THERE ARE WORSE THINGS I COULD DO By: Adrienne Barbeau
Adrienne Barbeau never set out to be a sex symbol and she never intended to become the poster girl for women over 50 having babies, but both those stories and a lot more are detailed in this witty, revealing memoir of the Tony-nominated actress.

Non-Fiction Biography
This book covers Adrienne's early years in New York (βNo one said Mafia out loud in those days. There was always the fear you wouldnβt live to say anything else.β), to starring on Broadway in Grease (βAlexander Cohen swore the only way weβd win a Tony was over his dead bodyβ). She tells tales about her two hit television series (Maude and Carnivale), her many television and feature films (The Fog, Escape from New York, Cannonball Run, Swamp Thing, Back to School, Creepshow), her singing career (βDoc Severinson and the band had been in the audience during my nude foray off-Broadway in Stag Movieβ), her romance with Burt Reynolds, her marriage to director John Carpenter, and marrying a much younger man and giving birth to twins at age 51.
