Description
A deeply personal and electrifying memoir by Ellen Burstyn, renowned actress and six-time Academy Award nominee.
By the time Ellen Burstyn arrived in New York to study acting, she’d already worked as a Texas fashion model, a Montreal chorus girl, suffered numerous toxic relationships, and just as many name changes and spiritual paths. Theater legend Moss Hart called her “a natural” but Ellen Burstyn was still trying to discover who she was. This is the graceful story of a personal and professional quest, a life-long journey-by turns triumphant and terrifying, tragic and funny, thoughtful and illuminating.Ellen Burstyn’s career has encompassed more than forty years on stage, in film, and on television. She’s been nominated six times for an Academy Award, winning the Best Actress Oscar in 1974 for Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore, as well as a Tony for her performance in Same Time, Next Year. She continues to serve as copresident of the Actors Studio in New York City.US
