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.
