Non-Fiction Memoir
A real Hollywood-style tell-all, this is the extremely
candid and highly explosive autobiography of one of the
movie industry's most talented and troubled young stars.
At age ten, Tatum O'Neal became the youngest Oscar
winner in history for her performance in the film classic
Paper Moon. As the sidekick to her father, the
flamboyant star and man-about-town Ryan O'Neal, she became a
fixture at the most glamorous Hollywood parties and counted
celebrities ranging from Cher to Stanley Kubrick among her
childhood friends. Yet behind the glittering façade
of Tatum's life lay heartbreak: abandonment, abuse, neglect,
and drug addiction. She reveals the most intimate secrets of
her dysfunctional relationships with her father, Ryan
O'Neal, and stepmother, Farrah Fawcett, as well as her
alcoholic mother, Joanna Moore, and ex-husband, tennis pro
John McEnroe. After the collapse of her marriage and
with no real family to turn to, Tatum succumbed to the
demons of her past that would nearly kill her. Now she has
emerged clean and sober, rediscovering herself as an
actress, mother, and wonderfully vibrant woman in what she
considers the prime of her life.
