Simon and Schuster, 2010 - Biography & Autobiography - 320 pages: A MEMOIR OF BETTY WHITE'S FIRST FIVE DECADES ON TELEVISIONAS IRREVERENT AND IRRESISTIBLE AS THE BELOVED ACTRESS HERSELF BETTY WHITE first appeared on television in 1949 and has gone on to have one of the most amazing careers in TV history, starring in shows such as Life with Elizabeth, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, and The Golden Girls, among many others. She is one of the hardest-working actresses of any era, and her sense of humor and perennial optimism have seen her through half a century of industry changes and delighted millions of fans. Now, during Betty's sixty-first year on screen, a year in which she has enjoyed a huge resurgence of popularity, her 1995 memoir makes a comeback too. Here We Go Again is a behind-the-scenes look at Betty's career from her start on radio to her first show, Hollywood on Television, to several iterations of The Betty White Show and much, much more. Packed with wonderful anecdotes about famous personalities and friendships, stories of Betty's off-screen life, and the comedienne's trademark humor, this deliciously entertaining book will give readers an entree into Betty's fascinating life, confirming yet again why we can't get enough of this funny lady. -- Susan 9/29 |

Perpetual
Performances of offense and defense, was in harmony for the Collinsville
Cardinals Thursday night, as there was no Eye of the Tiger
theme song, for the Coweta Tigers. The Cardinals put together a punishing
