Growing Up Fisher: Musings, Memories, and Misadventures

Autor Joely Fisher
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 noi 2017
Actress, director, entertainer Joely Fisher's touching, down-to-earth memoir filled with incredible, candid stories about her life, her famous parents, and how the loss of her unlikely hero, sister Carrie Fisher, ignited the writer in her.
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 a decades-long career as an acclaimed actress, singer, and director.
Now, Joely 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. In Growing Up Fisher, 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, the constant scrutiny. Throughout, 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 sister Carrie Fisher became a source of artistic inspiration.
Fisher’s memoir, with never-before-seen photos, will break and warm your heart.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

Growing up in an iconic Hollywood dynasty, Joely was destined to be in show business. The product of world-famous crooner Eddie Fisher and ’60s sex kitten Connie Stevens, and sister of Carrie Fisher, she struggled with her own identity on the path to establishing herself as an actress, singer, and director.
Now Joely shares stories of her unconventional coming-of-age and of the family members dearest to her heart, as she strips bare the misadventures of her life. She tells of a childhood spent living next door to Debbie Reynolds, life on the road with her mother, and the colorful characters that became part of her tribe. She speaks frankly about the realities of Hollywood, and throughout celebrates the anomaly of a two-decade marriage in the entertainment industry and the joys and challenges of parenting. She opens up about the heartbreak of losing family and the indomitable Fisher spirit that has kept her soldiering on.
