Bad vibes at Motown double feature

Recently I finally read Call Her Miss Ross, which is considered to be THE book on Diana Ross. Author J. Randy Taraborrelli does an admirable job of showing Diana Ross' strong points as well as her less endearing qualities, so this isn't a total hatchet piece, but when you're done reading the book you'll be relieved you don't have to work for her or ( Read more... )

To be completely honest with y'all, I didn't even know that Maxine Brown had written an autobiography until a friend of mine let me borrow his copy. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Maxine, she was a member of the Browns, a sibling trio from Arkansas. The Browns were huge stars back in the '50s and '60s, but don't get much recognition ( Read more... )

I just finished the book "I Love The Illusion: The Life and Career of Agnes Moorehead". First off I must say that it really is a GREAT read. These are the kind of books that make me love biographies. It's informative but not boring. It's interesting but the author doesn't tell you a bunch of lies. For those of you who arn't farmiliar with who Agnes ( Read more... )

Coal Miner's Daughter

phyllisgabor wrote in celebritybooks Oct 02, 2005 21:05

This weekend I FINALLY got around to reading Loretta Lynn's 1976 autobiography Coal Miner's Daughter. It's a wonderful book, and my favorite of the handful of country singer autobiographies I've read so far. Loretta Lynn worked with a writer named George Vecsey, and while sometimes the "as told to" autobiographies are poorly edited or just plain ( Read more... )
