. In its early history, Plume focused primarily on nonfiction titles, publishing approximately 35 titles per year. In the early 1980s, as trade paperbacks were rapidly becoming the format of choice among a large segment of book buyers, Plume began expanding its reach, and became recognized as one of the pre-eminent trade paperback imprints. The 1980's saw Plume make its mark with a number of major bestsellers, including Toni Morrison's Tar Baby, Erica Jong's Fanny, Russell Baker's Growing Up, and Gloria Steinem's Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions, among others. Now, in 2014, Plume is publishing 85 to 100 titles a year, and its backlist currently encompasses approximately 700 titles.
