Description
Covering O'Donnell's life from her youth on Long Island to her breakout talk show, Gloria Goodman's biography chronicles Rosie's difficult childhood after her mother's death and her rise through the ranks of stand-up comedy. Goodman celebrates her present overwhelming popularity as the talk-show host who has changed the face of daytime television with her unique brand of kinder, gentler entertainment. From singing TV theme songs to celebrating her devotion to Tom Cruise to her triumphant interview with Barbra Streisand, Rosie is a wonderfully different kind of star, one whose irresistible love of show business shines through every day and lights up countless lives.
