In that time she moved among the world’s most famous and talented people. She speaks with wit, wisdom, and candor on topics both public and private, offering behind-the-sceens portraits of great personalities, telling of the advice older actors gave her and how she in turn gave advice. She treats us to delightful anecdotes about Ethel Barrymore, John Ford, Al Capone. At the same time she reflects more seriously on the painful parts of her life. And, finally, she expresses her strong views on what is wrong with the American theatre yesterday and what has always been wrong with Hollywood. An engrossing account of a rich, productive life.
