Summary: Kitty! A Fascinating Life Story Told by a Fascinating Lady
Comment: Before reading this book, I best knew Kitty Carlisle as the glamorous panelist on "To Tell the Truth" - but there's alot more to this lovely lady than guessing who the imposters are. Kitty did more in her first 15 years of life than most of us could do in 100 lifetimes! She is instantly loveable and speaks from the heart. While she's eager to talk about her successes, she's not afraid to share her most miserable failures with the reader - and she's had plenty of both. Her relationships, with her mother, her husband, Moss Hart and many of Hollywood and Broadway's biggest names are put on display for all to see. This book was by far, the biggest surprise autobiography I've ever read. It kept me turning pages from the first word. Highly recommended!
Rating: 4
Summary: An excellent memoir
Comment: A wonderful follow-up book to the highly acclaimed "Act One" by playwright Moss Hart (Carlisle's husband). A pretentious, over-bearing mother guides Kitty's career from childhood. Although Kitty herself claims that she was never very pretty, couldn't act very well and was at best, a mediocre singer, she still managed to have a movie career (not successful), several Broadway hits and finally a performance at the Metropolitan Opera. She became a staple of the Goodson-Todman game show, "To Tell the Truth" and these appearances are what she is best remembered for. Her marriage to Moss Hart allowed her access to some of the wittiest and cleverest writers, actors and performers of the day. The characters in the book are probably more interesting than Kitty herself, but her observations of them are charming and self-deprecating.
