Filled with stunning revelations, here is the sensational memoir of one of Hollywood's most talented and troubled stars-an inspirational true tale of survival and triumph against all odds
Though she has shunned the media spotlight, Academy Award-winning actress Tatum O'Neal at last goes on the record to tell her story-a tale of personal turmoil and ultimate triumph that is part Hollywood tell-all, part Greek tragedy, and part Shakespearean drama.
In her trademark no-holds-barred style, she names names as she chronicles the ups and downs of being Hollywood royalty, including
. her nearly fatal addiction to drugs
. her destructive relationships with mother, the late actress Joanna Moore; her famously overbearing and flamboyant father, Ryan O'Neal and his former longtime live-in love, Farrah Fawcett; and her wildly explosive ex-husband, international tennis pro John McEnroe
. her early years-a time of tubulence, loneliness, and abuse-as a virtual orphan forced to raise herself and her “Irish twin,” younger brother, Griffin
. her explosive, untold stories of the top figures in pop culture and sports
Ultimately, we see the emergence of an extremely gifted, spirited, and intelligent woman-the ultimate survivor who is a role model to all women.
