Sheila Weller
Atria, 2008
Loved Girls Like Us
I loved this book. Being from the 60's generation I found myself actually being there with these real life enterainers. These singers and song writers were part of my youth and to read about their lives was such a treat. Sheila Weller has once again scored an A+.
