Send Yourself Roses
Kathleen Turner
Springboard Press, February 2008
Biography / Memoir
Kathleen Turner's unique blend of beauty, intelligence, raw sexuality, and drive has propelled her career. Now, in this gutsy memoir, the screen icon reveals the risks she's taken and what she’s learned, both personally and professionally. From her film debut as the sultry schemer in Body Heat to her recent craft-stretching role as Martha in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, she shares behind-the-scenes stories of working with Jack Nicholson, Michael Douglas, Nicolas Cage, William Hurt, Steve Martin, Francis Ford Coppola, John Huston, John Waters, Ken Russell, and Edward Albee.
Turner also talks openly about the father she lost at a young age, her 20-year marriage (and recent separation), her successful struggle with rheumatoid arthritis, and how her life of activism refl ects her deeply-held beliefs. Her stories of triumph, along with humorous stories from her acting career, make for a wonderful read.
