Cher herself.  After more than seventy years of fighting to live her life on her own terms, Cher finally reveals her true story in intimate detail, in a two-part memoir.  Her remarkable career is unique and unparalleled. The only woman to top Billboard charts in seven consecutive decades, she is the winner of an Academy Award, an Emmy, a Grammy, and a Cannes Film Festival Award, and an inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame who has been lauded by the Kennedy Center.  She is a longtime activist and philanthropist.  As a dyslexic child who dreamed of becoming famous, Cher was raised in often-chaotic circumstances, surrounded by singers, actors, and a mother who inspired her in spite of their difficult relationship.]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3622332</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3622332</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Cher]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3622332040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Memoir, Part One</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780062863102/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[You Never Know]]></title><description><![CDATA[An American icon and famed actor brings us on his uncharted but serendipitous journey to the top in Hollywood, clearing up misconceptions; sharing dozens of never-before-told stories from both his personal and professional lives; and offering a truly fresh perspective on a changing industry and a changing world.]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3572815</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3572815</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Selleck, Tom]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3572815040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Memoir</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780062945761/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bogie & Bacall]]></title><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3323062</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3323062</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mann, William J.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3323062040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Surprising True Story of Hollywood&apos;s Greatest Love Affair</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780063026391/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[My Name Is Barbra]]></title><description><![CDATA["The long-awaited memoir by the superstar of stage, screen, recordings, and television Barbra Streisand is by any account a living legend, a woman who in a career spanning six decades has excelled in every area of entertainment. She is among the handful of EGOT winners (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony) and has one of the greatest and most recognizable voices in popular music. She has been nominated for a Grammy 46 times, and with Yentl she became the first woman to write, produce, direct, and star in a major motion picture. In My Name Is Barbra, she tells her own story about her life and extraordinary career, from growing up in Brooklyn to her first star-making appearances in New York nightclubs to her breakout performance in Funny Girl (musical and film) to the long string of successes in every medium in the years that followed. The book is, like Barbra herself, frank, funny, opinionated, and charming. She recounts her early struggles to become an actress, eventually turning to singing to earn a living; the recording of some of her acclaimed albums; the years of effort involved in making Yentl; her direction of The Prince of Tides; her friendships with figures ranging from Marlon Brando to Madeleine Albright; her political advocacy; and the fulfillment she's found in her marriage to James Brolin. No entertainer's memoir has been more anticipated than Barbra Streisand's, and this engrossing and delightful book will be eagerly welcomed by her millions of fans"--]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3344773</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3344773</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Streisand, Barbra]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3344773040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780525429524/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Extraordinary Life of An Ordinary Man]]></title><description><![CDATA["The raw, candid, unvarnished memoir of an American icon. Several years before he died in 2008, Paul Newman commissioned his best friend to interview actors and directors he worked with, his friends, his children, his first wife, his psychiatrist, and Joanne Woodward, to create an oral history of his life. After hearing and reading what others said about him, Newman then dictated his own version of his life. Now, this long-lost memoir--90% Newman's own narrative, interspersed with wonderful stories and recollections by his family, friends, and such luminaries as Elia Kazan, Tom Cruise, George Roy Hill, Martin Ritt--will be published. This book will surprise and even shock people, it reveals unknown sides of Paul Newman: funny and tragic, charming and insightful, personal and professional. Newman's traumatic childhood is brilliantly detailed: his terrible relationship with his mother (he says she always considered him purely a decoration, not an actual child), his complicated relationship with his father (who once insisted eight-year-old Paul walk home several miles with a broken leg). He talks with extraordinary honesty, insight and humor, about his insecurities as a teenager, his lack of success with women, his feelings of failure. Tales of his army years feel like a movie in itself. His college years, his early yearnings to be an actor, learning his craft, his acting rivals at the beginning of his career (Brando and Dean), his films (good and bad)--he spares no one, including himself. He discusses the complicated relationship he had with his first wife, his son Scott's death, and his guilt about that death. Perhaps the most moving material in the book comes when he discusses Joanne Woodward--their love for each other, his dependence on her, even their sexually charged life together"--]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3144483</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3144483</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Newman, Paul]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3144483040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Memoir</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593534502/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mean Baby]]></title><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3135320</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3135320</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Blair, Selma]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3135320040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Memoir of Growing up</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780525659495/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Elizabeth Taylor]]></title><description><![CDATA[No celebrity rivals Elizabeth Taylor’s glamour and guts or her level of fame. She was the last major star to come out of the old Hollywood studio system and she is a legend known for her beauty and her magnetic screen presence in a career that spanned most of the twentieth century and nearly sixty films. But her private life was even more compelling than her Oscar-winning on-screen performances. During her seventy-nine years of rapid-fire love and loss she was married eight times to seven different men. Above all, she was a survivor—by the time she was twenty-six she was twice divorced and once widowed. Her life was a soap opera that ended in a deeply meaningful way when she became the first major celebrity activist to lead the fight against HIV/AIDS. A co-founder of amfAR, she raised more than $100 million for research and patient care. She was also a shrewd businesswoman who made a fortune as the first celebrity perfumer who always demanded to be paid what she was worth. In the first ever authorized biography of the Hollywood icon, Kate Andersen Brower reveals the world through Elizabeth’s eyes. Brower uses Elizabeth’s unpublished letters, diary entries, and off-the-record interview transcripts as well as interviews with 250 of her closest friends and family to tell the full, unvarnished story of her remarkable career and her explosive private life that made headlines worldwide. Elizabeth Taylor captures this intelligent, empathetic, tenacious, volatile, and complex woman as never before, from her rise to massive fame at age twelve in National Velvet to becoming the first to negotiate a million-dollar salary for a film, from her eight marriages and enduring love affair with Richard Burton to her lifelong battle with addiction and her courageous efforts as an AIDS activist. Here is a fascinating and complete portrait worthy of the legendary star and her legacy.]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3144412</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3144412</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brower, Kate Andersen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3144412040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Grit &amp; Glamour of An Icon</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780063067653/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dying of Politeness]]></title><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3144323</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3144323</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Davis, Geena]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 31 Jan 2022 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3144323040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780063119130/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[John Wayne]]></title><description><![CDATA[Brief movie descriptions and quotes from John Wayne's movies, presented in magazine format.]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3131465</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3131465</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3131465040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Official Collector&apos;s Edition</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url/></item><item><title><![CDATA[Continuum]]></title><description><![CDATA["What constructs in your life must you unlearn to support inclusivity and respect for all?"

