Summary:
"Growing up in an iconic Hollywood dynasty, Joely Fisher knew a show business career was her destiny. The product of world-famous crooner Eddie Fisher and '60s sex kitten Connie Stevens, she struggled with her own identity and place in the world on the way to her career as an actress, singer and director. She shares her unconventional coming of age and stories of the family members and co-stars dearest to her heart, while stripping bare her own misadventures. She recalls the beautifully bizarre twist of fate by which she spent a good part of her childhood next door to Debbie Reynolds. She speaks frankly about the realities of Hollywood - the fame and fortune and the constant scrutiny. She celebrates the anomaly of a two-decade marriage in the entertainment industry, and the joys and challenges of parenting five children, while dishing on what it takes to survive and thrive in the unrelenting glow of celebrity. She speaks frankly about how the loss of her half-sister Carrie Fisher became a source of artistic inspiration."--Provided by publisher.
"Joely Fisher is an American actress and singer. She is best known for her work on television as Paige Clark on Ellen as well as Joy Stark in the Fox sitcom 'Til Death. She is also known for singing on Broadway in the 1990s. She is the elder daughter of singer Eddie Fisher and actress Connie Stevens. Her younger sister is actress Tricia Leigh Fisher. She is the half-sister of actress Carrie Fisher from her father's previous marriage to actress Debbie Reynolds. Her parents divorced when she was age two, and she was raised by her mother"--From wikipedia.org website.