Jackson's embodiment of cool isn't just inspirational--it's important. Bad Motherfucker lays out how his attitude intersects with his identity as a Black man, why being cool matters in the modern world, and how Jackson can guide us through the current cultural moment in which everyone is losing their cool. Edwards details Jackson's fascinating personal history, from stuttering bookworm to gunrunning revolutionary to freebasing addict to A-list movie star. Drawing on original reporting and interviews, the book explores not only the major events of Jackson's life but also his obsessions: golf, kung fu movies, profanity. Bad Motherfucker features a delectable filmography of Jackson's movies--140 and counting!--and also includes new movie posters for many of Jackson's greatest roles, reimagined by dozens of gifted artists and designers. The book provides a must-read road map through the vast territory of his on-screen career and more: a vivid portrait of Samuel L. Jackson's essential self, as well as practical instructions, by example, for how to live and work and be.]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3128531</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3128531</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Edwards, Gavin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3128531040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Life and Movies of Samuel L.

It's also his guide to catching more greenlights-- and to realizing that the yellows and reds eventually turn green too. --]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3090597</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3090597</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[McConaughey, Matthew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3090597040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593139134/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Fay Wray and Robert Riskin]]></title><description><![CDATA[A Hollywood love story, a Hollywood memoir, a dual biography of two of Hollywood's most famous figures, whose golden lives were lived at the center of Hollywood's golden age, written by their daughter, an acclaimed writer and producer.]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3016730</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3016730</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Riskin, Victoria]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3016730040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Hollywood Memoir</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781524747282/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Doris Day]]></title><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3011491</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3011491</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3011491040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Celebrating An American Legend</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=&amp;issn=1537663X/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dutch Girl]]></title><description><![CDATA[Near the end of 1939, ten-year-old Audrey Hepburn flew from boarding school in England into the Netherlands, which would soon become a war zone.

On an airplane, with Parker as your seat companion, perhaps? Parker's irreverent, hilarious, and enchanting memoir gives you the incredible opportunity. Full of personal stories, whimsical how-tos, recipes, and beautiful handmade collages created by the author herself, You're On an Airplane is a delight in every way. In her first book, actress and star of movies such as Dazed and Confused, Party Girl, You've Got Mail, The House of Yes, and so many more, Posey opens up about the art of acting, life on the set, and the realities of its accompanying fame. A funny and colorful southern childhood prepared Posey for a life of creating and entertaining, which not only extends to acting but to the craft of pottery, sewing, collage, yoga, and cooking, all of which readers will find in this whimsical, hilarious, always entertaining book. Parker takes us into her childhood home, behind the scenes of the indie film revolution in the 90s, the delightful absurdity of the big-budget genre thrillers she's turned into art in a whole new way, and the creativity that will always be part of both her acting and her personal life. With Posey's memorable, hilarious, and poignant voice, her book gives the reader a feeling of traveling through not only a memoir, but an exploration, meditation, and celebration of what it means to be an artist. Buckle up and enjoy the journey.]]></description><link>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C2718714</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C2718714</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Posey, Parker]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2018 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://lethlib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2718714040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Self-mythologizing Memoir</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780735218192/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Marilyn Monroe]]></title><description><![CDATA[Based on new interviews and research, this ground-breaking biography reveals how Marilyn's childhood contributed to her struggle with bi-polar disorder, and impacted her career and personal life.
